Summit Lakes — Hole #18: Par 4

By Deprecated: Function the_author_posts_link was called with an argument that is deprecated since version 2.1.0 with no alternative available. in /var/web/site/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6085 • Updated: Feb 25th, 2017 • Category: Summit Lakes

Summit finishes with an almost always drivable par 4. From the back of this box, a 5-wood will go straight over the mountain. Most times, though, you will have to curve it around the mountain with an A1-type shot with backspin and hope for a safe landing on the green. Here’s a great 3-wood ace. […]

Bayou Bay — Hole #1: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 22nd, 2012 • Category: Bayou Bay

A long, mostly unreachable par 4 to start off. Set up your drive for an easy, accurate approach into this large green.  Here’s an example hole-out.


Misty Springs — Hole #1: Par 4

By • Updated: Jun 26th, 2019 • Category: Misty Springs

Only one tee box, but you can be placed anywhere on it. If you’re on the front of the tee box, you can get there with a power straight shot or an A1 or C3 (watch the trees on the right) driver. Also notice where the pin is — you don’t want to end up […]


Eagle Crest — Hole #1: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 22nd, 2012 • Category: Eagle Crest

Let’s get started! This one is straight-forward.Drive it straight, bring your approach in, and putt for birdie.  Here’s an example hole-out.


Bayou Bay — Hole #2: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 22nd, 2012 • Category: Bayou Bay

Another long par 4 where you usually need to avoid the trees on the right and lay up at the end of the fairway. It’s sometimes drivable with a big A1 off the front tees when the wind is blowing to the right. Don’t leave your approach shot short in the sand!  Here’s an example […]


Misty Springs — Hole #2: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Misty Springs

Just hit to the left side of the fairway here and you won’t have to worry about the hill or trees on the right. Here’s an example hole-out.  Even if you run up the hill on the right, it will roll back down to the middle and you should be fine.


Bayou Bay — Hole #3: Par 3

By • Updated: Jan 22nd, 2012 • Category: Bayou Bay

If you’re among the tee boxes on the right, watch out for the trees – you may need to hit a B1 shot to avoid them. Don’t let your shot leak too far right towards the water! There is a hill behind the green that will stop an aggressive shot at a back pin.  Here’s […]


Misty Springs — Hole #3: Par 3

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Misty Springs

If the pin is hugging the edge, it makes it tougher to attack the flag here, but you should still come away with birdie.  Here’s an example hole-out. You may want to club up and play a small right-to-left hook with backspin to tuck the ball up to a left-side pin placement.


Bayou Bay — Hole #4: Par 5

By • Updated: Feb 25th, 2017 • Category: Bayou Bay

There are so many looks here it’s hard to list them all, but below are several examples of how you can attack this hole for eagle. From the far left front box, click left a ways and you can see a green landing area with a house to the left of it. An easy B1 […]


Misty Springs — Hole #4: Par 5

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Misty Springs

A few different tee boxes here, but the same layup spot every time. Hit to the right side of the fairway and leave yourself a nice 5-wood or 3-wood into the green, which will usually require some kind of B3 shot to curve around the trees. Here’s a nice hole-out to a back pin.  And […]


Bayou Bay — Hole #5: Par 4

By • Updated: Aug 23rd, 2019 • Category: Bayou Bay

Reachable in one, but the difficulty depends on your setup with the wind. If the wind is blowing right, it helps a ton – hit a slight B.5 – 1.5 out to the left to dodge the trees on the right. Anything else, and you’ll usually be hitting more of a A-B to 1-2 shot […]


Misty Springs — Hole #5: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Misty Springs

Always drivable from any tee box. If you’re on the big left box, it’s usually a straight shot. If you’re on one of the 3 to the right, you’ll have to curve it around some trees. Backspin is usually required, but not always.  Here’s a nice ace with a small cut around the trees, and […]


Bayou Bay — Hole #6: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 22nd, 2012 • Category: Bayou Bay

There are two greens on this hole! There’s only one situation where this hole is drivable – if the green is the left green, if you’re on the front of the left 3 tee boxes, and if you hit a big C3 — here’s an awesome skip-ace from the front box!. Otherwise, in most cases, […]


Misty Springs — Hole #6: Par 3

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Misty Springs

This green slopes to the right towards water, so make sure you’re not coming in from a left-to-right angle, or you may very well find that water (especially if you applied backspin, which can help pull it in the water too)!  With a back pin, this shot worked well.


Bayou Bay — Hole #7: Par 3

By • Updated: Jan 22nd, 2012 • Category: Bayou Bay

Stay out of the water on this long par 3 of around 300 yards. It’s usually a driver with backspin, and you want to land on the right side of the green since there’s strong break left towards the water.  Here’s an example ace.


Misty Springs — Hole #7: Par 5

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Misty Springs

Two shortcut options here, and both will challenge you. From some tee boxes, you can turn left a few times and hit a 5-wood or 3-wood over the trees and onto the green landing zone in the forest (this is the one with the outhouse). This patch leaves a nice path through gaps in the […]


Bayou Bay — Hole #8: Par 5

By • Updated: Feb 25th, 2017 • Category: Bayou Bay

Another Par 5 with tons of options, but it’s simplified into two main approaches. First of all, from all the tee boxes, you should locate the tee box up to the front and right. It’s about 300 yards into the green from there, and there’s a tree right in the middle of your approach from […]


Misty Springs — Hole #8: Par 4

By • Updated: Apr 3rd, 2017 • Category: Misty Springs

Another always drivable par 4 from all tee boxes. Sometimes you’ll be set up for a straight 5-wood to driver, but mostly you’ll be hitting a B1 around the left of the trees with a 5-wood to driver. If you can land the green, don’t use backspin – just let the hill stop your ball. […]


Bayou Bay — Hole #9: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 25th, 2017 • Category: Bayou Bay

A very tough hole to stick the green off your drive, and sometimes it’s best just to lay up. From the left set of boxes, a C3 or B3 around the trees will get you there with a 5-wood to driver. From the right boxes, an A1 or B1 5-wood to driver will get there […]


Misty Springs — Hole #9: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 25th, 2017 • Category: Misty Springs

Sometimes the tee box is across the water and it makes this hole more difficult, but the key is just to hammer your tee shot down the fairway (either an A1 or a long, straight drive down the left side) and stay away from the trees on the right. Even if you’re in the middle […]


Bayou Bay — Hole #10: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 22nd, 2012 • Category: Bayou Bay

There are two fairways to choose from, but 1 green. If you can make it to the left fairway (usually a C3 shot), you’ll have an easy approach shot. If you’re on the far left box, you can look left a ways and hit a driver through the gap in the trees to the fairway. […]


Misty Springs — Hole #10: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Misty Springs

You’ll be hitting to 1 of 2 fairways here, but either should be easy — just hit it far and leave a good approach shot. From the right tees, you can blast an A1 far enough out to leave a nice approach shot.  If possible, though, try to roll your ball off the top fairway […]
