The player must be mindful of the deep bunker on the left side of the fairway.If you have the power, fire away. Play your tee shot too far right and you risk running out of room rather quickly and playing your second from the trees. You must navigate a bunke2This is a slightly uphill par 3 that typically plays longer than its stated yardage.Beware of the back left pin where there is not much room and plenty of forced carry to get past the bunker fronting the left side of the green.
