Exercise extreme caution off the tee - the fairway pinches dramatically to just 3 yards wide at the 200-yard mark. Consider laying up with a shorter iron or hybrid to stay short of this bottleneck and ensure you find the fairway.
If you can carry your drive 250+ yards consistently, the fairway opens up significantly to 32 yards wide at that distance, providing a much safer landing area for longer hitters.
Be aware of bunkers positioned at 410.9 yards from the tee - while unlikely to come into play for most golfers on this 417-yard hole, aggressive players attempting to drive close to the green need to account for this hazard.
Plan your approach to this par 4 carefully - at 417 yards total length, you'll likely have a mid to short iron into a generously-sized green measuring 4,772 square feet.
The green's rectangular dimensions of 34 yards by 26 yards provide a good target, but pin position will be crucial for approach shot strategy - aim for the center of this sizeable putting surface to avoid trouble.
This 417-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.
