Hard to see from the photo, but there is no line to the basket coming in from the left. You want to stay to the right to have a chance running at the bucket or for your upshot.
Plays short. Rocky/slippery tee-pad. Bush infront of tee-pad is tall enough to interfere. There is an alternate tee-pad directly to the right of #8's standard tee-pad. Better to end straight to right, avoid going left.
