This 240-yard par 3 requires precise club selection and accuracy. With no fairway beyond 200 yards, you must carry your tee shot directly to the green or risk finding trouble in the rough or hazards.
The green measures 30 yards deep by 25 yards wide, providing a generous target for this long par 3. Aim for the center of the green to give yourself the best margin for error on all sides.
With the fairway narrowing to just 31 yards at the 200-yard mark, there's minimal room for a layup strategy. Commit to reaching the green with your tee shot rather than playing short.
The 3,363 square foot putting surface offers plenty of room to work with, so don't be afraid to be aggressive. This large green can accommodate shots that may not be perfectly struck.
Take one extra club for this 240-yard hole to ensure you clear any trouble short of the green. Better to be long on this spacious putting surface than short in potential hazards.
This par 3 is ideal for working on your long iron or hybrid. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
