Here’s an example hole-out.

It takes a big drive to have a straight-in approach.

Here’s a great approach shot curved around the trees into the cup.  This one is also fantastic.

Here’s a solid ace with the 9-iron, followed by a nice 3-wood ace to a front pin.

Most players have the best success driving this green by hitting a smooth driver straight through the gap in the trees at the green, where it should bounce up and settle.

I have also had a lot of success lining up with the center of the green, using my 3W, pulling back slightly left, and ramming it out left just around the leftmost tree. This takes the gap out of play.  With backspin on the Streaks, it hits the front of the hill and hops up on the green for the DE putt. The only time I struggle is when it’s 300 yards into the wind…then sometimes I can’t get that shot to hop all the way up. So here is when you’d default back to the driver shot.

Here’s a super albatross ace through the trees!

Straight through is certainly the traditional route at this green, but check out the curve on this 4-wood — amazing!  A shorter cut shot around the trees is more traditional, such as this great 3-wood.

This 3-wood somehow stayed under the trees and carried the green, trickling back and in!

Here’s a perfect driver to a back pin.  This one didn’t need to bounce at all.

This guy was struggling but got some help here!

There’s a lay-up spot towards the green on the right side of the hill, but it’s tough to stick, and usually not worth it!  Be careful of the wood too, which can deflect your ball too much.

It’s almost always a better option to blast far out in the main fairway.  Here’s a great hole-out from the fairway after going the long way around.

Here’s sweet 5-wood dunk.  This one looks way long but was actually perfect — check it out!
