Strategy Tips

tee shot

The tee shot requires extreme precision as the fairway completely disappears at the 200-yard mark, creating a forced layup scenario. Focus on accuracy over distance to stay in play.

approach

Your second shot becomes critical as the fairway opens to just 30 yards wide at the 250-yard mark. With the hole playing 30 feet downhill, club selection and trajectory control are essential for the approach.

hazard warning

Three strategic bunkers guard the green area at 509.9, 511.5, and 523.5 yards from the tee. These form the 'phalanx of front bunkers' that make holding the green extremely challenging on approach shots.

green

The relatively compact green measures 5,068 square feet (32x30 yards), making precision paramount. Combined with the downhill approach and front bunkers, focus on controlled distance rather than aggressive pin-hunting.
