:hfive:
 
Think I threw a Wraith when there.
 
Longest hole on the course, huh?
R-Pro Boss.
Repeat if necessary (and it will be...) until Buzzz/Comet/Challenger seems feasible.
 
Like all the rest of the holes on this course, #5 plays about 10% longer than the tee sign says. (rumors are that the laser sighter was set on meters, rather than feet).

So, 781 + 80ish = 860ish. For most mortals the best strategy on this hole is to play it like a short par 5. Soooo, I often play XL, XL, comet, putt.
 
^this

all the holes are just a wee bit longer than the sign.

i usually throw beat pd / beat pd / buzzz or putter / putt

depending how good my first two shots are :)
 
Toss the teebird down the middle, then putter for the 2.
 
nice hole...
start with a S-TD for attempting to finish straight and in the middle.
Followup with proably a FD, then finish with pure...proably x2

Thanks but this bit of insider info isn't changing my first 3 shots... I just wanna get as far down as I can while staying on the fairways = R-Pro Boss x3'ish.
 
I'm going Lace off the tee, and depending on the lie, probably another Lace or pro destroyer, then hopefully only a putter to the green but probably a comet or buzzz. Challenger for hopefully a 4.

What a beautiful looking course.
