Strategy Tips
This 157-yard par 3 demands precision over power. With no fairway to bail out to, you must hit the green or face challenging recovery shots from the surrounding areas.
Three strategically placed bunkers guard this hole at 92.9, 149.7, and 173.1 yards from the tee. The bunker at 149.7 yards is particularly dangerous as it sits right in the approach zone for most pin positions.
The generous green measures 4,691 square feet (23 yards by 51 yards), giving you a good target to aim for. Use the green's size to your advantage by playing to the center when pin positions are tucked behind hazards.
Club selection is critical on this all-carry hole. Consider the pin position and factor in the bunker at 173.1 yards - if the pin is back, you'll need enough club to clear this rear hazard.
With the front bunker positioned at just 92.9 yards, even shorter hitters need to ensure proper club selection. This front hazard can catch thin or mishit shots that come up well short of the green.
This par 3 is ideal for working on your mid-iron. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
