Strategy Tips

tee shot

Target the center of the fairway with your tee shot, as the landing area narrows significantly to just 26 yards wide at the 200-yard mark. In the variable coastal winds at Seaside, this narrow window demands precision over distance.

approach

green

The green measures 26 yards by 37 yards (5,148 square feet), providing a generous target for approach shots. Use this size to your advantage by aiming for the center of the green, especially when coastal winds are gusting.
