802 ft.

"The first hole exemplifies what Goat Hill is all about: You are greeted to an 802 foot par 4 playing into a straight headwind. Obviously, you'll want to crush your drive as far as possible to allow yourself the easiest approach to the pin. You'll also want to get your drive turned over to avoid fading out, but if you get it turned over too much (which is easy to do, thanks to the headwind), you'll likely cut roll into the valley and find yourself looking at a bogey. Even with an excellent drive, you're still looking at a 300+ foot approach into a precarious green with the basket situated on a slope just beyond the golf green."

Plasma Orbital until I get there.
 
My more overstable Wraith or Guld to lead off, depending on the strength of the headwind.
 
Hatchet roller off the tee if I have room to throw the shot. (Hard to tell from the pictures if there's a low ceiling from the tee).

From there I'll have to just wing it depending where the tee shot went.
