[fritothedog]

Teebird to get up the fairway and out left, RHFH Teebird or G*Leo from there to get the rest of the way, Pure for par

 

[DoWork]

I can't see anything so I'm just going to mash a D3 up and out.

 

[tbird888]

PD flick to start

 

[jdm0514]

Big z Crank on a rhbh. I'm guessing the hole finishes to the left. Then a zone or Sol upshot then a focus to finish.

 

[Pymm]

Saint to start, upshot looks uphill so Buzzz SS, then a makeable putt hopefully.

looks a good deal left... rhbh hyzer rival

 

[BogeyNoMore]

A Buzzz, because I just want to go easy, play connect the dots and keep it in the fairway... and mostly cuz I has plenty of backups in case I loses it.


*cue soft focus for memory sequence*

One hot, humid July day four years ago, Goliath ate me alive and spit me out like undigestible refuse. Didn't lose any discs, but damned if I didn't try. Felt like I found every bit of rough that course had.

*sequence shows disc buried in seemingly impenetrable rough, with a puzzled Bogey scratching his head wondering, "How the hell did it end up this deep?" :confused*


Normally, I can still enjoy courses that are above my skill level. Maybe I was just hot, sticky, tired, and as a result, particularly inaccurate ...but Goliath is one of the few courses I specifically didn't find very enjoyable because I simply don't have the game for it.

Don't get me wrong - it's a helluva course, but unforgiving of worn out noodle-arms that struggle to past the trouble out to where the fairway opens up a bit.

i dont even know what im looking at

rhbh fizz volt to keep it in where ever the fairway is

 

[armiller]

Z Undertaker RHBH hyzer cuz I'm guessing left is good

 

[BuzzzChief]

Everyone's saying left, but the course map is showing a big right dogleg to this hole. Based on the course map I am going Stalker RHBH off the tee to keep it in the fairway, then probably a Caiman or Firebird RHFH approach.

Looks too tight to try and bomb something out there, without getting into trouble.

 

[Reniger]

Oh god. Goliath. Aptly named course. This place is a BEAST! I made the mistake of playing Goliath right after playing Flip City (only about 20 minutes apart) I cannot caution enough not to play both in the same day. You'll regret life.

I just go went a mid here to keep it centered. It ends quite a bit to the right if I remember correctly and is way uphill.
