Chances for a 2 are slim for me here, with the trees blocking the way. I'd say Amp, nice and easy, Ion for the approach, and drop in putt.

Unless I can rip the Amp low, and avoid that big tree guarding on the right...maybe enough for a 2.

I never call this tight, but the way the trees are positioned doesn't give a RHBH player the "room" most discs need to work if you plan to park one for a good look at a deuce.

I think I'll throw that Renegade discddwn sent me for X-mas in July :thmbup: at the furthest dead tree in the middle, see if it turns over around it. If it lands within about 75' of the pin ---> APX.
Otherwise, Challenger, APX.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I think a I hear a course calling my name...

RHBH, throwing the straightest driver I've got and trying to just get under that big guard tree on the right. Hard to judge, but it looks like if I get just passed the branches of the tree, I'll have a 30-40' run at birdie.

That night I lost myself to rolling green hills, shiny new baskets and firm concrete tees...Name was Russel.

Anyways, with the hill behind the basket, I'm throwing a low Mil LS right at it, under the trees.

 

[doctor professor]

Throw a rival low and hope for a nice skip.

Played 3 rounds out here in the beginning of June. Fun course! I believe I threw a JLS right up the gut and managed to avoid the trees for a birdie once. The basket was in the left position (shown by the white PVC pipe in the 2nd photo) in early June.

Amp ftw

Either tommie a firechicken or a stingray flipped thru the gap.

Beat DX Banshee - Tangent or VP - putt

 

[dandaman]

Nice straight fairway driver that hopefully misses the fir tree. Perhaps a star leopard. Putt to finish.

That pond is a disc eater, do not throw anything too flippy.

I might try a RHFH Tracker just the the left of the first tree and try to have it fade into the hill right under the basket.
