Strategy Tips

tee shot

This 176-yard par-3 demands precision over distance - focus on club selection that ensures you carry the water hazard while avoiding the long green that stretches 52 yards from front to back.

green

The massive 5,429 square foot green measuring 24 yards wide by 52 yards long requires careful pin location study - a front pin versus back pin can mean a 2-3 club difference in selection.

hazard warning

Avoid the bunker positioned at 150.5 yards - while it's short of the green, mishit shots or conservative play can find this sand trap and create a difficult up-and-down.

approach

With no fairway landing zone available, this is a pure carry shot to the green - take one extra club to ensure you clear any water hazard and reach the putting surface safely.

green

The 24-yard width of this green provides a generous target, but focus on the correct tier - aim for the center of the green when pin position is unknown to avoid three-putting on this expansive surface.
