Hit a low checking wedge before a downslope
Look at the slopes beyond the pin: a big downslope after it means a shot hit three or four feet past the pin can go way past. Use a 56 low checking shot, with the ball back a little on the downslope, a bit of hinge, and a low flight. Try to land it just on with control as it runs out, aiming to keep it six to eight feet short of the hole.
