Strategy Tips

tee shot

With the fairway measuring 38 yards wide at 200 yards, this downhill par 4 offers a generous landing area for your drive. Aim for the center-left portion of the fairway to set up the best angle for your approach to the 448-yard hole.

tee shot

The fairway actually widens to 42 yards at the 250-yard mark, so longer hitters can be aggressive off the tee. The downhill nature of this hole will add distance to your drive, potentially reaching this wider section.

hazard warning

Be aware of the fairway bunker positioned at 304 yards from the tee. With the downhill slope adding roll to your drive, even moderate hitters could find this hazard if they're not careful with their aim.

approach

The green measures 30 by 34 yards (5,461 square feet), providing a reasonably sized target. However, with a bunker guarding the right side at 470 yards, favor the left side of the green with your approach shot.

green

Two greenside bunkers positioned at 469 and 470 yards frame the putting surface. The right bunker mentioned in course descriptions requires precise distance control on your approach to this 448-yard hole to avoid short-siding yourself.
