The plan for No. 3
This inviting par 3 becomes a birdie chance only after the water around the front, right and back is respected.
Off the tee
Select the target by pin section, cover the front and default to middle-green when distance or wind is uncertain.
Approach & recovery
Favor a flight that lands softly enough to remain in the correct section.
On the green
The left ridge can feed a well-judged shot toward an accessible left hole location.
