Bear Lodge — Hole #9: Par 5

You can reach the green either from the narrow strip to the left or by blasting a long drive down the fairway.  If you can confidently hit towards the second half of the narrow strip given a good tee box, you’ll be rewarded with an easier approach shot — here’s a great 5-wood hole-out from […]


Bear Lodge — Hole #10: Par 4

By • Updated: Oct 4th, 2012 • Category: Bear Lodge

Here’s an example hole-out after a long drive around the corner. It works perfectly well to lay up straight ahead between the sand too — here’s a straight-in hole-out from there.  At worst you may have a small cut into a left pin. VIDEO DEMO


Bear Lodge — Hole #11: Par 3

By • Updated: Mar 4th, 2018 • Category: Bear Lodge

Here’s a nice 7-wood from the front-left box followed by a 5-wood ace from the back-right box. VIDEO DEMO


Bear Lodge — Hole #12: Par 4

By • Updated: Oct 4th, 2012 • Category: Bear Lodge

Here’s a great hole-out playing a small curve around the trees. If you lay back farther left, you’ll have a better angle to the green — here’s a 5-wood dunk. VIDEO DEMO


Bear Lodge — Hole #13: Par 5

By • Updated: Oct 17th, 2012 • Category: Bear Lodge

Most of the time it’s just fine hitting straight out to the fairway — you may need just a small cut into the green.  Here’s a great 3-wood curved around and in. The only time it may be rough is if the wind is blowing away from the green towards the water.  In this case, […]


Bear Lodge — Hole #14: Par 4

By • Updated: Aug 7th, 2013 • Category: Bear Lodge

Some guys have gotten close to driving the green here, at least getting close enough for a short chip shot.  Check out this insane long drive.  Don’t expect these results, but check out how this high-teed driver skipped the water with a tailwind! It’s never a bad option to lay up behind the sand straight […]


Bear Lodge — Hole #15: Par 4

By • Updated: Oct 18th, 2012 • Category: Bear Lodge

Here’s a nice 5-wood ace around the left side from the back-right box.  Here’s another one over the top of the right side.  And check out the unbelievable deflection this one gets off the rock face! This 5-wood dunked in the hole from the next box to the left. Here’s a 3-wood one-hopper from the […]


Bear Lodge — Hole #16: Par 5

By • Updated: Jun 4th, 2013 • Category: Bear Lodge

Here’s a tough par 5 that can be really difficult to reach in two.  It often takes two great shots.  Here are your options off the tee: 1) If you have the distance, blast it straight ahead through the fairway into the rough by any means possible.  This gets you a pretty straight look into […]


Bear Lodge — Hole #17: Par 3

By • Updated: Oct 25th, 2012 • Category: Bear Lodge

Lots of tee boxes here, from the side to the back, will give you many challenging looks.  Here’s a 9-iron from the side that caught a nice bounce into the hole.  This one was well-played to a left-center pin. This one was well-played from behind the hole, and so was this one.  And this shot found […]


Bear Lodge — Hole #18: Par 4

By • Updated: May 4th, 2013 • Category: Bear Lodge

From the front-left box, a wood can easily clear the trees right at the green.  This high-teed 4-wood found the cup.  You don’t even need a tee if the distance works out for you and you need to retain backspin — this medium-teed driver went at it just fine.  If you are so inclined, here’s […]

Here is a description of this new course for Golden Tee 2012: “Built along Route 66, Dusty Bend Golf Course seems like a step back in time.

An Ode to Golden Tee Courses

By • Updated: Nov 6th, 2011 • Category: 2011 - Golden Tee LIVE 2012, Miscellaneous

Eighty-six courses designed mighty fine, From 2012 back to 1989. One was Great, while 2 were Grand, A King dubbed three Royal with his mighty hand. Two Eagles soared high with majestic Crests, While a Falcon and Kiwi flew along as their guests. A Crawdad approaches, not one you can eat, A Scorpion and Rattlesnake […]


Excitement for Golden Tee 2012!

Golden Tee 2012 is here!  Check out the 2012 Courses category for more on each course, but this article will focus on what’s new in the upcoming release! First, we know that we now have a third option for ball spin.  We know how to use backspin and roll, but now we’ve been given a […]


Tundra Peak — Hole #1: Par 4

By • Updated: Aug 5th, 2014 • Category: Tundra Peak

Enjoy one of the few flat holes on this course!  Lay up anywhere and bring it in for birdie.  Here’s an example hole-out. VIDEO DEMO


Tundra Peak — Hole #2: Par 4

By • Updated: Aug 5th, 2014 • Category: Tundra Peak

With a great tee box and wind, you can get within chipping distance off the tee here, so keep that in mind for a better chance of a hole-out!  A C3 from the front left of the box is ideal. You can also ram a medium-teed driver with roll straight ahead and hope to catch […]


Tundra Peak — Hole #3: Par 3

By • Updated: Aug 5th, 2014 • Category: Tundra Peak

It’s a ways downhill, so compensate a bit extra for the elevation and wind.  Here’s an example hole-out. VIDEO DEMO


Tundra Peak — Hole #4: Par 5

By • Updated: Aug 5th, 2014 • Category: Tundra Peak

The safest play is to the layup patch out to the right.  It’s usually a 4-5-wood to get there, almost always high-teed for extra elevation and distance.  There’s some snow short, so you absolutely must carry it there — bank off the ice on the back if you need to.  That should leave you with […]


Tundra Peak — Hole #5: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 2nd, 2018 • Category: Tundra Peak

If you’re towards the back middle of the box, a high-teed 3-wood can take aim directly at a center pin and clear the mountain!  Keep this in mind as you line up your shot, because you may not have to curve it around. Otherwise, you’ll need to be accurate enough to curve your ball around […]


Tundra Peak — Hole #6: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 2nd, 2018 • Category: Tundra Peak

Just lay back short of the sand for your approach shot — here’s an example hole-out.  Even if you do carry into the sand, you should still be able to loft a shot into the green.  And here’s a hole-out after a long drive out to the second part of the fairway. VIDEO DEMO


Tundra Peak — Hole #7: Par 3

By • Updated: Aug 5th, 2014 • Category: Tundra Peak

Similar to hole #3 but a different distance.  Again, it’s a ways downhill, so compensate a bit extra for the elevation and wind.  Here’s an example hole-out. VIDEO DEMO


Tundra Peak — Hole #8: Par 5

By • Updated: Aug 5th, 2014 • Category: Tundra Peak

You’ll always be aiming out left for the green patch in the mountains.  It’s a bit uphill, so you’ll need a little extra loft and distance — something like a high-teed 3-wood may work well.  If you are a bit short, though, you can often bounce up the ice and onto the patch, so aim […]
