Strategy Tips

tee shot

With the fairway measuring a generous 80 yards wide at both the 200 and 250-yard marks, you have plenty of room to find the short grass. Focus on position over power - a controlled drive with a 3-wood or hybrid will leave you in perfect position for your approach.

approach

At only 336 yards total, most golfers will have a short iron into this compact green measuring just 26 yards by 21 yards. The small target demands precision - club up and swing smooth to ensure you stay on the putting surface.

green

The green's modest size of 3,163 square feet means there's little margin for error on your approach. Study the pin position carefully and aim for the center of the green to avoid short-siding yourself.
