Target the center of the fairway with your tee shot, as the landing zone maintains a generous 38 yards of width at the 200-yard mark. This gives you ample room to find the short grass and set up your approach.
For longer hitters reaching the 250-yard area, be aware that the fairway narrows slightly to 36 yards wide. Position your drive to avoid being caught between hazards on this 407-yard par 4.
Plan your approach shot carefully to this compact green measuring just 3,370 square feet. The small target (20 yards by 30 yards) demands precision with your iron selection and course management.
Exercise extreme caution with bunkers positioned at 407.6 yards from the tee - essentially right at the green complex. Any approach shot that comes up short or wayward could find these strategically placed sand traps.
With the green dimensions of 20 by 30 yards, focus on hitting to the correct tier and leaving yourself below the hole. Robert Trent Jones Sr.'s design likely features multiple levels that can create challenging putts if you're on the wrong section.
This 407-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.
