“A risk reward hole. Longer hitters may decide to take on the green. Alternatively, an accurate tee shot to the right of the fairway bunker will leave a pitch or chip to a small two-tier green, sitting close to the boundary fence”.
The green is drivable for some but requires a draw and with out of bounds down the left and a small well protected green it is a risky shot. The prudent option is to lay up short of the fairway bunker to leave a short iron in. Try to keep your tee shot up the left-hand side to give a better angle for the second shot.
