Strategy Tips

tee shot

Target your tee shot to land around the 200-yard mark where the fairway is narrowest at just 29 yards wide. This positions you perfectly for your approach while avoiding the fairway bunkers positioned at 259 yards.

approach

From the optimal driving distance, you'll face a mid-iron approach of approximately 245 yards to a generous green measuring 5,379 square feet. The green's 34-yard width provides a forgiving target for this demanding second shot.

hazard warning

Avoid the aggressive driver on this 445-yard par 4. Three bunkers cluster between 259-308 yards, making length dangerous. The bunker at 259 yards is particularly penal for players who bomb drives beyond the narrow 200-yard landing zone.

tee shot

Consider laying back with a 3-wood or long iron to the 200-yard area. While the fairway opens up to 34 yards at 250 yards, the risk of finding the bunkers at 259, 305, and 308 yards makes the conservative play the smart percentage shot.

green

The green's compact dimensions of 34 yards wide by 30 yards deep reward precise approach shots. Despite its generous 5,379 square foot area, pin position will dictate your target on this well-bunkered putting surface typical of Copperhead's demanding design.
