Target your tee shot to carry 200 yards where the fairway is at its widest point of 36 yards, giving you the best angle and room for error on this 408-yard par 4.
Be aware of bunkers positioned at 200.4 yards from the tee - longer hitters should consider laying up short or ensuring they carry well past this hazard complex.
If you push your drive past 250 yards, you'll face a much tighter fairway at only 24 yards wide, making precise iron play crucial for your approach shot.
The generous green measures 4,917 square feet (32x26 yards), so don't be afraid to attack pins - there's plenty of room to work with even on slightly missed approaches.
With no forced carry from the landing zone at 0 yards from tee, focus on accuracy over distance to position yourself in the optimal 200-yard zone for the best approach angle.
