This demanding 215-yard par 3 requires precision club selection and commitment to your target line. With no bailout areas, focus on smooth tempo and solid contact rather than trying to overpower the shot.
Two strategic bunkers guard the approach at 208.7 and 178.6 yards from the tee, positioned to catch both slightly short and well-short shots. Ensure your club selection carries these hazards with confidence.
The compact 3,344 square foot green measuring 19x30 yards demands accuracy over distance. Aim for the center of the green and let your natural shot shape work toward pin positions.
With the fairway measuring only 26 yards wide at the 200-yard mark, there's minimal room for error on this one-shot hole. Commit fully to your target and trust your swing.
Consider taking one extra club and making a smooth, controlled swing rather than forcing a shot. The relatively narrow green dimensions (19x30 yards) reward precision over power on this challenging par 3.
This par 3 is ideal for working on your long iron or hybrid. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
