When I first played this hole I didn't think it was very difficult, but the more you play it, it just grows on you. It's a tougher hole than it looks at first.
From the Gold tee the ball is landing on an upslope, so even though it's a relatively short hole, it's going to play one or two clubs longer since you're not going to get much roll from your tee shot.
What I like to do here is turn the ball from left to right off the tee and let it work back down into the fairway. I aim my tee shot to the left edge of the green and let the ball feed it's way off the hill.
When you stand on the tee and look torwards the green the landing area doesn't look very wide. However, if you stand on the green and look back to the tee, you'll see that you have a lot more fairway than you think.
You don't want to fly it over this green because it's straight down hill behind the green, making it difficult to get the ball close to the hole on a pitch back to the green
A great pin placement here is the back-right corner. That's brutal!
