This 236-yard par 3 demands precision off the tee - there's no fairway landing area, so you must carry your tee shot directly to the green or risk finding trouble in the surrounding rough.
Bunkers positioned at 236.5 yards create a serious threat for longer hitters - since the hole plays 236 yards, any shot that carries beyond the green will likely find sand.
The generous green measuring 5,727 square feet (41 yards deep by 23 yards wide) provides a reasonable target, but club selection is critical to avoid the back bunkers just half a yard past the green's back edge.
With the fairway completely disappearing by 250 yards and only 12 yards wide at the 200-yard mark, there's no bail-out area short of the green - commit fully to carrying the ball to the putting surface.
This par 3 is ideal for working on your long iron or hybrid. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
