Target the center-left of the fairway for your tee shot, as the fairway widens significantly from 54 yards at the 200-yard mark to 62 yards at 250 yards, giving longer hitters more room to work with.
Be aware of the fairway bunker positioned at 262 yards - this will catch aggressive drives, so consider laying up with a 3-wood or hybrid if you typically drive 270+ yards.
With the green measuring 25 yards wide by 33 yards deep and totaling 4,739 square feet, this is a generous target that rewards aggressive approach shots from the fairway.
Avoid the greenside bunker at 372 yards by favoring the right side of the green on your approach - this bunker guards the left side and can complicate up-and-down opportunities.
The early fairway bunker at 133 yards should not be a concern for most golfers, but serves as a good aiming point for shorter hitters to ensure they stay in the fairway's 54-yard width at 200 yards.
This 404-yard par 4 is ideal for working on your driver accuracy. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
