Strategy Tips

tee shot

This 446-yard par-4 requires strategic positioning off the tee. The fairway is relatively narrow at 28 yards wide at the 200-yard mark, so accuracy is more important than distance. Consider a controlled 3-wood or hybrid to stay in the short grass and set up your approach.

approach

If you can carry your drive 250 yards, you'll find a much more generous fairway that opens up to 50 yards wide, giving you better angles into the green. This wider landing area allows for a more aggressive tee shot if you have the distance.

green

The green measures 24 yards by 32 yards (3,948 sq ft), providing a reasonably sized target for your approach. As noted by course knowledge, aim for the bowl in the middle of the green as it's the safest section, especially given the surrounding dunes and bunkering.

hazard warning

Be aware of bunkers positioned at 425 yards from the tee. These greenside bunkers, combined with the dunes surrounding the green, make accuracy crucial on your approach shot. Missing the green here can lead to difficult recovery shots.

approach

This hole plays slightly uphill to the green, so club up accordingly. With the green being your last oceanside hole at Spyglass Hill, take an extra club to ensure you clear the dunes and bunkering that protect the putting surface.
