Official hole guide · Verbatim course-site wording · user-supplied
The longest par five on the course requires an accurate tee shot to avoid the lagoon on the right. Once in the fairway, lay-up shots should be played carefully up the left center to avoid the wood-planked fairway bunker and provide the best angle of approach. Left and back, right hole locations on this green are dangerous as water is nearby.
Hit the tee shot 210-220 yards from Blue to center the widest mapped first-shot window—approximately 42 yards across, leaving roughly 329 yards to green center.
Recon cue
Treat it as three shots. Tee ball in play, lay up left-center, then respect water near left and back-right pins.
