Your own Golden Tee club set — what would you choose?

By • Updated: Jan 4th, 2015 • Category: Features, Golden Tee golf clubs

**Edited since there is no longer a 220 yard 7-wood as was offered in the Flare set previously. Imagine if you could take clubs from any of the 20 different bags that Golden Tee has assembled over the LIVE era, compiling your own personal set.  What would you choose? First, let’s list off some of […]

Golden Tee provides 45 different (based on loft and distance) woods, irons, and hybrids for you to play with (in addition to a variety of putters). Of course, you only get to put 13 of these in your bag along with your putter, so the clubs you use are determined by the club set you […]

Sparkling Waters — Hole #15: Par 5

By • Updated: Jan 1st, 2015 • Category: Sparkling Waters

  Some setups allow you to play something like a high-teed 3-wood to curve around to the upper fairway, giving yourself a short approach shot for eagle.  Here’s a holeout from there.  A high-teed driver has enough loft to get over the corner as well. Especially with a wind blowing away from the green, you […]



Rocky Hollow — Hole #12: Par 3

By • Updated: Jan 1st, 2015 • Category: Rocky Hollow

Here’s a nice 3-wood dunk from the back-left box. From the middle-right box, this one hopped into a back pin. And from the front-right box, this 6-iron finds the hole. VIDEO DEMO



Celtic Shores — Hole #14: Par 3

By • Updated: Jan 1st, 2015 • Category: Celtic Shores

You will be shooting at any of three different greens off the tee here! To the farther back-left green, here’s a 3-wood ace. To the middle rounder green, here’s a 5-wood ace. You may also shoot to a closer front-right green. VIDEO DEMO



Desert Valley — Hole #18: Par 3

By • Updated: Jan 1st, 2015 • Category: Desert Valley

If the pin is in the middle/back, it’s often a soft 9-iron with no spin — here’s an example ace.  With a strong head wind, this 9-iron played it perfectly to a right pin.  So did this 9-iron to a front pin. Especially if the wind is in your face with a back-center pin placement, […]



Rocky Hollow — Hole #15: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 1st, 2015 • Category: Rocky Hollow

  This long par 4 forces you to choose a path up the fairway while trying to avoid the rocky barriers.  You’ll then have to carry and stick the slightly-elevated green on your approach. Here’s a hole-out from the center fairway.  And here’s a runner from the right fairway that finds the cup. VIDEO DEMO



Rocky Hollow — Hole #17: Par 3

By • Updated: Jan 1st, 2015 • Category: Rocky Hollow

  This par 3 forces you to carry, stick and hold the severely down-sloped green to avoid dropping off the cliff.  There’s a back box set and a front box set with significant distance in between to make it challenging.  From the back left box, here’s a nice 5-wood with bite to a back pin. From […]



Celtic Shores — Hole #11: Par 3

By • Updated: Jan 1st, 2015 • Category: Celtic Shores

We will see some interesting pin placements on the unique shape of this par 3 green, requiring you to work the ball into the wind and slope in some situations. Here’s a nice ace from the longer right box.  From the middle box, here’s a great cut into a right pin.  And here’s an ace […]



Rocky Hollow — Hole #9: Par 3

By • Updated: Dec 22nd, 2014 • Category: Rocky Hollow

A short par 3 with different tee boxes to offer some variety when closing out the front 9.  From the right box, here’s a 9-iron ace to a right pin. From the left box, this 9-iron found a back pin. There’s also a look from the other side where you shoot over the hill first […]



Celtic Shores — Hole #12: Par 4

By • Updated: Dec 22nd, 2014 • Category: Celtic Shores

  This par 4 is always drivable but requires you to shoot over a hill guarding the green.  If you trickle down short, there’s sand…that’s okay, because being long is wet.  You can either take a 3-wood (high-teed can be good) over the top, or a driver around the left side to get there. This driver […]



Rocky Hollow — Hole #16: Par 5

By • Updated: Dec 22nd, 2014 • Category: Rocky Hollow

Many options off the tee here, so your lay up spot will likely depend on the wind and tee box given. One good option is to play level with the sand jutting out to the right, to the far right edge of the fairway.  This can give you from a 3-wood to a 6-wood over […]



Celtic Shores — Hole #4: Par 3

By • Updated: Dec 21st, 2014 • Category: Celtic Shores

Three different tee boxes here offer multiple looks. Here’s a 4-wood ace from the back center box.  And here’s a 5-wood ace from the right box. VIDEO DEMO



Rocky Hollow — Hole #7: Par 5

By • Updated: Dec 21st, 2014 • Category: Rocky Hollow

  A good option here is to lay up just over to the right, and the ideal spot is to land the flat fairway just over the rocks…check out this ideal setup for a 3-wood hole-out.  Often, you will trickle down a ways into the fairway off the tee, and that’s fine too — you […]



Celtic Shores — Hole #8: Par 5

By • Updated: Dec 21st, 2014 • Category: Celtic Shores

Laying up anywhere towards the very end of the fairway should give you a 3-wood approach to the green.  Here’s a hole-out from the right side to a right pin.  With this location, you may have to bounce your 3-wood off the top of the front-guarding hill.  Here’s another 3-wood from the same area to […]



Sparkling Waters — Hole #11: Par 4

By • Updated: Dec 21st, 2014 • Category: Sparkling Waters

Nothing special here; from either tee box location, just put it in the fairway for an open shot at the green.  Here’s an example hole-out. VIDEO DEMO



Sparkling Waters — Hole #5: Par 4

By • Updated: Dec 21st, 2014 • Category: Sparkling Waters

From the back tee, here’s a driver with backspin around the right side.  Here’s another incredible driver ace from that box.  And this high-teed driver went around the left side to a left pin.  So did this one, barely missing danger! From the middle tee, you can go around either side depending on the pin […]



Desert Valley — Hole #10: Par 5

By • Updated: Dec 21st, 2014 • Category: Desert Valley

  Interesting setup where you’ll have to stick one of the three landing pods to give you a shot at the green in 2.  The farthest back pod gives you the best approach shot, where you can play a small curve around the hill for your approach — here’s a nice driver hole-out.    With […]



Desert Valley — Hole #5: Par 4

By • Updated: Dec 20th, 2014 • Category: Desert Valley

A drivable par 4 whose complexity depends on the tee box — you’ll either get to hit over the trees or have to curve slightly around them to the green. From the left box with a left pin, this 5-wood took straight aim and got a nice little kick off the sand hill into the […]



Pearl Lagoon — Hole #12: Par 3

By • Updated: Dec 10th, 2014 • Category: Pearl Lagoon

  There’s only trouble on this one if you’re WAY off.  Here’s an ace from the back box. And here’s a dunk to a right pin from the front box. VIDEO DEMO



Desert Valley — Hole #16: Par 5

By • Updated: Dec 10th, 2014 • Category: Desert Valley

Using a high tee if needed, get your drive to the part of the fairway that juts out right.  This creates an angle to have a straight shot into the green.  If you come up short and left, you’ll have a difficult curved driver shot around the hill, so long and right off the tee […]



Pearl Lagoon — Hole #17: Par 5

By • Updated: Dec 8th, 2014 • Category: Pearl Lagoon

  One play on this long par 5 is to blast a drive as far off the tee as you can to the lower fairway in order to minimize the cut required on your approach down into the green.  It’s often a big C3 drive to carry down into the second fairway.  Here’s a driver […]



Desert Valley — Hole #15: Par 3

By • Updated: Dec 8th, 2014 • Category: Desert Valley

From the front box, here’s a 6-wood dunk to a right pin! VIDEO DEMO



Celtic Shores — Hole #15: Par 4

By • Updated: Dec 8th, 2014 • Category: Celtic Shores

This drivable par 4 should have you thinking right-center of the green to avoid all the danger elsewhere.  It’s usually a 3-wood, sometimes high-teed with a headwind — here’s an example ace.  Here’s a high-teed 5-wood that also finds the hole. VIDEO DEMO  



Desert Valley — Hole #2: Par 4

By • Updated: Dec 8th, 2014 • Category: Desert Valley

A drivable par 4 where you just need the right touch to stick the elevated green…but don’t miss!  The offset will challenge your accuracy off the tee.  Here’s a nice 3-wood ace.  And from the back-left of the box, here’s a driver ace. VIDEO DEMO



Sparkling Waters — Hole #16: Par 3

By • Updated: Dec 8th, 2014 • Category: Sparkling Waters

From the center box, here’s a nice 5-wood ace. From the right box, here’s a 4-wood ace to a back-right pin. VIDEO DEMO
