Strategy Tips

tee shot

Position your tee shot carefully in the 200-250 yard range where the fairway widens significantly from 34 yards to 45 yards. This extra 11 yards of width at the 250-yard mark gives longer hitters a strategic advantage and better angle into the green.

approach

Plan your approach to this substantial green measuring 4,708 square feet (23y x 38y). The green's rectangular shape provides multiple pin positions, so focus on the center-front portion to avoid long putts on what can be a tricky putting surface.

hazard warning

Beware of the greenside bunkers positioned at 392.3 and 430.6 yards from the tee. These strategically placed hazards guard the putting surface and can catch slightly mishit approach shots, especially the bunker at 430.6 yards which sits very close to the green.

tee shot

Conservative players should target the 200-yard zone where the fairway is 34 yards wide, ensuring they stay in play while leaving a manageable approach shot of around 235 yards to the center of this 435-yard par 4.

approach

With the green measuring 38 yards in length, pin position will greatly affect club selection. Factor in the extra depth when the pin is back, as you'll have nearly 40 yards of putting surface to work with from front to back.
