Strategy Tips

tee shot

This 218-yard par 3 demands precise club selection and commitment. With water that must be carried off the tee and the downhill nature of the shot, take one less club than the yardage suggests to account for the elevation change and ensure you clear the hazard confidently.

hazard warning

Three strategic bunkers guard the approach at 123, 199, and 205 yards from the tee. The front bunkers at 199-205 yards are positioned to catch shots that clear the water but come up short of the green, making distance control crucial on this demanding long iron test.

green

The generous 6,796 square foot green measuring 29 by 43 yards provides a large target, but the putting surface is bisected by a central mound. Study the pin position carefully - shots to the wrong tier can leave extremely difficult two-putts across this divided green.

approach

With no fairway landing zone available, this is an all-carry shot that epitomizes Donald Ross's philosophy of testing exceptional long-iron play. Commit fully to your club selection and swing - tentative swings will find the water or front bunkers.

green

The 43-yard depth of this green works in your favor on this downhill shot, but be aware that the central mound creates distinct pin positions. Favor the center of whichever tier the pin is on rather than going directly at tight pins near the mound.
