Find a way to work your drive out to the end of the left fairway while being extra careful not to clip the tree in your way.  From here, you can shoot through the canyon walls into the green, just like this!  And, check out this incredible deflection hole-out — amazing!

If you get the front tee box, it appears as if you may be able to drive the green with a huge C3 shot and some lucky bounces.

Here’s a hole-out from the fairway.

This hole can be rarely be driven from the front box…you’re trying to catch a ramp by hitting a medium-teed driver with roll straight ahead, especially with an outwind.

Otherwise you’re trying to carry a drive up to the top of the fairway, as far left as you can, so that you can cut a wood for the approach around the trees into the green.  Some looks allow a shot through the trees as well.

Here’s a hole-out after a long drive.

With the introduction of high tees to classic courses and the shorter overall distance from the front tee box, you can rarely carry a high-teed driver into this green!

Two options here off the tee.  First, you can try to cut the tight corner to give yourself enough space for a shot into the green on your approach.  This can be tough, and you may still need a fair amount of curve on the next shot.

Or, you can do some math and punch a short shot straight ahead.  If you leave yourself a firm 5-wood shot, you can go right over the trees on your approach to the green!

This par 3 can be very challenging, especially from the front box if you are left in between clubs, which can happen quite a bit.  Here’s an excellent 9-iron ace.  Here’s another one with the A-wedge.

Here’s an ace from the middle box.

It’s also tough from the back box, but here’s a great ace.

The high-lofted woods can be a huge advantage on this finishing hole — here’s a nice ace with the 7-wood.  And here’s a well-played 5-wood.

A firmly-hit 2-iron can still carry the green as well!

Here’s a phenomenal 4-wood from the back box.

This green can sometimes be driven with a huge A1 and some great bounces — check out this amazing ace!  For a long time that shot was the longest hole-out ever posted to YouTube.  But then in 2016, we saw this 443-yard ace…perhaps the longest ever without using a high tee.  Incredible.

Here’s an example fairway hole-out.

Here’s a nice 9-wood ace.  This 2-hybrid was coming in hot!

If you’re patient enough you may see Nessie pop out of the water here as you are waiting to shoot into the green!

You can rocket a long drive here, potentially finding a ramp in the fairway for huge distance with your A1.  In extremely rare cases you might even catch the right angle to propel up onto the green!  However, you can also find trouble because of the slope in the fairway — it’s best to make sure you are either on the upper or lower tier, and not somewhere in between where the elevation could affect your approach.

Here’s an example hole-out.

This hole can be driven under optimal conditions!  Check out this crazy driver that just barely carried and then bounced up out of the bunker!  This one had no distance problems, coming in hot with the one-hopper!

Here’s an example hole-out.  Here’s a shorter one after a longer drive.

Here’s an example hole-out.  Also, you can pound your drive longer and straight ahead to give you a safer angle with less water on the approach — here’s a nice hole-out from there.

Here’s a nice 5-wood ace to this tough island green.  The wind can be brutal here, but this one was played perfectly!  And check out the angle on this one.  Here’s a wild one from the other side with the driver!

Here’s a fantastic hole-out around the lighthouse.
