Strategy Tips

tee shot

Position your tee shot carefully on this 419-yard par 4, as the fairway narrows significantly from 61 yards wide at the 200-yard mark to just 51 yards at 250 yards. A controlled drive of 220-240 yards will leave you in the optimal position while avoiding the narrowest section.

approach

Your approach shot will play to a compact green measuring just 3,747 square feet (26 yards by 23 yards). With such a small target, prioritize accuracy over distance - consider taking one more club to ensure solid contact and proper distance control.

hazard warning

Be aware of the greenside bunkers positioned at 395.7 and 402.2 yards from the tee. These guard the putting surface on this signature hole where the ocean serves as a backdrop hazard, making recovery shots particularly challenging.

tee shot

There's a fairway bunker at 213.6 yards that can catch longer hitters or those who get aggressive off the tee. Club down if necessary to stay short of this hazard while still leaving a manageable approach distance.

green

The green's dimensions of 26 yards by 23 yards make it one of the smaller targets you'll face. Focus on hitting to the center of the green rather than attacking pin positions, especially given the ocean hazard and historical significance of this Donald Ross-designed hole.
