Put some power in this one and you can make it to the pin on your drive. Just make sure to stay a bit to the right so you don't fade into the tree clump if you don't quite make it.

It actually helps to throw a bit higher than one normally would on a downhill hole, as long as you aim further right (RHBH) to make up for it. The reason is that if you keep your throw too low you may hit the ground when it levels out halfway down the fairway before the second drop.

Despite the generous par 5 on this 380ft hole, it's pretty easy to get points due to the 3 tree islands being designated OB. While it may be counter intuitive, the best throw to lay up on is the first. If you can blow right past the OB on your first drive, more power to you, but if you can't, it's best to get close and go for it on your second shot.

This is a simple hole but it requires that you stay on the fairway at all costs. The right side is OB, and the slope on the left side can send a disc skipping the wrong direction. Try to keep your shot as low as possible and you'll have an eagle op.

A high hyzer shot does wonders here (assuming RHBH). The branches above are not as in the way as they look, so get your disc up there on a hyzer and let it swoop the basket.

For RHBH, a nice swooping anyhyzer will set you up perfectly. I like to use a Valkyrie or similar, slightly understable disc to ensure the flight stays heading right without turning and burning. Too far to the right too soon and you'll hit the clump of trees and be OB.

Believe it or not, it's possible to undershoot this hole. The pin may be right there, but it's slightly uphill and the closeness may encourage too short a shot. Just use a little common sense and you'll have a nice little ace run.

Most RHBH or LHFH players find it easiest to toss an overstable disc over the rough to the right and have it fade to the basket. The rough may be a bit intimidating, but it's less than 200ft and it's easier to avoid the rough coming in from right to left.

Make sure to take note of where the hole is before throwing. This short, blind hole is designed to make you overshoot and have a long comeback putt, so make sure you're confident in the distance you need to go.

Tip #10
Tip by:jtreadwell Added on: Hole:#5
If you throw RHBH, use something you know you won't turn over to avoid the rough on the right. If you RHFH, shoot further to the left. Either way, avoid the rough on the right as it will eat your disc.
