Misty Springs — Hole #15: Par 4

This hole is usually drivable – just use your placement on the tee box and the wind to know whether it’s best to go around the right side or the left side of the trees. If you’re somewhere in the middle, it’s a nice wood shot to the green.  Here’s a pretty straight hole-out. If […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #3: Par 3

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Cypress Cove

Sometimes pin placement can make it tough to attack the flag, so make sure you get your birdie here. You just have to read the pin and the wind to know which type of shot is best. The wind affects the ball more here because it’s a downhill shot.  The green has a strange shape […]



Bayou Bay — Hole #16: Par 5

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Bayou Bay

If you’re on the left box, you can turn left a ways for a tee box landing zone, or aim down the fairway and hit a C3 down the fairway and around the water. You’ll have an easy iron in from here. The middle set of boxes makes this hole tough. The fairway is similar […]



Misty Springs — Hole #16: Par 5

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

This is the second toughest hole ever, and the toughest par 5 ever. There are 2 ways to get eagle here. If the wind somewhere between barely going left to all the way right, hit far down the left side of the fairway (C3 may be good for added distance). Try to leave yourself with […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #4: Par 5

By • Updated: Oct 1st, 2012 • Category: Cypress Cove

Several options here to leave you an approach shot to the green in 2. If you’re close enough to hit it down past the sand on the left and onto the lower fairway, hit it there and close to the water, as far left as possible. You’ll have a 3-wood with backspin to the green. […]



Bayou Bay — Hole #17: Par 3

By • Updated: Aug 18th, 2017 • Category: Bayou Bay

The tee shot on this par 3 can be anywhere from a putter to a driver! If you get a really close tee box, you can hit a putter down the hill to the green. Be careful with a downhill putt here, because this green likes the rollovers. With a funky wind from this close […]



Misty Springs — Hole #17: Par 3

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

This hole can set up VERY tough! You can have anywhere between an 80-yard shot and a 250-yard shot. The green slopes big time left towards the water, and the wind is usually wicked. If you’re really close with a sick crosswind, try Sobe’s “arcade shot”. This is when you go left of the hole […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #5: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Cypress Cove

Always drivable, but difficulty depends on your setup. For most setups, it’s an easy thumb shot with a 5-wood to driver.  Here’s a nice 3-wood hole-out.  Here’s another 3-wood hole-out from different box. The only time this hole is tough is when you’re on the tee box behind the trees. If you are close and […]



Bayou Bay — Hole #18: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Bayou Bay

This par 4 is always drivable, although sometimes it’s 370 into a big wind. With water all around this tiny green you only want to go for this hole if it’s easy or if you have to have eagle to beat your opponent. An 8-iron to driver, always with backspin, is the club here.  Here’s […]



Misty Springs — Hole #18: Par 4

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

An “always” drivable par 4. If this hole looks like death, that’s because it just killed the foursome in front of you. This is THE toughest hole in all of Golden Tee Golf. From the front box closest to the trees, a 5-wood will get under the trees if you’re close. If you’re on the […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #6: Par 3

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Cypress Cove

Just make sure you’re not short!  Be careful with a front pin and a low-lofted club.  If you thumb it, you have a good chance of ending up short in the water.  Club up or pull back to get extra loft hitting uphill to this green.  Here’s an example hole-out.



Cypress Cove — Hole #7: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Cypress Cove

This green is sometimes drivable with a lucky turbo-bouncing C3, but watch out! This green is 250-feet across, so if you’re on the wrong end of the green, you could be 3-putting from 200+ feet! It’s better just to shoot a straight driver 300+ in the fairway to get a clear look at attacking the […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #8: Par 5

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Cypress Cove

From every tee box, you will either be turning left once to blast an A1 driver with topspin, or you will be turning right once to hit a C3 driver with topspin. Hit this one hard. If you get past the sand, you’re gold. Even if you’re in the sand but you get out far […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #9: Par 4

By • Updated: Sep 24th, 2012 • Category: Cypress Cove

This par 4 is drivable 75% of the time, but it’s very challenging. The front left box gives you the best chance. Aim for the right side of the green and hit a C3 5-wood to 3-wood with backspin, The follow-through is the key here — make sure you hit enough “3” so you don’t […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #10: Par 4

By • Updated: Sep 4th, 2019 • Category: Cypress Cove

This hole is sometimes drivable, especially from the front left box with a good wind. Just hit a C3 into the green. Sometimes with a headwind you’ll need to blast a C3 and catch a lucky bounce but you can still get there.  Here’s a high-teed driver ace! From the next box back, it’s only […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #11: Par 5

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Cypress Cove

If you can get to the second fairway across the water, this one is easy. Stay right as much as you can, because the fairway slopes left. Here’s an example hole-out from there. Just watch out for this fringe when you’re on the green, because it really throws putts off track! If you cannot clear […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #12: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Cypress Cove

Here’s another always drivable par 4. This hole can be an easy straight wood shot, an A1 or a C3, all depending on the tee box. From the left box, you can come straight at it — here’s a hole-out from there. If you’re toward the middle of the boxes, an A1 5-wood will clear […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #13: Par 3

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Cypress Cove

Once again, make sure you’re not short!  This one can be tough too.  With a front pin, aim for the back of the green and use backspin.  Here’s an example hole-out. With a back pin, make sure you aim for the back of the green again with no roll.  The wind affects tee shots here […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #14: Par 5

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Cypress Cove

You’ll need a big A1 drive off the tee with topspin (into a headwind) or backspin (with a tailwind), also depending on the angle you get from tee. Make sure you get the ball as far left on the fairway as you can without actually going in the rough, and you’ll have the best approach […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #15: Par 4

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Cypress Cove

The best way to play this hole is to position your drive so that you have a low-lofted club into the green (a huge tree will catch any high-lofted approach shot). You need to get out far enough past the trees on the left, but not so far that the big approach tree is too […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #16: Par 3

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Cypress Cove

Here’s a tough par 3 that can ruin your round. This hole can set up anywhere from a sand wedge to a 3-wood depending on the tee box and wind, but it always has a hard left-sloping green towards the sand. If you’re close enough for a small iron or wedge, and the wind is […]



Hawk Set (Formerly 2005 Archive set: EDGE CFT ‘H’ club set (Hybrids))

By • Updated: Feb 25th, 2013 • Category: Golden Tee golf clubs

This set of clubs in Golden Tee, often referred to as the “old birds,” came from the 2005 Live version of Golden Tee. This set includes many hybrids to help with shots out of the rough or other tough lies and includes a 3-wood. Here are the golf clubs included with this set: Standard driver:300 […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #17: Par 5

By • Updated: Jan 28th, 2012 • Category: Cypress Cove

This long par 5 has a tee shot that is sometimes the toughest in the game. To get there in 2, you’ll need to go down the squiggly fairway and be close enough to get a wood to the green. Hitting to just in-between the first 2 bunkers will leave you about 360-400 to the […]



Cypress Cove — Hole #18: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 25th, 2017 • Category: Cypress Cove

Here is one of the most favorable finishing holes in Golden Tee, where you should end up with a birdie at worst. This par 4 is always drivable, but it can set up for a straight wood shot or be a difficult C3 or A1. Just remember when hitting this shot that you don’t need […]



Eagle Crest — Hole #2: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 25th, 2017 • Category: Eagle Crest

Play from a B.5 – 2.5 to C3 drive depending on the wind. Curve it around that corner and keep it in the fairway. From the front box, use backspin so you don’t go too far and have a tree in your way. From the back box, use topspin so you stay on the fairway […]



Eagle Crest — Hole #3: Par 3

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

Huge green, so don’t be short! Use backspin with a front pin, or use no spin, land and roll up with a back pin.  Here’s a hole-out from the middle box.



Eagle Crest — Hole #4: Par 5

By • Updated: Jul 11th, 2017 • Category: Eagle Crest

Several options here, but option one is by far the consensus way to attack this hole for eagle. UPDATE – Learned more recently, this hole can be drivable!  Check out the second hole played in this Freaky Friday video, where a high-teed A1 310 driver went under the first set of trees and over the […]



Eagle Crest — Hole #5: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 25th, 2017 • Category: Eagle Crest

From the front tees, you can play a huge C3 driver with topspin to roll onto the green. From the middle box, you can sometimes play the same shot and bounce on. From the back, you can’t get there, so lay up and bring an approach in for a birdie putt.



Eagle Crest — Hole #6: Par 3

By • Updated: Feb 25th, 2017 • Category: Eagle Crest

Another huge green. Use backspin with a front pin, and use topspin or no roll to get to a back pin.



Eagle Crest — Hole #7: Par 4

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

Not drivable, so don’t try it. From the front tees, the safe play is to hit a C3 5-iron with backspin to cut the corner a bit. Rather, you can rotate left 3 times, hit a driver with topspin through a gap in the trees, and end up in the fairway or rough just past […]
