With the fairway measuring just 29 yards wide at the 200-yard mark, accuracy is paramount off the tee. Consider hitting a controlled 3-wood or hybrid to stay in the short grass and set up a manageable approach shot.
The bunkers positioned at 355 yards create a strategic decision point - aggressive drivers who carry 280+ yards need to account for these hazards when planning their approach to this 389-yard par 4.
The green measures 23 yards by 35 yards (4,926 sq ft), making it a relatively compact target. Club selection should prioritize accuracy over distance, especially considering the historical significance of this bayside layout.
The fairway maintains consistent width with only 1 yard difference between the 200-yard (29y) and 250-yard (28y) marks, so distance control rather than directional variance should be your primary concern off the tee.
Given Coronado's unique history of being built on dredged bay fill and the course's proximity to water hazards, be aware of out-of-bounds situations and remember the local rule: accept a 2-shot penalty and take relief in the fairway where the ball crossed the boundary.
This 389-yard par 4 is ideal for working on your driver accuracy. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
