This
is the shortest par 5 on the golf course. It is definitely a two-shot hole and
has no fairway bunkers. The only question is what to hit off the tee. There are
two sets of tees on this hole; the original tee is along the water, playing 505
yards, slightly down hill and right to left. The new tee is fifty yards up the
hill to the right, it plays 525 yards and plays straight down the hill. The
fairway narrows in the landing area at 265 yards from the left tee and 285
yards from the right tee. Just past that point, the fairway is only 20 yards
wide and elevated above water on both sides. If a player hits a tee shot 250
yards from the left tee (270 yards from the right tee), the fairway is 40 yards
wide and only leaves the player a 230-yard approach shot to the front of this
elevated green. The back half of the putting green runs away from you more
severely than it looks.
