Here’s what the players are saying early on about Golden Tee’s new 2009 course Bonnie Moor! AMJ — GT Par is -30. Jeff S — Front has a lot of scoring opportunities. A lot of eagle opportunities on the front, watch out for the tall grass!!! Placement with a 3W or 4W is key sometimes […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #1: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 12th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

We open up with a long par 4, but it’s straight and flat with a huge green — you should have no problem putting your approach shot close for birdie. EXAMPLE HOLE-OUT



Bonnie Moor — Hole #2: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 12th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This par 4 is drivable more times than not, but you can also be pinned up against the wall on the right, or you can be on the far back left of the tee box.  If you’re in one of these spots, you most likely cannot drive the green, so leave yourself a nice approach […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #3: Par 3

By • Updated: Sep 24th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This par 3 is a bit tricky because it’s a long way downhill!  And you know by now that the wind is going to affect your shot at least twice as much on the way down.  You almost certainly do not want backspin here unless it’s a front pin with wind at your back, because […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #4: Par 5

By • Updated: Feb 12th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

The tee shot here is all about distance control, and you’ll almost always be using a 3-wood.  Aim for the little gap between the right-most bunkers — you’ll want to stick your tee shot just over the tall grass and just short of the bunker.  The key is to carry the tall grass but use […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #5: Par 5

By • Updated: Feb 12th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

Depending on the wind and tee box, you’ll be doing one of three things off the tee.  Most often, I like to rotate to the right 2 or 3 times and play a big C3 with roll out to the second fairway.  This way, you’re taking advantage of the slope and direction of the fairway.  […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #6: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 12th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This par 4 is not tough to drive the green if you get the distance right.  You’ll have an offset look at the green, and it’s a long way downhill again, so you’ll have to pull back at the correct angle (if necessary to pull back) to put you on the green close to the […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #7: Par 3

By • Updated: Feb 12th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This par 3 can sometimes set up really tough if the pin is in the front.  Why?  Because both tall grass and bunkers guard the front of the green, so it’ll be really difficult to get the ball close to the front of the green!  Use as much loft as you can here, and err […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #8: Par 5

By • Updated: Feb 12th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

Here’s another hole where the tee shot is crucial, and it can be really easy to really tough depending on your tee box placement.  You have to get the ball at least to the middle of the neck of the fairway to have a shot at the green in two, and being in the fairway […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #9: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 12th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This par 4 is usually really tough to eagle.  If you’re tucked off to the right and close to the hill, don’t worry about trying to drive the green — you’ll just end up in the water.  Lay out in the fairway and take your shot at eagle. From anywhere else, you’ll have somewhere from […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #10: Par 4

By • Updated: Apr 26th, 2014 • Category: Bonnie Moor

In rare cases, this green can be driven with a huge C3 drive from the front-right of the box…check out this incredible ace! Otherwise, just pick a fat part in the fairway and tee off with backspin to hold this spot.  Don’t go too far or the tall grass will inhibit your approach.  The key […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #11: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 12th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This par 4 will set you up anywhere along a very wide tee box and have you shoot into 1 of 2 different greens.  The difficulty depends on how much you have to hook around the hill on the way to the green.  If you’re in the middle of the tee box, you’ll have to […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #12: Par 5

By • Updated: Sep 24th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This hole has a big-time shortcut you should be using every time.  Rotate left of the green and aim directly at the big hill on the left — you’re going to want to put your drive at the top of this hill either with a 3-wood or driver with roll.  Approaching the green from here […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #13: Par 3

By • Updated: Feb 12th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

The green on this par 3 has the most severe slope ever seen in Golden Tee — usually 12 degrees and sometimes even 13!  Tee boxes are spread all around this green, so you’ll see lots of looks into this crazy hard green.  My advice is to let the slope do the work for you […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #14: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 12th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

Multiple tee boxes give you many different looks, but they’ll all be from a similar distance — anywhere from a driver to a 5-wood.  If you can avoid using a driver, you’ll want the extra loft here, since you have to carry water and an elevated cliff into this green. Notice where the pin is […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #15: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 12th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

You can have a couple different tee boxes here, and you should think about your tee shot before just punching it out there.  Because the approach shot here is so tough (you have to shoot uphill and over tall grass into this green), you’re going to want as much loft as you can use.  In […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #16: Par 5

By • Updated: Feb 25th, 2017 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This is a fun par 5 that will almost always challenge your ability to maximize distance!  About half the time you’ll be able to carry down to the second fairway with a huge A1 or C3 off the tee, and then you’ll have a great shot at eagle after your approach. If you can’t carry […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #17: Par 3

By • Updated: Sep 24th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

Here’s a really tough par 3 that can easily put a damper in your round.  You’ll have looks from both sides into this green such that it might slope right 10 degrees or left 10 degrees, and you’ll often have to maneuver a small hook against the slope to give you a birdie putt.  Water […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #18: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 12th, 2012 • Category: Bonnie Moor

Bonnie Moor finishes with a really fun and creative par 4 that’s always drivable but sometimes really tough!  The ideal setup is one where you can float a 5-wood or 3-wood straight towards the green, over the final concrete wall, and backspin to hold the green.  You don’t always have the privilege of this shot […]

Early Reviews for Golden Tee 2009’s Sunny Wood

By • Updated: Nov 13th, 2011 • Category: Sunny Wood

Here’s what the players are saying early on about Golden Tee’s new 2009 course Sunny Wood! AMJ — GT Par is -27. Jeff S — Didn’t shoot too well here either. There are some shortcuts. If you hit right….which I…..did not. AMJ — First round was with the new woods and the second round was […]



Sunny Wood — Hole #1: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 1st, 2015 • Category: Sunny Wood

You can always cut the corner through the sand and rough with a nice big C3 with roll, but you also don’t want to mess that up and be shooting out of tougher terrain on the first hole!  If you get a nice pin placement and are within 100 yards or so, you might be […]



Sunny Wood — Hole #2: Par 3

By • Updated: Feb 18th, 2012 • Category: Sunny Wood

You can be on any of 3 tee boxes here and will have some sand to negotiate, but it’s not bad.  Err towards the middle of the green if you’re in between clubs! EXAMPLE HOLE-OUT



Sunny Wood — Hole #3: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 18th, 2012 • Category: Sunny Wood

There are two ways to attack this hole, depending on where you’re at on the tee box and your level of comfort with each! If you’re on the right, your best shot is usually a C3 with backspin around the tree into the green.  It can also be a B3 shot if you’re far enough […]



Sunny Wood — Hole #4: Par 5

By • Updated: Feb 18th, 2012 • Category: Sunny Wood

I always play my drive to the middle-left side of the fairway, about even with the middle of the pond on the left.  Even if you’re in the middle of the fairway, you’ll be fine, so just don’t get too aggressive with that water off the tee!  From this area, you’ll have anything from a […]



Sunny Wood — Hole #5: Par 3

By • Updated: Feb 1st, 2015 • Category: Sunny Wood

Here’s a slightly more challenging par 3 that may force you to deal with a hill on an elevated green.  You can be on any of 4 tee boxes, so you’ll get lots of looks here.  Remember to account for that slight rise in elevation, and err towards the middle of the green if the […]



Sunny Wood — Hole #6: Par 5

By • Updated: Feb 1st, 2015 • Category: Sunny Wood

Here’s a cleverly-designed hole that can get you in trouble if you’re not careful!  You’ll notice that the second fairway is elevated and guarded by a cliff.  If you blindly select your driver and hit an A1 towards the second fairway, the cliff might catch your ball and shoot it into the water!  Instead, select […]



Sunny Wood — Hole #7: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 1st, 2015 • Category: Sunny Wood

You’ll be using a vast array of clubs on this hole depending on your tee box placement and the wind!  This green is always drivable, and you’ll usually use backspin to hold the green. The biggest danger here is the water if you go long, and it is pretty easy to miss long here too!  […]



Sunny Wood — Hole #8: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 1st, 2015 • Category: Sunny Wood

  Your first decision here will be whether or not you can clear the water, creating a shortcut to the green!  Keep in mind that a really sharp cutting shot will skip off the water, so you can use that to your advantage if needed. If you have doubts about cutting the corner, then you […]
