Strategy Tips

tee shot

Position your tee shot strategically in the 250-yard landing zone where the fairway opens to its widest point at 56 yards. This gives you maximum room for error and the best angle into the green on this demanding 495-yard par 4.

approach

With bunkers positioned at 405 and 478 yards, your approach shot will likely be from around 200-250 yards out. The compact 4,084 square foot green (17y x 36y) demands precision - club up and aim for the center to avoid short-siding yourself.

tee shot

Avoid the temptation to bomb your drive on this 495-yard hole. The fairway narrows significantly to just 46 yards at the 200-yard mark, so accuracy trumps distance off the tee.

hazard warning

Be aware of the greenside bunker at 478 yards - just 17 yards short of the full hole length. This hazard can catch aggressive approach shots, so ensure you have enough club to clear it safely.

green
