Strategy Tips

tee shot

Play aggressively down the right side to take advantage of the fairway's expansion - it widens from 55 yards at the 200-yard mark to 72 yards at 250 yards, giving longer hitters more room and a better angle into the green.

approach

Target the massive 10,085 square foot green with confidence, but be aware that greenside bunkers guard both sides at 414-415 yards - club selection is critical to clear these hazards while staying below the hole.

hazard warning

Avoid the left side at all costs - the ESA (Environmentally Sensitive Area) runs along the left with a dangerous 10-foot drop, where even a slight miss can lead to an unplayable lie and potential big number.

approach

With the green measuring 37 yards wide by 48 yards deep, focus on the correct tier - the ridge dividing the green into sectors means distance control is more important than direction on your approach shot.

tee shot

At 452 yards, this hole rewards precision over power - a well-placed drive in the 200-250 yard range sets up a manageable mid-iron approach while avoiding the greenside bunkers that sit just 414-415 yards from the tee.
