The fairway completely disappears at the 200-yard mark, creating a strategic bottleneck that demands precise club selection and accuracy off the tee.
Aim to carry your drive at least 250 yards to reach the 36-yard wide landing area, but be aware this leaves a challenging approach with bunkers at 431 and 417 yards protecting the green.
The elevated green favors a high approach shot to a compact 4,350 square foot target that measures just 25x28 yards - precision trumps distance on this demanding par 4.
With bunkers positioned at 417 and 431 yards, your approach shot from the 250-yard landing zone will play approximately 150-155 yards to an elevated green that slopes against the hole's right-to-left bend.
Consider laying up short of the 200-yard chokepoint with a controlled iron shot, accepting a longer approach rather than risking the narrow 36-yard corridor at 250 yards on this 403-yard hole.
This 403-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.
