Hole Description.

Another medium length par 3 with tee shot placement being the key to playing this hole well. A plateau green must be hit to limit the damage here. Shots hit short will roll down the slope leaving a very difficult chip shot to an elevated green. Balls hit right will run straight into the lateral water hazard next to the OB wall. Balls hit left have to potential of finding the sand or running off down the slope away from the green. Balls hit long will either be lost in the thick bushes or trapped in the sand bunker below the level of the green. Due to the severe slope on the green from back to front, anything hit long will cause the next shot to run very quickly back towards the tee. The only place to be here is on the putting green and even that will not ensure a simple 2 putt par. The severity of the slope demands a putt to have the perfect line and pace, otherwise the ball will be rapidly gathered away from the hole by the slope. This green can make even the best putters look fooish!

The Only Way.

The hole plays 150 yards to the green center and it is essential to leave your ball below the hole. From the tee to the front edge of the green, the distance is 140 yards. If the flag is at the back of the green, hen your ideal yardage is 150 yards, if the flag is central then aim to fly the ball to the front portion of the green. If you are faced with a down hill putt take great caution as the speed down the slope is lightening fast!
