Strategy Tips

tee shot

The fairway measures just 31 yards wide at the 200-yard mark, so prioritize accuracy on your tee shot. Players who can carry it past 250 yards will find a much more generous 43-yard wide landing area.

hazard warning

Two bunkers guard the approach at 367.3 and 383.2 yards, sitting just short of this 392-yard green. Club selection on your approach must account for these hazards to avoid a costly sand shot.

approach

With the second bunker at 383.2 yards leaving only about 9 yards to clear before the green, take one extra club on your approach to ensure you carry both hazards comfortably rather than landing short.

green

This is a small green at 4968 square feet (24 x 36 yards), so precision trumps power on the approach - missing the putting surface here often means a difficult up-and-down from tight surrounds.
