Strategy Tips

tee shot

This 167-yard par 3 demands precision over power. Club selection is critical - consider wind conditions and pin position when choosing between a smooth 7-iron or aggressive 8-iron to reach this compact target.

green

The green measures just 3,365 square feet (36 yards by 20 yards), making it one of the smaller targets on the course. Favor the center of the green rather than attacking tucked pins - the margin for error is extremely limited.

hazard warning

Beware of strategically placed bunkers at 177.9 and 166.5 yards from the tee. These Robert Trent Jones Sr. signature 'daunting green-side bunkers' guard the putting surface and will penalize both short and slightly long approaches.

approach

With the green being only 20 yards deep, distance control is more important than direction. A shot that's 10 yards long or short will likely find trouble, so take one extra club and swing smoothly for better distance control.
