Strategy Tips

tee shot

At just 347 yards, this short par 4 offers a strategic decision off the tee. The fairway widens significantly from 30 yards at the 200-yard mark to 42 yards at 250 yards, so longer hitters can take advantage of the extra room by carrying their drive past 200 yards for a more generous landing area.

approach

With bunkers positioned at 219 yards from the tee, most golfers will have cleared these hazards with their tee shot, leaving a short iron approach of 100-130 yards to a compact green measuring just 32 yards by 22 yards - precision over power is key for this approach shot.

green

The green's modest size of 4,284 square feet demands accurate approach shots. Missing this target will likely result in difficult up-and-down opportunities, so club selection should prioritize hitting the center of the green rather than attacking pins.

hazard warning

Bunkers are strategically placed at 219 yards from the tee, which means conservative players hitting 3-wood or hybrid off the tee need to be aware of this distance to avoid finding sand with their tee shot.

tee shot

Consider laying up with a mid-iron to the 200-yard mark where the fairway is narrowest at 30 yards wide, leaving yourself a comfortable wedge into the small green rather than risking the tighter landing area with a longer club.
