This picturesque par three is played with a mid to long iron, depending on hole location. Pay close attention to where the hole is cut — the ridge crossing this “reverse Redan” green will help hold shots near the front hole locations or feed balls to those cut near the rear of this deep green.
Start with the official 173-yard Blue number to green center, then adjust for the day's pin and wind.
Recon cue
Club to the correct section, not simply the center number. Let the ridge help when the pin allows it.
