Chris,
The drive on 3 at woodlands is only blind once.
I don't see anything wrong with requiring such a short hole to require a perfectly shaped shot, and if you end up in the fairway in the ideal spot you will have a simple chip and run in between the two bunkers.
Thommo,
A 7 on a 279 metre hole, versus a 3 on a 457 metre hole? Tsk, tsk. Golf is played between the ears, not the legs.
