Strategy Tips

tee shot

Club selection is critical on this short par 3 - with only 168 yards to the pin, focus on accuracy over distance. A smooth 7 or 8-iron will typically suffice, allowing for better control and spin.

green

Target the center of this generous green measuring 22 yards wide by 34 yards deep (4,580 sq ft total). The large putting surface gives you room for error, so avoid getting aggressive with pin hunting.

hazard warning

Beware of bunkers positioned at 110 yards from the tee - while short of the green, these hazards can catch mishit shots or create challenging recovery situations.

approach

With no fairway available (0 yards wide at standard distances), this is a direct tee-to-green shot. Plan your trajectory carefully to clear any intervening hazards and land softly on the putting surface.

tee shot

Position yourself properly on the tee box since there's no landing zone for a layup shot. Commit fully to reaching the green in one, as any shot falling short will likely find trouble.
