For all tees and locations I am throwing a leopard straight up the fairway. That should get me about 260 or so. From there, for A I am throwing a Mako, for B I am throwing a Teebird to get the late fade, for C I am throwing the leopard again.

FD for all to start

In the photo from the white tee it sort of appears the fairway drops off the face of the earth... in effect it does. There is a deep valley. The C pin actually sits at roughly the same elevation as the tees while the A and B are both well below. Off to the right in the chasm is a bad place to be. Pins A and B are located in close proximity to one of the oldest/largest trees of its species in Virginia- I forget whether oak or poplar though. C pin is very seldom used at this point. (I assisted in design of this course.)

I haven't played the white tee in years but from the blue I am throwing my flippy F5 as straight as I can to the landing zone before the drop off. This generally results in winding up early left and throwing a bad forehand approach to the bottom of the valley on the right. A PITA climb down results in an easy upshot to either pin A or B for the bogey 4.

PD flicks off all tees to keep things moving left

One of the best holes on an awesome course. It's a shame the pin is so rarely in the C position, because it makes the hole that much more fantastic, capitalizing on the full elevation of that section of woods. A beat Thunderbird or Surge off the blue tee, regardless of pin position, and likely a Zone for a crafty upshot, dodging trees and crossing the wooded ravine along the way.

Fun course, and definitely one of the top holes. RHBH Leo3, then figure out the approach

Escape from either pad and go from there
