Strategy Tips

tee shot

This signature par-3 plays 185 yards to a generous green measuring 9,852 square feet (50y x 38y). Club selection is critical - take one extra club to ensure you clear the water hazard and reach the putting surface safely.

hazard warning

Three bunkers guard the approach at 176.1, 207.7, and 217.1 yards from the tee. The bunker at 176.1 yards is particularly dangerous as it sits short of the green and can catch mis-hit shots that don't carry the full distance.

green

The large green at 9,852 square feet provides multiple pin positions and recovery options. With dimensions of 50 yards by 38 yards, aim for the center of the green rather than attacking tight pins, especially when the flag is near water or bunkers.

tee shot

With no fairway landing area (0 yards wide), this is a pure target golf shot that must carry directly to the green. Commit fully to your club selection and swing with confidence - tentative swings often find the water hazard.
