This area is perfect to approach the green, because the bunker protect it on the left side, the approach is quite open. The green is protected by a green on the left side, the back drop made by evergreen trees does not seem well integrated into the landscape, it is bold and it is unpleasant to the sight.
Hole 4, proposed enhancements
The tee shot now does not give many options to golfers, they try to hit in the middle of the fairway and let the ball roll on the right side of the hole. From there the bunker on the left of the fairway is almost out of play does not challenge golfers and it traps just errant shots. I would force the players to carry an hazard 230 yards from the tee on the left side of the hole, such as a bunker, and re-designing the green complex with the aim of rewarding the approach from the left side of the fairway and making it challenging for who plays on the centre right side. The green complex will be as in the drawing below, with a front-right bunker and another one on the right, those bunkers will intimidate who is playing from the right, making the approach to the green very difficult. To enhance the backdrop of the green I would suggest to cut some of the trees, leaving just 4-5 of them and therefore making the backdrop less bold as it is now, I would then integrate the trees and the green complex with some mounds.
