tee shot

Target your tee shot to the 200-yard mark where the fairway is only 12 yards wide - consider a 3-wood or hybrid to ensure you stay in the short grass.

green

Aim for the center of this small 3,920 square foot green measuring just 28x25 yards - missing this target will likely result in difficult up-and-down opportunities.
