Auburn Glen — Hole #4: Par 4

The best shot here may be a C2ish driver with backspin.  You can skip if off the water (not preferred, but doable) and/or ram into the hill short of the green (preferred), rolling up and on.   Cutting into the hill kills the velocity — here’s a great hole-out using that approach!  Here’s another low-teed driver […]


Auburn Glen — Hole #5: Par 5

By • Updated: Apr 3rd, 2017 • Category: Auburn Glen

First, check if you can blast your drive down straight ahead to the second fairway.  If so, you can end up with a fairly straight approach shot. Otherwise, you just need to nail the correct layup spot for a shortcut to the right through the trees — it will take a little practice to learn […]


Auburn Glen — Hole #6: Par 4

By • Updated: Nov 6th, 2011 • Category: Auburn Glen

If you’re playing the Flares, you can lay back before the fairway gets too narrow — here’s a great 9-wood hole-out to a back left pin, and here’s a dunk to a right pin. If you want to take the skill and decision making out of this shot, just blast it straight as far as you can. […]


Auburn Glen — Hole #7: Par 4

By • Updated: Apr 3rd, 2017 • Category: Auburn Glen

Over or under, that’s the question!  The safest shot is usually a low-teed driver straight at the green under the bridge.  You don’t have to hit it as hard as you think either — you should have plenty of loft and distance to carry the water, and you want the ball to stop before skidding […]


Auburn Glen — Hole #8: Par 3

By • Updated: Apr 3rd, 2017 • Category: Auburn Glen

Sometimes higher-lofted clubs can help you float shots in here, especially when the pin is tucked to the right. Here’s a low-lofter to a center pin. VIDEO DEMO


Auburn Glen — Hole #9: Par 5

By • Updated: Aug 3rd, 2012 • Category: Auburn Glen

Most of the time, you should be aiming at the fairway straight ahead, especially with a tailwind!  Take a high tee and see if you can get past, or at least stay left, of the sand traps there.  Here’s a hole-out from the fairway after a long drive straight ahead.  It’s not as far as you think […]


Auburn Glen — Hole #10: Par 4

By • Updated: Nov 6th, 2011 • Category: Auburn Glen

Nothing fancy off the tee here, just poke it out right and bring in your approach.  Here is a dunk from the fairway!  Here’s another nice hole-out to a back pin. VIDEO DEMO


Auburn Glen — Hole #11: Par 4

By • Updated: Apr 3rd, 2017 • Category: Auburn Glen

Here’s a tricky hole that will test your skill.  The tee shot to the right is difficult to stick due to the narrow fairway, but you’ll be rewarded with a straight approach shot for an easy birdie if you pull it off — here’s a hole-out from there. If you do play down the left […]


Auburn Glen — Hole #12: Par 5

By • Updated: Apr 3rd, 2017 • Category: Auburn Glen

It’s all about the tee shot here.  Either use a high tee to try to carry the sand to the second part of the fairway, or play a driver cut shot with roll and try to thread the needle past the sand.  You’re good from past the sand.  This driver hole-out uses the hill as […]


Auburn Glen — Hole #13: Par 3

By • Updated: Nov 6th, 2011 • Category: Auburn Glen

There are a couple of tee boxes here — one shot is longer into the upslope, and one is from the right where the green slopes left.  It’s usually up to the tee, wind and pin to decide whether high or low lofted clubs are better here for the shot into the upslope, but you’ll […]


Auburn Glen — Hole #14: Par 4

By • Updated: Apr 3rd, 2017 • Category: Auburn Glen

The safest shot for you here is to high-tee a 4 or 5-wood over the top of the barn at the same angle as it runs.  If you miss this shot too far right, the tree guarding the green will halt your progress.  Likely you will clip some leaves but have enough momentum to carry […]


Auburn Glen — Hole #15: Par 4

By • Updated: Nov 6th, 2011 • Category: Auburn Glen

If you don’t have a 7-wood or 9-wood, make sure you lay back towards the top of the fairway to the left to use your 5-wood on the approach.  Actually, you can be a bit of the way down the slope for a 5-wood — here’s an example hole-out.  Here’s a 9-wood hole-out from towards […]


Auburn Glen — Hole #16: Par 5

By • Updated: Nov 6th, 2012 • Category: Auburn Glen

If the wind is NOT blowing left and/or straight out, you’ll try to curve the ball around the mountain to the right and land on the green patch that surrounds it.   The farther around you go, the better approach shot you’ll have, because a driver can be very tough especially with a left pin. […]


Auburn Glen — Hole #17: Par 3

By • Updated: Apr 3rd, 2017 • Category: Auburn Glen

This hole also has two tee boxes — one from the left and one straight on.  Here is where you really need Hawks or a set with low-lofted irons.  With a 7-wood or 9-wood, you may have an awful time trying to keep your round intact. From the left, here’s a perfectly-played ace.  Here’s another […]


Auburn Glen — Hole #18: Par 4

By • Updated: Apr 3rd, 2017 • Category: Auburn Glen

In the minds of many, Auburn lets you off the hook with a very doable finishing hole.  You’ll have a pretty straight shot through the gap to this green.  Above all else, aim for the fat part of the green closest to the pin and give yourself a putt.  You’ll need to nail your distance, […]


Preparing for Golden Tee 2011

By • Updated: Apr 3rd, 2017 • Category: 2010 - Golden Tee LIVE 2011, Improvement

Golden Tee 2011 is only two months away!  While it’s hard not to get excited for the new courses and features, due to ship in the last week of September to bars with eager vendors, you’ve still got a few weeks left to work on your 2010 game.  Since you’ve probably been playing 2010 for […]


Grand Canyon — Hole #1: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 12th, 2012 • Category: Grand Canyon

This opening hole is drivable with a high tee from the front box — check out this nice little hop!  This hole-out didn’t even require a high tee because the look was so good — nice. Here’s an amazing hole-out from the middle box with a huge A1 high-teed driver!  Here’s another amazing ace with […]


Grand Canyon — Hole #2: Par 4

By • Updated: Nov 6th, 2011 • Category: Grand Canyon

Nothing special here either — just pick a spot and bring it in for birdie.  Here’s an example hole-out. VIDEO DEMO


Grand Canyon — Hole #3: Par 3

By • Updated: Nov 6th, 2011 • Category: Grand Canyon

This green is big and fairly flat, so don’t lose a stroke here trying to chase a pin tucked away to the edge.  Keep the pin between your ball and the rough, make your birdie, and move on.  Here’s an example hole-out. VIDEO DEMO


Grand Canyon — Hole #4: Par 5

By • Updated: Nov 6th, 2011 • Category: Grand Canyon

There’s never an issue taking it out to the right fairway.  Make sure you carry it far enough but not all the way through, as it slopes downward a bit.  Use a tee or backspin to stick the center of it.  Here’s an example hole-out from the right fairway. There may be certain wind conditions […]


Grand Canyon — Hole #5: Par 4

By • Updated: Dec 9th, 2011 • Category: Grand Canyon

This hole tests your elevation control, as the wind will play a big part on the way down.  You shouldn’t need to apply any spin here unless you have a tailwind, in which case you should use bite or backspin.  You may also use bite if a side-wind is blowing away from the flag.  Here’s […]


Grand Canyon — Hole #6: Par 4

By • Updated: Nov 6th, 2011 • Category: Grand Canyon

Here’s another standard, flat par 4 where nothing but fairway or green should ever come into play.  Here’s an example hole-out. VIDEO DEMO


Grand Canyon — Hole #7: Par 3

By • Updated: Nov 6th, 2011 • Category: Grand Canyon

This par 3 is where things start to get slightly tricky.  This usually isn’t the place to go pin-hunting either — do what you can to stick the middle of the green and give yourself a putt.  Don’t bring any trouble into play by being too aggressive, because this front 9 is very manageable and […]


Grand Canyon — Hole #8: Par 5

By • Updated: Nov 6th, 2011 • Category: Grand Canyon

I haven’t seen a need yet to even consider the right fairway.  The left fairway is always reachable, usually without a high tee, but you might want a high tee to be safe.  Line up with the fairway that juts towards you and hit it straight and hard.  This should leave you a nice approach […]


Grand Canyon — Hole #9: Par 4

By • Updated: Apr 3rd, 2017 • Category: Grand Canyon

From almost every setup, a high-teed 9-wood can go straight at the green if you’ve got the distance.  Here’s a perfect example of where you’d play this shot to a back pin.  This one actually comes at it from the left — what a crazy shot!  And this one involves a bank, which is even […]


Grand Canyon — Hole #10: Par 4

By • Updated: Aug 7th, 2012 • Category: Grand Canyon

This hole looks harder than it actually plays.  Rotate right a couple clicks and play a C2.5-type shot with a hard cut around the mountain, usually with backspin.  This helps the ball come back left and gives you a better angle at the green.  No matter where you end up off the tee, you should […]


Grand Canyon — Hole #11: Par 3

By • Updated: Nov 6th, 2011 • Category: Grand Canyon

Lots of tee boxes here create many different looks at this downhill par 3.  Account extra for the wind and recognize the presence of a big grassy hill on the right — it can help or hurt you depending on how you bring it into play.  Again, the best shot is to the center of […]


Grand Canyon — Hole #12: Par 5

By • Updated: Apr 3rd, 2017 • Category: Grand Canyon

The left or right fairway works here — it’s usually wind-specific.  To the right, you can hit it long and straight or curve a big A1-type shot over there, trying to get past the sand.  You don’t have to be dead accurate — it can bounce off the walls a bit and settle, still giving […]


Grand Canyon — Hole #13: Par 4

By • Updated: Apr 3rd, 2017 • Category: Grand Canyon

This is the hole that seems to define your round.  The risk/reward is more evident here than anywhere.  It requires a precise A1-type curve around this mountain with exact distance to hold this green and give yourself an eagle putt.  If you miss in any direction, you risk the chance of a re-tee, which is […]


Grand Canyon — Hole #14: Par 4

By • Updated: Apr 3rd, 2017 • Category: Grand Canyon

If you get the front left box, you can high-tee a 3-wood and play a small cut through the gap — here’s an ace from that box. From the middle box, this hole may be drivable — check out this high-teed 3-wood that nearly went in!  It takes a precise shot through this gap, but it […]
