Strategy Tips

tee shot

The fairway dramatically widens from 32 yards at 200 yards to 62 yards at 250 yards, so longer hitters should favor driver to reach the generous landing area and set up a shorter approach to this compact green.

approach

With the green measuring just 4,264 square feet (36x21 yards), precision is critical on your approach shot - this is a relatively small target that demands accurate iron play rather than aggressive distance.

hazard warning

Three strategic bunkers guard this hole at 211, 298, and 362 yards - the bunker at 211 yards can catch conservative tee shots, while the 298-yard bunker threatens longer drives that don't reach the wider fairway section.

tee shot

Conservative players should aim for a 180-200 yard tee shot to avoid the 211-yard bunker, but this leaves you playing from the narrow 32-yard section of fairway with a longer approach to the small green.

approach

At 404 yards total length, most players will have a mid-iron approach shot - focus on the center of the 21-yard wide green rather than attacking pins, as the compact dimensions leave little room for error.
