Strategy Tips

tee shot

This 241-yard par-3 demands precision off the tee - there's no fairway landing zone, so your tee shot must carry directly to the green or risk finding trouble.

hazard warning

Beware of bunkers positioned at 221 and 226 yards - these guard the front approaches to the green and will catch any slightly short shots on this long par-3.

approach

Club up for the full 241 yards - this hole plays every bit of its distance and you'll need to carry the bunkers short of the green to find the putting surface.

green

Target the center of this generous 4,453 square foot green (27x27 yards) - the large putting surface gives you margin for error on your approach shot.

tee shot

Take one extra club than the yardage suggests - better to be long on this hole than short in the bunkers, especially with the generous green size providing a safe landing area.
