This par four gives the impression of a par five. The wide
open fairway has many hidden hazards! The fairway mound is a good distance, the trees on
the left are reachable and the bunkers on the right are also reachable.Your approach
shot to this large green should be approached from the left. There are two good reasons
for this
- there is a very deep bunker on the right front of the green and
- the natural slope of the fairway will bring your ball from left to right.
Don't be too left as there is a small but difficult gully running down the left of the
green. The back of the green, if you happen to get there is another bundle of fun ~ an
eight foot high dip awaits you here.
