Enhanced Content

Brutal

The third-ranked handicap hole at Jimmie Austin Golf Course demands both power and precision from the championship tees. This straight par 4 stretches 460 yards through Oklahoma's rolling terrain, presenting a deceptively challenging test that separates skilled players from the field. The generous fairway might appear forgiving off the tee, but the real challenge emerges on the approach shot to a small, well-protected green complex. Without significant hazards to navigate, success hinges purely on execution and course management. The compact putting surface rewards accurate iron play while punishing wayward approaches with difficult recovery shots. This hole exemplifies strategic golf design, where length and precision must work in harmony to secure par.

Strategy Tips

tee shot

With the fairway measuring only 12 yards wide at both 200 and 250 yards, accuracy is paramount off the tee. Consider hitting a controlled 3-wood or hybrid to stay in the narrow landing zone rather than forcing a driver.

approach

From 460 yards total length, expect a mid to long iron approach shot after a conservative tee shot. The generous green size of 4583 square feet gives you room to work with, so focus on finding the putting surface rather than attacking pins.

tee shot

The extremely narrow fairway width of just 12 yards at your typical landing zones means course management is crucial. Lay up to around 180-200 yards to avoid the tightest section and leave a manageable approach.

green

The green's dimensions of 26 yards by 30 yards provide a decent target, but with such a demanding tee shot, prioritize hitting the green center and take your two-putt par on this challenging hole.

hazard warning

While no bunkers are identified, the primary hazard is missing the ultra-narrow 12-yard fairway. With rough or trees likely flanking this tight corridor, staying in bounds is more important than distance on this demanding par 4.
