The picturesque par five requires a tee shot placed on the left side fairway bunker. From this angle, players can choose the optimum layup distance or go for the peninsula green. This green has more contours than is evident, and approaches to rear or right side hole locations should be played with caution as water is nearby.
Hit the tee shot 215-225 yards from Blue to center the widest mapped first-shot window—approximately 38 yards across, leaving roughly 290 yards to green center.
Recon cue
Get left from the tee, then choose a precise lay-up number unless the peninsula target is genuinely available.
