Strategy Tips

tee shot

At 432 yards, this is TPC Deere Run's longest par 4 and demands precision off the tee. Target the center of the fairway which maintains 44 yards of width at the 200-yard mark, giving you the best angle for your approach through the trees.

tee shot

For longer hitters reaching the 250-yard area, be aware the fairway narrows to just 40 yards wide. Consider laying back to the 200-yard zone for a safer, wider landing area rather than risking the rough on this demanding hole.

approach

Your approach shot must navigate through trees to reach a relatively small green of only 6,416 square feet. Club selection is critical - favor the center of this 50-yard long, 25-yard wide target rather than attacking pins.

hazard warning

Three strategic bunkers guard the approach at 400, 417, and 439 yards from the tee. The bunker at 439 yards is particularly dangerous as it sits just short of the green, so ensure you have enough club to clear it.

green

With the green measuring just 25 yards wide, precision is paramount on your approach. The compact target requires committed club selection and favors players who can control distance rather than those who rely purely on power.
