Target the 200-yard mark with your tee shot to find the narrowest part of the fairway at 37 yards wide. This positioning sets up the best angle for your approach while avoiding the fairway bunkers clustered around 360-377 yards.
From the ideal 200-yard tee shot position, you'll have approximately 214 yards remaining to a generous green measuring 33 by 31 yards. The large green surface of 5,288 square feet allows for aggressive pin-hunting with mid-irons.
Avoid the driver temptation - three fairway bunkers positioned between 360-378 yards will catch aggressive tee shots. The fairway actually widens to 50 yards at the 250-yard mark, but getting there requires threading between these hazards.
For longer hitters, a controlled 3-wood or hybrid to the 250-yard area opens up the fairway to its widest point at 50 yards, but requires precise accuracy to clear the bunker complex.
The substantial green dimensions of 33 by 31 yards provide excellent scoring opportunities on this 414-yard par-4. Focus on pin position and use the green's size to your advantage for approach shot strategy.
This 414-yard par 4 is ideal for working on your driver accuracy. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
