Hole 12 at TPC Four Seasons Las Colinas
Par 4 • 453 Yards • Irving, Texas
The 12th hole at TPC Four Seasons Las Colinas presents a deceptively challenging par 4 that demands both power and precision from the championship tees at 453 yards. This straight-away layout may appear straightforward, but its true test lies in the approach shot to a small, well-protected green complex. The generous fairway invites an aggressive tee shot, rewarding length with a shorter iron into the putting surface. However, the compact green requires surgical precision, as missing the target leaves challenging recovery shots from the surrounding collection areas. With its handicap ranking of 4, this hole consistently separates the field during tournament play, making it a pivotal scoring opportunity that can make or break a round at this prestigious Texas venue.

This 453-yard par 4 demands precision off the tee. With the fairway measuring just 12 yards wide at both the 200 and 250-yard marks, accuracy is more important than distance. Consider hitting a controlled 3-wood or long iron to ensure you find the short grass.
Bunkers positioned at 226.8 yards create a significant strategic challenge. If you're a longer hitter, throttle back your driver to stay short of these hazards, or ensure you can carry them completely with a confident swing.
After navigating the narrow fairway, you'll face a mid-to-long iron approach into a relatively small target. The green measures just 3,046 square feet (27x22 yards), so club selection and accuracy are crucial for setting up birdie opportunities.
The consistent 12-yard fairway width from 200 to 250 yards means there's no advantage to bombing your drive. Focus on finding the fairway first, as playing from the rough will make the already challenging approach shot even more difficult.
With the green dimensions at 27 yards deep and 22 yards wide, pin position will greatly influence your approach strategy. Aim for the center of the green when the pin is tucked, as the compact size leaves little room for error on aggressive shots.
This 453-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.
