Strategy Tips

hazard warning

This hole presents an extreme strategic challenge with no traditional fairway landing zones - the fairway width measures 0 yards at both the 200-yard and 250-yard marks, indicating either a forced carry or severe pinch point that demands precise positioning.

tee shot

With no viable landing zone from the tee (0 yards), consider this a strategic layup hole where positioning for your second shot is more important than distance - focus on finding the safest angle of attack rather than trying to reach an unreachable fairway.

approach

Three bunkers positioned at 406, 448, and 449 yards create a defensive wall around the green area on this 456-yard par 4 - plan your approach to avoid these closely-grouped hazards that guard the final 50 yards to the pin.

green

The relatively small green measuring 4,345 square feet (31x22 yards) demands accuracy on your approach shot, especially given the bunker protection - prioritize finding the correct tier or section rather than attacking pins.

approach

At 456 yards, this par 4 will likely require two precise shots to reach the green in regulation - with the bunkers clustered at 406-449 yards, your second shot will need to clear or avoid these hazards while hitting a small target.
