I can understand Scott's point, the 10th is at best ungainly and at worst, for those relying on the convential, an awful hole.  IMO, golf courses need holes like the 10th if only for controversy.  Liking or disliking the hole is immaterial.  That said, for flat bellies today, the hill can be carried making the hole a doddle...I have seen it done.

Scott:


As Adam alludes, one of the things about the 10th is that you don't have to hit the drive into the fairway.  The first time I played there, not realizing the distance to the neck [and with the rough down in December], I hit my drive onto the side of the hill and then got pin high with a "baseball swing" second shot as you aptly described it. 

...

As I discovered at Buda, this doesn't quite work so well for lefties. 😉

I’ve now played the hole a few times and the clearing work has really opened up the green from the landing area, there is still however plenty more scope to clear out more vegetation. I do believe the stream has been moved and expanded closer to the green and is not visible due to its angle from the landing area
