This opening hole at The Bull gives you room to settle into your round with a generous fairway that's 52 yards wide at the 200-yard mark. Focus on finding the fairway rather than maximum distance - a smooth swing with a driver or 3-wood will set up an ideal approach angle.
Be aware that the fairway tightens significantly as you get closer to the green, narrowing from 52 yards at 200 yards to just 40 yards at 250 yards. Longer hitters should consider a controlled tee shot to avoid the squeeze.
Three bunkers guard the approach zone and green area at 271, 301, and 332 yards from the tee. The bunker at 271 yards is perfectly positioned to catch aggressive drives, while the greenside bunkers at 301 and 332 yards will penalize wayward approach shots.
At just 321 yards, this short par 4 offers birdie opportunities but demands precision on your approach. The large green measuring 7,418 square feet (52 yards by 27 yards) provides a generous target, so focus on finding the correct tier based on pin position.
The green's rectangular shape at 52 yards long by 27 yards wide means club selection is more critical than usual - there's significant depth but limited width. Pay attention to pin position and err toward the center of the green to avoid the surrounding bunkers.
This 321-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.
