Looks like its dead straight through a tight tunnel of trees

Id throw my core and pray I make it past the first trees

 

[billnchristy]

Home of Bikinijack!

His pic too.

This is a super fun course and often overlooked since it sits in the shadow of the Charlotte courses. It is literally right off the interstate, go play it!!!

Probably chuck a sinus or try to flex a drone s/l

 

[Apoth]

Definitely putter range. I'd use my ion up the gut with my fingers crossed.

 

[skamasterhenrik]

Cro, nice and easy, no run up....and bam! There's a tree (thats what actually happened) fun course though

 

[skippy0420]

I used a Roc and FAILED when I was there a few months back. :thmbup:

 

[Technohic]

Magic; either tee, at least the first time.

 

[Myers]

I would throw soft challenger from either tee.

 

[jtbingster]

Champ Aviar from both.

 

[TWO CROWS]

Prob my soft Ridge up the middle both tees.

 

[TxDiscGolfBoy]

SSS Wizard fo sho.

 

[JSurmann]

Warlock or wizard

 

[Smigles]

My understable putter, ergo my Pure.

On the longer maybe a comet, but probably also the pure.

 

[bikinjack]

The short tee is definitely a putter shot. It's tight, tight, tight. I throw a fairly beat in Wizard right down the gut. The long seems to always get me. I've hit those first two trees so many times, it ain't funny. Also, the long tee distance isn't right. It's longer than 210'. Someday, I'm gonna get around to re-measuring the back nine, as a few of the alternate tees/pin positions don't have the correct distances listed. The short tee distance is correct, or damn near. The long is probably more like 250'.

I've seen a few folks have a little success throwing OH shots from the short tee. There's a decent RH tommy line up high to the right. I'll stick with the putter though.

 

[DiscChucker]

Comet on both tees.

 

[Jaysus]

I love holes like that!

Roc down the middle from either tee (and then how ever many more wizard throws it takes me to get out of jail and to the basket )

 

[Mando]

Now that's a real golf hole. Redneck Machismo would love it.
I'd go with a backhand Ryno from the shorts, but not sure from the longs...maybe a BH stratus or sidewinder. Might even go forehand Flash depending on how the FH was working.

 

[bikinjack]

Rich, when you coming down to play it?

 

[dodgeball]

You know, I've never really played a very wooded course with holes like this one. I think I'd throw a roller with a mid, like a Buzzz, and see how far I could thread my way down. What would I have to lose??

 

[toothyfish]

Also, the long tee distance isn't right. It's longer than 210'. Someday, I'm gonna get around to re-measuring the back nine, as a few of the alternate tees/pin positions don't have the correct distances listed. The short tee distance is correct, or damn near. The long is probably more like 250'.

I thought that it looked like more than 24ft between the tees.

I'll go Voodoo from both, maybe a beat-in Buzzz from the long if I need to keep it lower.
