HOD 1/29/2023: Shawshank Hole #6 Huntsville, TX

[Bardu]

Shawshank in Huntsville, TX

301 ft.

"I tried the "safe" play on Hole 6 by throwing a anny off to the right, only to hit a tree that kicked it directly into the pond. But I threw in from the drop-zone on the dock for a circle three! Small victories..."

"I knew I wasn't sure to clear the far edge at about 290' from the tee, so turned one over to the right...it still clipped a tree & rolled in...fished it out quickly and shot from the drop zone pier for my circle four"

Oh man, I would love to play Shawshank.

Probably putter - putter, playing for par.

 

[GripEnemy]

Beat K3 Berg RHBH, then any disc over the water depending how my drive ended up. If it's more open from the pad than I can tell from these images I'm going Drone slight flex shot probably?

Having never played it, and without an above-view shot or graphic layout of how that water plays against the fairway, my first gut reaction is that distance is well within my control range. I would probably throw a Halo Leopard3 or Neo Instinct - both have enough turn when torqued where they can still be thrown flat, low, and have enough to make that distance with a little to spare.

If I'm feeling spicy might try a burner Comet at it

Otherwise putter layup
