Strategic par 5 with water on the right side and out of bounds on the left. Long and well positioned drive is definitely an advantage here.
The golfer is faced with a decision - should I cut the dogleg over the forest or should I lay up and leave myself with a short wedge to the green?
Shorter players should play second shot along the forest and place themselves in a comfortable position on the fairway for approach.
For the long hitters local knowledge is at a premium, as if you choose to try and reach the green in two, you are faced with a long blind carry over a forest.
Long and narrow classic saddle shaped green requires the golfer to be accurate as the green is highly undulating and long puts can be a gamble at best.
Local rules
