Strategy Tips

tee shot

Play conservatively off the tee to the 200-yard mark where the fairway is only 52 yards wide. This narrow landing zone requires precision over distance, making a controlled driver or 3-wood the smart play to avoid trouble.

approach

If you can carry your tee shot to the 250-yard area, you'll benefit from a much wider fairway at 72 yards, giving you better angles and more room for error on this 403-yard par 4.

hazard warning

Be aware of the bunker positioned at 271.5 yards from the tee - longer hitters who try to bomb their drive could find this sand trap, especially if they're slightly off-line in the narrower fairway section.

approach

Plan your approach to this compact green measuring just 4,070 square feet (31x25 yards). The small target demands accuracy over aggression - take one more club and swing smoothly for better distance control.

green

Watch out for the greenside bunker at 149.9 yards - this hazard protects the putting surface and can catch short approach shots. Factor this into your club selection and aim for the center of the green.
