HOD Thu, 3/29/12: Pier Park in Portland, OR

[Cygnus]

This hole is one of my faves at pier. With a gradual downslope and gradual dogleg right I usually throw my leopard. After those first trees it really opens up for your second shot.

 

[ian.]

RHBH Star Sidewinder.... maybe Pro-Line Leo if its looks tighter in person but should have no problem controling the SW through that gap

 

[GLong]

definitely a dog leg for the long pin, i'm going FH S-PD or maybe a wraith

 

[Fishy]

I'd probably do Comet to be safe, or FH a Trak, that way if it did hit a tree it would just crumple and fall.

 

[kingjames1014]

Avenger ss s-curve right under the basket.
Anode for the birdie.

 

[RUSSELL]

x xpress

 

[elevated plastic]

Buzzz or beat eagle depending on the downhill.

 

[Thomas437]

Backhand P-PD and hope for the birdie putt

[DiscNutt123]

Opto River or KC Pro Cheetah. Challenger/Magnet cleanup.

 

[birdman101]

Im thinking safe route is z comet, but i would be tempted to RHFH a banshee, or RHBH a river to try and get closer putting/ approaching with a wizard

 

[MikePinchico]

FH a teebird and finish wit a Banger GT Pro

 

[GripEnemy]

Yeah depending upon the other side of the hill, either an OLF or a Cobra, hopefully for deuce.

 

[orion487]

Unless its way down hill, playing for the 3 here. Teebird down the middle, Anode Anode to finish.

Pretty standard fairway for Pier Park in terms of trees - gotta shape those lines tight! Downhill slope isn't too bad, and there is quite a difference in the short vs/ long position (both are doglegs). As other people have mentioned, it opens up quite a bit as long as you don't end up short on the drive.
I usually forehand a stable Buzzz to get within ~30' of the pin for the short position. Backhand a roadrunner for the long.

 

[JoshEpoo]

Teebird; forehand for the short, backhand for the long.

 

[bee_ryce]

I played this hole once, awesome course! I think i overshot it with a pro Valk, but i dont carry that disc anymore so I'll throw my seasoned Orion LF at this one.

 

[notroman]

Power down a beat Z Predator on an anhyzer line. Maybe a Z Buzzz on an anhyzer. I'd have to see the basket before I decide. I've only played this course a few times back in 2007 so I don't remember what I threw on this hole - not that it matters, my game was completely different back then.

 

[JR Stengele]

CE valk w/ hyzer that flips over. Z buzzz on second shot. Drop in putt.

Amazing course btw. One of the very best in the NW!

 

[B3NDER]

Wraith sidearm for chains!

And the crowd goes wild!
