Sully, I find the whole to hole to be challenging. Meaning the margins for error get smaller and smaller as one approaches the green. Sure you could lay up with shorter clubs, leaving longer ones in, but, what hole is immune to your point? More than likely, if you are playing there, it's either a competition or on a corporate outing. Either way, you might need to try to make a three. Could you? Sure, with two fine shots and a putt. You might need a birdie to win, do you try to get on in two and two putt, or, play safe to the 100 yard mark? I can tell you finding the 100 yard mark is no small feat since the cant of the fairway towards the bunker to the left is significant. A ball hit center has a good chance to roll all the way over to that bunker. Firmness depending, of course.
