Tip #1

RHBH be warned!! The wind will take your light/ understable plastic and toss if off the slope to the right. So make sure you throw something heavy and stable and try to find a gap in the 3 trees protecting the basket.

However I prefer to aim high and way left, and let the wind turn my driver to the basket taking the trees out of the picture.

For RHBH the hyzer gap is huge. A fairway driver works well here with a good skip at the end. When in doubt cheat a little long, and to the right, the bushes will catch the disc for a decent birdie look.

Don't go left, don't go long!! Although most advanced players can reach this hole with a midrange I prefer to go with a fairway driver on a high hyzer spike.

For RHBH. Throw something a little overstable so you can safely hit the right side of the gap and get a strong fade left at the end. Do not get greedy and try to cut the corner too close. If you end up in the woods by the trees it is a tough par save.

Tip #5

Tip by:DocHaole Added on:Aug 8, 2013 Updated on:Aug 8, 2013 Hole:#4

For the right 2 pin positions I recommend a strong hyzer line, relying on a skip at the end. There is usually a strong headwind here so I "club up" to a teebird, or a flash released on a strong hyzer line.

For the far left "tunnel" shot I also use a teebird, but release it flat, hoping for a solid skip up the slope, I aim for the closes 1/3 of the tunnel and hope the skip does the rest.

Tip #6

Tip by:DocHaole Added on:Aug 8, 2013 Hole:#3

For RHBH I recommend throwing something flippy with a lot of glide. I aim for the upper LEFT gap and throw my sidewinder with a good amount of snap on a hyzer angle. Hoping for a smooth right turn to the basket. you really want a soft landing here or you can roll down to the 4 tee pad.

Tip #7

When the basket is on the hill this can be a tricky shot. Most players will need a distance driver here which usually causes a roll away and a risky birdie look at best. There are some railroad ties just uphill of the basket that will catch the disc from rolling down. Land it uphill behind the ties for your safest birdie look.

Thumber!!!!

Especially now that the basket is elevated it is time to try out the thumber on this hole. It takes the wind out of the equation and gives me a birdie more often than not.

Tip #9

For advanced right hand players that throw primarily backhand, I would recommend a slightly understable fairway driver that will for sure turn to the right and come back to the left slightly. Like a leopard or cheetah type disc. You want to stay away from the left side of the fairway where there is an OB fence on the entire hole and all the way to the end of the park.

Tip #10

Tip by:lion Added on:Dec 3, 2012 Hole:#10

For advanced right hand players that throw primarily backhand, I would recommend a ghost or buzzz type disc for the straight position and a fairway driver like a rival or teebird type disc for the long left position. Rey to avoid over hyzering it to the road on the left.
