Strategy Tips

tee shot

Target the wider landing area at 250 yards for optimal positioning. The fairway expands from 39 yards at 200 yards to 54 yards at 250 yards, giving you 15 additional yards of margin and a better angle into the green.

hazard warning

Avoid the right side at all costs - out of bounds runs along the cart path on the right and behind the green. With bunkers positioned at 329, 352, and 363 yards, any shot trending right puts you in serious trouble.

approach

From 250 yards out, you'll have a manageable approach of 116 yards to a generous green measuring 3,897 square feet. This gives you room to aim away from the pin and still have a reasonable birdie putt.

green

The green's dimensions of 28 yards by 24 yards provide a forgiving target, but club selection is critical since going long means out of bounds. Aim for the center-left portion to avoid trouble.

approach

At 366 yards total length, this short par-4 rewards accuracy over distance. Consider laying up to your favorite wedge distance rather than trying to get too close to the heavily bunkered green complex.
