Strategy Tips
Club selection is critical on this 179-yard par 3 - take one extra club to ensure you clear the bunkers positioned at 132 yards and reach the putting surface with confidence.
Beware of the bunker complex at 132 yards - coming up 47 yards short of this par 3 will leave you in sand with a challenging up-and-down to save par.
Target the center of this compact 4,725 square foot green measuring 32x23 yards - the relatively small target rewards accuracy over aggressive pin-hunting.
With no fairway landing area available, this is a pure aerial shot requiring precise distance control to a green that's only 23 yards deep - focus on smooth tempo and solid contact.
The green's 32-yard width provides more forgiveness left-to-right than front-to-back, so prioritize getting your distance right over perfect lateral accuracy.
This par 3 is ideal for working on your mid-iron. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
