Strategy Tips

tee shot

Focus on accuracy over distance off the tee. The fairway maintains a consistent 36-yard width at both 200 and 250 yards, so prioritize finding the short grass with a controlled driver or 3-wood to set up your approach.

approach

Plan your approach carefully to this substantial green complex. At 6,680 square feet (35x30 yards), the green offers plenty of target area, but pin position will dictate club selection and landing spot for your second shot.

hazard warning
