One of the most difficult drives on the course with a barely discernible fairway that banks to the right. Players will have to throw through an opening of three feet that is about forty feet from the tee that will be the difference between a par and a double bogey. LBHT will have an easier time. Right handed players should flick this shot because trying to turnover the disc will be difficult because of the thin fairway. Once past the trees and turn, it is a matter of luck how far the disc flies. Scattered trees clog any path to the basket. Those attempting an approach shot should walk all the way to the basket to look for trees that are obscured by other trees. A par is to be congratulated by all in the group. Bogies, vulgarities and despair are the standard for this basket.

A narrow fairway with an early turn causes some trouble. An approach or midrange disc with a long glide and gentle hyzer will make a birdie possible. This drive might be the best chance for an ace. A left channel is now open so "there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run, there's still time to change the road you're on"

Roughly three hundred feet down is the eight foot opening to where the basket is. A drive slightly to the right gives the player a greater chance to throw in an approach shot making an eagle the norm. A shot played to close to the forest will need a spike hyzer and a prayer. One or two unseen trees block the middle of the fairway after the turn. New players to the course should walk down to the opening because no signage exists to point to the basket.

This drive seems longer than what is posted on the sign because players must throw around a thicket. Choose a driver with lots a fade to hook around the dense brush. Many players throw high for a more direct shot. This risky maneuver can cause a disc to hyzer into a dense forest thus costing another stroke. Birdies were the norm prior to the tree obstacle but a strong throw makes a two within reach.

Three rows of trees create havoc and bring out obscenities. After clearing the first set of trees the disc has to fly to the far right or far left side. The left seems more open but the approach shot is jeopardized by the last row of trees. Recent tree removal has made a shot possible with a flick/spike hyzer on this side. A throw down the right side is a bit risky because the second row of trees choke off the open lane. However, if the disc does drop in near the second row of trees on the right side, an easier approach shot with a touch of hyzer is possible. Birdies are sublime and a par is satisfactory.

Tip #6

A drive flanked on the left with a dense forest but an open field to the right. Throw at the white sign down the field that points to where the basket is as the fairway leaves the field and returns to a narrowing wedge cut into the forest. A well thrown Cyclone, Atlas or Volt should hyzer slightly as it continues to glide into the wedge. An eagle is possible and birdies are the norm for experienced players. New players should concentrate on keeping the disc to the right.

Another one of Summit's "you have got to be kidding me" drives. Trees thirty feet down guard a wide open fairway that arcs to the left. A slight opening is to be found on the right. A hyzer flip is tempting but dense forest is awaiting immediately behind the opening if the disc continues to fly straight. Practice this hole with midranges and eventually this disc will go through. A tomahawk that can be thrown straight and then hyzer is possible. The high grasses and shrubs make rolling a high risk. A two should evoke a feeling of superiority while a par is delightful.

An arcing fairway perfect for RHBH players. Approach or slow fairway drivers with a definitive hyzer are perfect for this drive. Birdies are possible. An ace is not out of the question.

Flick or backhand a long turnover shot. Best bet might be a Buzz. Those attempting a "go for it shot" must get the disc to turn 150 feet down the fairway and hope for luck to avoid the trees on the right that guard the basket. I have seen this accomplished with a Valkarie or a beat up Viking.

Tip #10
Tip by:Front Row Added on: Updated on: Hole:#9
Recent landscaping has made this drive doable again. This twisting and tight fairway requires a high degree of skill for a birdie. A Shark, Roc, Vector or Trident can be used backhanded or flicked depending on what tiny window you try to throw through. This is arguably the hardest drive on the course. I usually flick the first shot and use an approach disc with a lot of hyzer for the second shot. A birdie is to be celebrated and a par should evoke a feeling of calm. Bogies are the norm.
