Strategy Tips
Club selection is critical on this 164-yard par-3. With the green measuring 27 yards wide by 33 yards deep, you have a decent target, but precision is still key to avoid the surrounding trouble.
Two bunkers guard the green at 152.7 and 145.1 yards from the tee. These are positioned short of the green, so ensure you take enough club to clear them and reach the putting surface.
The green offers 4,796 square feet of putting surface, which is moderately sized. With dimensions of 27 by 33 yards, aim for the center of the green to give yourself the best chance for birdie while avoiding short-side pin positions.
With the green being 33 yards deep, pay attention to pin position. A back pin will play longer than the yardage suggests, while a front pin position requires precision to avoid the bunkers at 145-153 yards.
This par 3 is ideal for working on your mid-iron. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
