Rol6566's tip for this hole:
Pretty straight forward shot. Basket is on top of the steep hill. Running the basket from the tee will leave a long and usually uphill approach with the hill on the other side.

My tip: make it over the gulley and you're in good shape - if you don't go too long.
Thanks Tistoude for guiding me on this gem! :hfive:

Don't recall exactly how I played this hole or which tee I threw from. but as the tip says, it's fairly straight forward.
Red: Challenger
White: Ibex
Blue: Bolt
 
Last time I was out here I floated a Buzzz just over the basket from the whites. Like the tip says... it left a longer than planned putt and I took a par.

Red: Anode
White/Blue: Tangent (or Buzzz if it's in the bag.)
 
Red: Pure
White: Pure
Blue: Diamond

All played a little short to slide up to the pin.
 
I throw a summit from the reds and whites and a fuse from the blues. Definitely a must deuce hole. From the whites I average a 2.6 through 25 rounds and from the blues a 2.73 through 15 rounds.
 
I'll take this as a little warm-up work; I'm planning to play this course for the first time on Wednesday! Can't wait.

I'd say a Tangent from the red or white, and an Underworld or Tangent from the blue, depending on how it looked.
