Strategy Tips

tee shot

Target the center-left of the fairway on your tee shot, as the landing area widens from 38 yards at 200 yards to 41 yards at 250 yards. This gives you more room to work with on longer drives while avoiding the bunker complex that begins at 221.6 yards.

hazard warning

Three strategic bunkers guard the fairway between 221.6 and 255.9 yards from the tee. Plan your tee shot distance carefully - either lay up short of 220 yards or carry past 256 yards to avoid this hazard cluster entirely.

approach

On this 512-yard par 5, most players will have a mid to long iron for their second shot. Focus on position over distance, setting up an ideal angle for your third shot to the compact 4,641 square foot green.

green
