This hole takes no prisoners if you are not straight off the tee. It is long and against the prevailing wind, so if you play it on a day when the wind is not against you, be happy! It is not S.I.1 for nothing.
Your second (if you have driven down the fairway), will be anything from a wood to a mid iron depending on your skill - and your skill will be tested again with this shot. With a depression short left of the green making the green elevated on the left, you have to hit the green or get a very lucky bounce on the narrow approach into this green to make it on with your second.
The green slopes slightly from front to back and has a steep bank on the left which gathers many balls that have been hit to avoid the bunkering on the right.
