Target a conservative 200-yard tee shot to stay in the 24-yard wide fairway and avoid the bunkers positioned at 269 yards - this leaves a manageable approach while keeping you out of trouble.
Beware of the bunkers located at 269 yards from the tee - a driver or strong 3-wood could easily find these hazards, making distance control crucial off the tee.
After a 200-yard tee shot, you'll face approximately 182 yards to the pin - perfect for a mid-iron approach to the compact 4,301 square foot green.
The green measures just 24 yards by 31 yards, making it a relatively small target that demands precision on your approach shot - club selection and accuracy are more important than distance.
With the fairway maintaining 24 yards of width at both 200 and 250 yards, longer hitters can be aggressive if they can carry the 269-yard bunkers, but the risk-reward favors a controlled approach.
This 382-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.
