Strategy Tips

hazard warning

This hole presents an extreme strategic challenge with zero fairway width at both the 200-yard and 250-yard marks, creating a severe bottleneck that demands precise placement.

tee shot

With no designated landing zone from the tee and bunkers positioned at 118.9 and 185.1 yards, consider laying up short of the first bunker or playing a controlled fade/draw to find the narrow safe areas.

approach

The approach shot must navigate around the bunker at 195.5 yards while targeting a compact 3,819 square foot green measuring just 20 yards by 30 yards - precision is absolutely critical.

tee shot

Given the 421-yard total length and hazard placement, consider a two-shot strategy: hit a controlled iron off the tee to around 150 yards, leaving a mid-iron approach to the small green.

green

The green's modest 20-yard width means even slight misses will find trouble - prioritize hitting the center of the green over attacking pin positions on this demanding par 4.
