Strategy Tips

tee shot

This 187-yard par 3 demands a precise club selection to carry the trio of bunkers guarding the front and sides of the green. The bunker at 140.4 yards is the first hazard in play, so ensure your tee shot carries at least 155-160 yards to clear it safely.

hazard warning

Bunkers at 163.1 and 179.3 yards flank the approach into the green, effectively pinching the landing area. Players should favor a club that carries between 165-178 yards to thread the gap between these two hazards.

green

With a small green measuring only 3,614 square feet (30 yards by 21 yards), accuracy is paramount. Missing the putting surface, even slightly, will likely leave a difficult up-and-down from the surrounding bunkers.

approach

Given the green's narrow 21-yard depth, club selection should account for pin position—short pins require extra precision to avoid the 140.4-yard bunker, while back pins demand carrying the 179.3-yard hazard.

tee shot

Higher-handicap players should consider laying up short of the 140.4-yard bunker and relying on a strong wedge game, rather than risking a mis-hit into the bunker complex protecting this small green.
