Exercise caution off the tee as the fairway dramatically narrows to just 13 yards at the 200-yard mark before opening up to 46 yards at 250 yards. Consider laying up short of the narrow section or carrying a precise driver to the wider landing area.
With bunkers positioned at 360 and 535 yards from the tee, your second shot strategy is crucial on this 572-yard par 5. The first bunker comes into play around 160 yards from the green, so plan your layup accordingly to avoid trouble.
The green measures 39 yards deep by 23 yards wide (5,368 sq ft), providing a generous target for your approach. However, with bunkers at 535 and 557 yards, going for the green in two requires precise distance control to clear the greenside protection.
The final bunker at 556.6 yards sits very close to the green on this 572-yard hole, leaving minimal room for error on aggressive approaches. Consider the safe play to the center of the large green rather than attacking tight pin positions near the bunkers.
This 572-yard par 5 is ideal for working on your driver accuracy. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
