By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Apr 20th, 2014 • Category: Approach shots with ironsIn this article, I’ll talk about situations where the pin is on the side of the green and the wind is blowing away from the flag. A safe play here can be to thumb the ball out to the side and let the wind take the ball back towards the center of the green, but […]

Pelican Grove — Hole #1: Par 4
By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Aug 30th, 2013 • Category: Pelican GroveThis hole is probably never drivable, but there’s potential to get a shorter chip shot by cutting a big drive over to the left fairway past the sand to leave a straight-in chip. Here’s a hole-out from the end of the first fairway. VIDEO DEMO

Pelican Grove — Hole #2: Par 4
By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Feb 13th, 2014 • Category: Pelican GroveIf you are playing the Hawks, you can actually cut a high-teed driver through this forest, hope to miss bark and catch leaves — if so, you’ll find the green! Just rotate once left of alignment with the green and play a full A to 1.5 smooth high-teed driver…practice a few times to get it […]

Pelican Grove — Hole #3: Par 4
By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Nov 10th, 2013 • Category: Pelican GroveFrom the front-right box, this 4-wood was perfectly cut into a front-left pin. And this 2-hybrid was a straight shot into a right pin. From the back-left box, this shot is often a low-teed driver where you try to split the trees and keep it on the green. Here’s a great one with bite that hopped […]
Pelican Grove — Hole #4: Par 3
By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Oct 1st, 2013 • Category: Pelican GroveHere’s an ace to a left pin. VIDEO DEMO
Pelican Grove — Hole #5: Par 5
By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Mar 4th, 2018 • Category: Pelican GroveMost of the time, the best drive is to lay out even with the second sand trap to the left of the fairway. This gives you an opening in the trees for your approach — here’s a nice 3-wood curved around and in from there. This 2-bird was also curved around nicely. From farther out, […]
Pelican Grove — Hole #6: Par 4
By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Jun 4th, 2014 • Category: Pelican GroveWith the Hawks driver, you can sometimes cut a drive around these trees and get close to, if not on, this green! The high-teed A1 drive should get over the top corner of the trees to allow a shot at this. Here’s an ace with the Streaks. Here’s another one that found the cup for […]
Pelican Grove — Hole #7: Par 4
By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Nov 29th, 2013 • Category: Pelican GroveFrom the left box, you can punch a low-teed 1-iron or 2-hybrid under the leaves and through the gaps in the trees. Here’s an example with the 1-iron that found the green. This 2-bird took a couple hops right into the hole! And this 2-bird also went under to a right pin. A low-teed […]
Pelican Grove — Hole #8: Par 3
By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Oct 1st, 2013 • Category: Pelican GroveHere’s an example ace to a back pin followed by another one to a front pin. The trees can come into play if you are reckless with your tee shot, so always play inside out to pins on the either side of the green — here’s a nice ace to a right pin. VIDEO DEMO
Pelican Grove — Hole #9: Par 5
By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Mar 4th, 2018 • Category: Pelican GroveThis short par 5 is drivable, perhaps a couple ways, in some cases! Here’s a big C3 cutter around the right side that caught a late water skip and held the green. Here’s another one. This high-teed driver took a bigger angle and caught a boost from a branch to shoot it up on the […]
Pelican Grove — Hole #10: Par 4
By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Jan 3rd, 2014 • Category: Pelican GroveThe safest option if you want to try to drive this green is to cut over the top — check out this high-teed 5-wood that hit the stick! Here’s another one that found the hole. The angle of cut may depend on the wind and distance required, as you can see from those 2 examples. […]
Pelican Grove — Hole #11: Par 4
By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Jun 1st, 2014 • Category: Pelican GroveThere are some setups where you can drive this green, or at least the sand for a chip. This big A1 driver hopped the sand and almost found the hole! But this huge A1 drive got the hops it needed to bury in a back pin! Otherwise, you can usually cut around the left side […]
Pelican Grove — Hole #12: Par 3
By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Oct 1st, 2013 • Category: Pelican GroveHere’s an ace from the back-center box. From the front-right box, this 9-wood got under and found a right cup. VIDEO DEMO
Pelican Grove — Hole #13: Par 5
By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Jun 4th, 2014 • Category: Pelican GroveLay up along the left side of the fairway to give yourself the best approach at this green — here’s an example hole-out. This 3-wood cut through the trees to fight the wind into a left pin! Check out this driver dunk that missed the branches on the approach! And then there’s this unbelievable shot […]
Pelican Grove — Hole #14: Par 4
By Golden Tee Fan • Updated: Jun 18th, 2014 • Category: Pelican GroveFrom the front box, you may be able to carry a big C3 high-teed driver around and onto the green — this one came pretty close! This one did carry through the sand and roll up onto the green for an eagle putt! Just lay up along the left side of the fairway in the […]
