Strategy Tips

tee shot

Target the 200-yard mark for optimal positioning, where the fairway offers a generous 36-yard landing area before narrowing to just 34 yards at the 250-yard mark.

hazard warning

Avoid the greenside bunker positioned at 361 yards - lay up short of this hazard if you can't confidently carry it, as it guards the front approach to the green.

approach

Plan your approach to this compact 3,520 square foot green (27x28 yards) - the relatively small target demands precision, especially from longer distances on this 453-yard par 4.

tee shot

Consider laying back to the 200-yard area rather than attempting to bomb it past 250 yards, as the fairway constricts from 36 to 34 yards width, making accuracy more critical than distance.

approach

With the back bunker positioned at 426 yards, be mindful of pin position - a back pin on this 453-yard hole leaves little margin for error between the bunker and green edge.
