This hole requires precision over distance from the tee. With the fairway completely pinched off at 200 yards, you'll need to lay up short or carry well beyond to find the fairway that opens to 67 yards wide at 250 yards.
For longer hitters, a driver or 3-wood that carries 250+ yards will find the generous fairway that opens to 67 yards wide, setting up an ideal approach angle to the green.
Two bunkers guard the approach area at 319 and 338 yards from the tee. These hazards will catch aggressive second shots, so club selection and accuracy are crucial for your approach.
With bunkers positioned at 319 and 338 yards, your approach shot will need to navigate these hazards. From a 250-yard drive, you'll have roughly 100 yards to a moderately-sized green.
The green measures 30x29 yards with 4,034 square feet of putting surface - a medium-sized target that rewards accurate approach shots but offers reasonable margin for error once you're on the correct tier.
This 352-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.
