Hey, this is the course where I do all my field work! Fun little 9 to play with a stack of mids, and you can make some excellent safari holes.

Hole plays ever so slightly uphill. There is a walking path about 20-25ft past the basket and bushes that drop off to a creek behind that.

Usually I just throw a Roc straight at it.

I also like to throw high flat stall shot over the small tree in the back of the right edge of the fairway, challenging the tall tree behind it, letting the disc crash at the basket. My only ace on this hole is throwing that route.
 
Oh the joys of a straight ahead open shot. It could be one of the following depending on my mood at the tee.

RGL Spike straight at it RHBH. OG Wizard on a little bit of hyzer at it RHBH. Z MRV or ESP Comet straight at it if I'm not throwing my putters well. If I'm feeling saucy, maybe an Opto Trident RHFH since I need practice at it. Or if I'm just trying to play for fun, thumber with an ESP Venom because that would most likely yield a birdie for me every time.

OG Wizard to putt regardless of disc thrown.
 
I played this course a few weeks ago and it was crazy windy on this hole.

I threw a Firebird out to the right and had it crash back left.

On a calm day id run it with a Buzz
