Only 312 yards from the white tees. Short enough to tempt driver at the green, and guarded enough to make you pay for it.
Reaching for driver because the card says 312, then missing the small green and leaving a short-sided pitch out of the sand.
Driving it close only helps if the miss stays playable. Into a well-bunkered green this size, laying back to a full, comfortable wedge scores lower for most golfers than a half-pitch from trouble.
Hit the club that leaves your favorite wedge number from the fairway, often a hybrid or long iron. Take on the green only if you drive it well and the pin sits in the open.
≈ 0.3-0.5 strokes on a hole this size, by trading one hero swing for a wedge you own.
Yardages are from the white tees on the official Monmouth County Parks scorecard; par and stroke index are course-wide. Strokes-saved figures are approximate expected-value ranges for a mid-handicap golfer (roughly 8-18), not guarantees. Aim guidance is general course management. For a hole's exact bunker and green detail, walk it with the yardage book.
