Definitely a roller shot.

Avenger SS.

It'd be nice if the locals chimed in on where the 405ft placement is in relation to the old one.

its further back and more to the right, the slope has a greater impact on missed putts now then in the old config, i do not remember anything different with any tree planting when i was there last in June of this year...

Yikes! Like this course but only played it once. Long low RHFH with an Orion for a birdie as I remember but sounds like that's no longer an option, at least for me. :-)

Ah, I didn't think they'd push it that close to 17's fairway. Last time I was there was in '08 or so. Those little trees in the middle of the fairway weren't there. It was a pretty straight forward Buzzz shot back then.

RHBH DX Leopard, try to hit the gap, maybe even see if it rolls.

I watched video of a tourney up there just the other night. Of the four pros, 3 went low and right (Including Nikko), and Wysoki was the only one to go with a forehand down the left. I may have changed some names to protect the pregnent, but you get the idea.

I would go low for the gap on the right with an Opto Saint to glide long and stable up at the end for a skip up as close as I could get.

I love parking this hole (when I can) with a nice left to right shot with beat in valk or avenger ss

Throw as far and straight as possible... Monarch. Then aviar for approach and putt.

I love this course!

I threw a star wraith and putter upshot - I play this one for a 3 all day. It plays longer than 405

Blizzard krait
Anode approach and to finish up.
Lovely hole looks like.
