Strategy Tips

tee shot

This 578-yard par-5 demands precision off the tee as the fairway narrows significantly from 37 yards wide at 200 yards to just 30 yards at the 250-yard mark. Position your drive in the 200-250 yard range to set up the best angle for your second shot.

approach

Three strategic bunkers guard the approach zone at 533, 547, and 568 yards from the tee. Plan your second shot to avoid the bunker at 533 yards - laying up short of this hazard leaves you with a manageable wedge into the green.

green

The green measures 24 by 28 yards with 4,042 square feet of putting surface, making it a relatively generous target. This allows for aggressive play on your approach, especially if you've positioned yourself well with your first two shots.

hazard warning

The bunker positioned at 568 yards creates a significant risk-reward decision for longer hitters attempting to reach in two. Consider whether the potential reward justifies challenging this greenside hazard, or if a conservative three-shot strategy is wiser.

approach

With the fairway constricting to only 30 yards wide at 250 yards, consider using a 3-wood or hybrid off the tee to ensure accuracy and position yourself in the wider 37-yard section at 200 yards for optimal second shot placement.
