Strategy Tips

hazard warning

This hole presents an extreme challenge with no traditional fairway landing area - the fairway width measures 0 yards at both the 200 and 250-yard marks, indicating you must carry a significant hazard from tee to green.

approach

Plan for a precise carry shot over the deep ravine to reach the elevated green that measures 33 yards wide by 40 yards deep - accuracy is more critical than distance on this Pete Dye signature hole.

tee shot

With no landing zone available at 0 yards from the tee, you must commit to carrying your tee shot all the way to the green complex or a safe area beyond the ravine - there's no bail-out option short.

green

Target the center of the 7,032 square foot green to avoid the bunkers positioned at 406 and 403 yards - the generous green size provides some margin for error if you can clear the ravine.

approach

Be aware of greenside bunkers located at 403 and 406 yards from the tee - these Pete Dye hazards guard the plateau green and punish shots that carry the ravine but lack precision.
