Strategy Tips

tee shot

Position your tee shot carefully between 200-220 yards to avoid the bunkers at 248.7 and 263.4 yards while taking advantage of the 52-yard wide fairway at the 200-yard mark. This strategic placement sets up an ideal approach angle for your second shot.

green

The compact 4,700 square foot green (26 x 29 yards) demands precision on your approach shot. Pine Valley-inspired design means this target will be well-defended, so focus on hitting the center of this relatively small putting surface.
