Strategy Tips

tee shot

This signature par 3 plays 223 yards to a compact green measuring just 31 yards by 23 yards. Club selection is critical - with wind being the key factor, take one club less when wind is behind you, but ensure you have enough club to clear the bunkers positioned at 238.7, 218.7, and 198.9 yards.

hazard warning

Three strategically placed bunkers guard the approach at 238.7, 218.7, and 198.9 yards from the tee. The closest bunker at 198.9 yards can catch conservative shots, while the furthest at 238.7 yards protects the back of the green. Plan your carry distance carefully based on pin position.

green

The green is quite small at only 4,001 square feet (31x23 yards), demanding precision over power. With slopes from front to back and right to left, aim for the center of the green unless the pin is accessible, as missing this target will leave difficult recovery shots.

approach

Since there's no fairway landing zone (0 yards from tee), this hole requires an all-carry shot to the green. Factor in the elevated tee position and potential wind conditions when selecting your club - the 223-yard distance can play significantly shorter or longer depending on conditions.

tee shot

With the green dimensions of just 31 yards long by 23 yards wide, there's little margin for error on distance control. Practice your yardages with mid-to-long irons, as being short or long of this compact target will result in challenging up-and-downs from surrounding hazards.
