Over the hill and from the map it looks pretty straight.......

RHBH Avenger SS or River. Depending on wind.
 
I played this course once, and I can remember most of the other holes, but for the life of me I can barely recall this one. The only thing I can truly remember was putting in at least one throw better than everyone else on my card.

Ion from the shortest, otherwise most likely either a Leopard or TeeBird to drive. From there it would be Ion or Tangent to mop up.

I have played this one multiple times and I had trouble remembering it from the pictures, too. If you turn to the right from the fairway picture there will be a little grove of trees and the basket is sometimes over there making it a long right-curve hole rather than a straight one. If we're being honest, here's what happens when I play it no matter which position the basket is in:

First shot: doesn't matter.
Second-4th or 5th shots: Forehand Spirit or backhand Wizard until I get it in.

I clearly play from the wrong tee for my skill level.
 
A and B from white or red: RHFH Star Wraith
C from white: RHBH turnover E* Roadrunner
C from red: RHBH turnover beat DX Shark 180g
 
Anything over 400' I'm going to throw the Avenger SS and then approach with the Zone. Finish it off with the Judge. Everything else is either a KC Pro roc or Ion.
 
I played here 4.5 years ago. I probably threw something high speed then buzzzed then aviar. I don't remember the first half of the course all that well but I do remember enjoying the second half with its elevation.
 
White A, Red A, White B: Champ Destroyer
Red B, White C: Star Teebird
Red C: Star Aviar Driver

Hahaha, I was thinking the exact same thing as I looked at the pic: "what hole is that?" even though I've played at least 15 rounds there. I usually take at least a 4 too if I'm playing the longs.
