Strategy Tips

tee shot

Target the widest part of the fairway at 250 yards where it opens to 63 yards wide, giving you maximum room for error and the best angle for your second shot on this lengthy 613-yard par 5.

hazard warning

Beware of the bunker cluster positioned at 207-213 yards from the tee - these hazards guard the narrower 33-yard section of fairway at 200 yards, making accuracy crucial off the tee.

approach

With the green measuring 28 by 33 yards (5,513 square feet), you have a generous target for your approach shot, but the substantial length of 613 yards means most players will need three well-executed shots to reach in regulation.

tee shot

Avoid the temptation to overpower your drive - the fairway constricts to just 33 yards at the 200-yard mark, so controlled accuracy is more valuable than maximum distance on this hole.
