Position your tee shot carefully on this 426-yard par 4, as the fairway narrows to just 29 yards at the 200-yard mark. A well-struck driver or 3-wood to this distance sets up the ideal approach angle.
Be aware of the greenside bunkers positioned at 297 yards from the tee. These hazards guard the approach area and can catch longer drives or mishit approach shots on this classic 1925 Macan design.
If you can carry your drive past the 200-yard narrow section, you'll find the fairway opens up to 34 yards wide at 250 yards, giving you more room to work with for your approach shot positioning.
Target the center of this moderately-sized green measuring 25 yards by 21 yards. With 2,970 square feet of putting surface, there's adequate room for error, but precision is still rewarded on this historic layout.
Two additional bunkers are positioned very close to each other at 404.5 and 404.2 yards from the tee, likely protecting the back of the green. Avoid going long on your approach to stay clear of these well-placed hazards.
This 426-yard par 4 is ideal for working on your driver accuracy. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
