Strategy Tips

tee shot

This lengthy par 4 demands precision off the tee - the fairway measures just 40 yards wide at the 200-yard mark, requiring accurate placement to avoid trouble and set up your approach.

tee shot

Consider laying up with a 3-wood or long iron to the 200-yard zone rather than forcing driver - this keeps you in the narrower 40-yard corridor while still leaving a manageable approach to the 460-yard hole.

approach

If you can carry your drive past 250 yards, you'll benefit from a more generous 52-yard-wide fairway, giving you better angles and lie for your approach shot.

hazard warning

Two strategic bunkers guard the landing area at 442 and 445 yards from the tee - these are primarily in play for longer hitters who can reach this distance, so club selection is crucial.

green

The compact 4,992 square foot green (29x28 yards) rewards precision on your approach - focus on hitting the correct tier or section rather than just finding the putting surface.
