The exclamation point of sand just about says it all on this interesting dogleg left. Avoid the left but also beware of the slalom-like pines on the right. If you arrive unscathed after that first drive, it’s just a short iron onto the green. Aim carefully; the cluster of bunkers on the right can easily humble par-seekers.
Hit the tee shot 265-275 yards from Blue to center the widest mapped first-shot window—approximately 42 yards across, leaving roughly 113 yards to green center.
Recon cue
Favor center-right without entering the pines. Do not let the left sand dictate a right miss.
