Course Map
 
Red: Opto Pure
White: Flick a 3Bird
Silver: If I feel really good I will try flicking a Blizzard Boss. Most likely I will try to flick a Champ Boss around the dogleg
Gold: Probably throw a Star Tern RHBH to the dogleg and then turn the corner with a Volt or 3Bird
 
Hole 1
Red: Nova
White:Roc3
Silver: Thunderbird try to sneak around the corner clean up with nova
Gold: Destroyer to the corner slightly around hopefully clean up with Roc or nova depending on placement
 
Shorts - (RHFH) Zone or 11x Firebird depending on distance to pin
Longs - (RHFH) FR Rampage
 
Gold - rhfh sidewinder, if I get to/past the log pile rhbh dx stingray. If I get the corner short of the log pile rhfh sidewinder. If I don't get to the corner usually a rhfh predator to somewhere around the silver basket, wizard approach.

You think it's a big dog-leg, but if want to stay in the fairway don't fade hard.

Rest -- eh, only Jimi cares about the other layouts. :)
 
Red: 200 ft. Par 3 - - Stand and deliver FLX Buzzz if head wind, no wind Judge
White: 305 ft. Par 3 - - Nice and smooth Pearly pre Barry Beast
Silver: 485 ft. Par 3 - - Tresspass bombed around the dogleg
Gold: 605 ft. Par 4 - - Tresspass bombed around the dogleg

BTW, I'm LBH so my lines play a bit different than RBH. And having played this course a few thousand times, I play these shots in my sleep/dreams all the time
 
Roc short.

Leopard long and go from there.

Maybe a beat Wraith from the longest if I'm feeling froggy.
 
I throw a champ firebird thumber to the dogleg and then a dx roc down to the pin on the gold. it is tempting to try and get around the corner but every year i see lots of top players end up scrambling from short or long of the corner. Same plan for silver but a putter upshot.

from the short pad its an aviar to the silver and a fury turnover to the gold.
