Strategy Tips

tee shot

The fairway widens significantly as you play longer - from 40 yards at 200 yards to 62 yards at 250 yards. Consider hitting driver or 3-wood to take advantage of the generous landing area further out, giving you better angles into this links-style green.

approach

Three strategic bunkers guard the approach at 309.6, 356.0, and 373.6 yards from the tee. From a 250-yard drive, you'll have a 168-yard approach that must carry the greenside bunker at 356 yards - plan your club selection carefully to clear this hazard.

green

The large green measures 6,801 square feet (29 yards by 39 yards), providing a generous target for approach shots. Use this size to your advantage by aiming for the center of the green rather than attacking pins, especially with the challenging bunkers protecting the entrance.

hazard warning

The bunker positioned at 373.6 yards creates a critical hazard for longer hitters. At 418 yards total length, this bunker sits just 44 yards from the green, making it a serious threat for approach shots that come up short or right.

tee shot

With the fairway being narrower at 200 yards (40 yards wide) compared to 250 yards, shorter hitters should consider playing aggressively with driver to reach the wider section, while longer hitters can throttle back with 3-wood for better positioning.
