With the fairway widening from 36 yards at 200 yards to 43 yards at 250 yards, longer hitters should favor driver to take advantage of the more generous landing area in the 230-250 yard range, setting up a shorter approach to this 399-yard par 4.
The massive moss-draped oak tree becomes a major factor with right-side pin placements - plan your tee shot position carefully to avoid having to navigate over or under this iconic hazard on your approach to the generous 8,051 square foot green.
Target the left side of the fairway with your drive to give yourself the best angle into the green, especially when the pin is positioned right, as this will help you avoid the oak tree that affects 9 out of 10 players on this 399-yard hole.
The large green measuring 43 yards by 40 yards offers plenty of target area, so focus on club selection and distance control rather than precision - missing the green in regulation here can be more costly than being conservative with your approach.
Conservative players should consider laying up to the 200-yard mark where the fairway is 36 yards wide, leaving a manageable mid-iron approach while avoiding the risk of finding trouble further up the hole.
This 399-yard par 4 is ideal for working on your driver accuracy. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
