Strategy Tips

tee shot

The fairway widens significantly from the tee, expanding from 49 yards at the 200-yard mark to 69 yards at 250 yards. This gives longer hitters a distinct advantage - if you can carry your drive 250+ yards, you'll have much more room to work with and can be more aggressive off the tee.

approach

Beware of the fairway bunker positioned at 258.5 yards - this is prime landing area for many golfers' drives. Plan your tee shot to either lay up short of this hazard or carry it completely, as finding this bunker will severely compromise your approach to this 606-yard par 5.

approach

The bunker at 309.3 yards creates a strategic decision point for your second shot. If going for the green in two, you'll need to navigate around or over this hazard. Consider the risk-reward carefully, as the green measures only 4,495 square feet - relatively small for a par 5 target.

green

The compact green dimensions of 27 by 32 yards demand precision on your approach shots. At 606 yards, many players will be hitting mid to long irons into this target, making accuracy more challenging. Focus on hitting to the center of the green rather than attacking pins.

hazard warning

A final bunker guards the approach at 483.5 yards from the tee. This hazard comes into play for aggressive second shots or conservative third shots. Calculate your layup distances carefully to avoid finding sand when you're trying to set up an easy scoring opportunity.
