Strategy Tips

tee shot

This 240-yard par-3 demands precision club selection and accuracy. With no fairway width at 250 yards, any shot beyond the green complex will find trouble, making distance control critical for scoring.

hazard warning

Three strategically placed bunkers guard the approach at 188, 211, and 247 yards from the tee. The middle bunker at 211 yards sits directly in the prime landing area, requiring careful consideration of carry distance.

approach

Target the center of this generous 4,393 square foot green measuring 21 yards by 35 yards. The large putting surface provides margin for error, but pin position will dictate optimal approach angle.

tee shot

With the fairway width at 200 yards measuring 39 yards, shorter hitters can use this landing area as a bailout option, then play a short iron approach to the elevated green complex.

green

The green's 35-yard length provides different pin positions that can change the effective playing distance by 15-20 yards. Study pin placement to determine if you need to fly the front bunker at 188 yards or clear the back hazard at 247 yards.
