Turtle Island — Hole #9: Par 5

Put your drive down in the fairway close to the lava to give yourself a driver straight in over the trees on your approach — here’s an example hole-out. If your drive comes up short and/or you need more distance because you’re around 350 out, then play a big C3 driver shot as your approach […]



Turtle Island — Hole #10: Par 4

By • Updated: Nov 5th, 2013 • Category: Turtle Island

Many times you can just lay back in the first fairway and loft your approach over the tree to the green.  Consider laying back to the left for a 5-wood approach if you don’t have a 7-wood or higher in the bag.  Or, you can carry towards the end of the first fairway and curve […]



Turtle Island — Hole #11: Par 5

By • Updated: Mar 4th, 2018 • Category: Turtle Island

Unless the wind will be strong in your face on the approach (and maybe even then), you can lay up straight ahead in the fairway in line with the lava pit on the left.  This should leave an open driver approach into the green — here’s an example hole-out. Or, you can take the traditional […]

Here’s an example ace to a front pin followed by another one to a back pin. VIDEO DEMO



Turtle Island — Hole #13: Par 4

By • Updated: Aug 30th, 2014 • Category: Turtle Island

This green can rarely be drivable given a great setup — this big A1 shot would have gotten there if not for a bush at the end!  This A1 did graze by the hole, leaving a short chip.  This A1 settled nicely on the green. And this big C3 drive did carry to the green!  Here’s […]



Turtle Island — Hole #14: Par 4

By • Updated: Mar 4th, 2018 • Category: Turtle Island

The shot here depends on the wind.  With a head-wind, you’ll often high-tee a 3-wood over the top of the trees. This high-teed 5-wood carried into the back rock but caught a great deflection into the cup! With a right-blowing wind, you can aim left and pretty much take the trees out of the picture […]



Turtle Island — Hole #15: Par 5

By • Updated: Oct 23rd, 2013 • Category: Turtle Island

Most of the time you can high tee a driver straight ahead to the far-left fairway.  Another option is to rotate right and play a C3 shot with roll out there instead.  Check out this nice hole-out to a front pin.  And here’s a 4-wood hole-out using the back-right of the hill as a backstop. […]



Turtle Island — Hole #16: Par 3

From the back box, check out the bounces this 5-wood gets off the rock before it finds the cup.  Here’s another terrible shot that kicks all the way over and somehow into the hole!  And this 9-wood rattled around off the rock too and settled back in the cup!  There can be quite a bit […]



Turtle Island — Hole #17: Par 4

By • Updated: Nov 22nd, 2013 • Category: Turtle Island

Clearing the hill is not that difficult from anywhere in this fairway, but if you can get closer by aiming for the back left fairway, go for it.  This approach shot caught a nice hop off the front rock and settled into a back pin. This shot was way too far left, but the rock […]



Turtle Island — Hole #18: Par 4

By • Updated: Aug 5th, 2014 • Category: Turtle Island

This 3-wood caught tree and hill but still settled down and backspun into a left pin!  This 5-wood also used a nice bounce off the hill to find a front-left pin.  This 5-wood with no roll settled nicely into a back pin. And this driver curved around quite accurately, catching a back pin before tumbling […]

From the middle box, here’s a huge C3 driver that carried onto the green! Here’s a giant A1 that hopped the last bunker and also made it on! VIDEO DEMO



Highland Links — Hole #2: Par 4

By • Updated: Dec 25th, 2013 • Category: Highland Links

From the middle box, this hole can be drivable — this high-teed driver came up just a few feet short of the cup!  But this high-teed driver did find a right pin with distance to spare!  Here’s another with the Hawks. Otherwise, just lay up in the fairway and avoid the sand and rough — […]

Highland Links — Hole #4: Par 5

By • Updated: Mar 4th, 2018 • Category: Highland Links

On this short par 5, you don’t even have to worry about driving past the sand trap in the fairway.  If you lay up short, you’ll have plenty of distance and elevation to carry over on the approach — here’s a 3-wood with bite that sucked right into the hole. VIDEO DEMO



Highland Links — Hole #5: Par 4

By • Updated: May 25th, 2014 • Category: Highland Links

If you’re feeling aggressive, this hole can be drivable, but you could also end up in a nasty spot in the pot bunker by the green.  From the back-right box, here’s one that hopped the one in front and rammed into the cup!  Here’s another one that rammed in — amazing!  It’s typically an A1 […]

Highland Links — Hole #8: Par 5

By • Updated: Nov 16th, 2013 • Category: Highland Links

This short par 5 only asks that you stay out of the sand for a chance at eagle.  In some cases you can blast a drive past all the sand for a short approach — here’s a short DE hole-out. There’s some open fairway in the second-left fairway in the middle of all the sand. […]



Highland Links — Hole #9: Par 4

By • Updated: Mar 4th, 2018 • Category: Highland Links

You’ll usually want to fly over the rock mountain in the middle of the fairway, but you’ll have to make sure you have enough loft.  From the back box, this medium-teed 3-wood played a small cut left-to-right to ensure it cleared, and then it found the cup.  This medium-teed 3-wood cut over the left peak […]



Highland Links — Hole #10: Par 4

By • Updated: Mar 14th, 2014 • Category: Highland Links

With a great wind here, you can get close to the green if not on it — check out how this tee shot from the BACK box carried 426 yards into the hole!  But this one was even longer — 430 yards straight at it, to top the longest hole-out record books!  From the front […]

From the far right box, here’s an ace to a back pin. Here’s a nice ace from the middle box. VIDEO DEMO



Highland Links — Hole #12: Par 4

By • Updated: Aug 18th, 2014 • Category: Highland Links

Here’s a 5-wood ace from the front-left box.  And this 3-hybrid also got some crazy bounce and spin to find the hole. From the back-left box, this 3-wood found a center pin.  And this 3-wood got an amazing bounce back out of the bunker to find the cup! From the front-right box, check out this […]



Highland Links — Hole #13: Par 5

Muscle up however you can to carry the second fairway so that you can reach this green in two — sometimes it’s a high-teed driver straight ahead, and other times you’ll rotate right and play a C3 driver to get out there, trying to avoid the sand and rough.  Here’s an example hole-out. VIDEO DEMO



Highland Links — Hole #14: Par 4

By • Updated: Oct 17th, 2016 • Category: Highland Links

With a big wind here, you may be able to shatter your long drive record by playing a high-teed C3 shot — this one almost made the green!  This one did carry the green and almost found the hole — huge! And while the Turbo A1 is still in existence, here’s a 500-yard drive that […]



Highland Links — Hole #15: Par 4

By • Updated: Oct 6th, 2013 • Category: Highland Links

You can play to either fairway here depending on the wind and what gives you the best approach shot. The left fairway is the safest since you can blast away with no sand trouble.  Here’s a 9-wood dunk!  This shot caught the front rough but shot forward into the cup! From the right fairway, this […]



Highland Links — Hole #16: Par 3

By • Updated: Nov 26th, 2013 • Category: Highland Links

This hole can be brutal with a headwind or a tough pin placement.  Rock is long, meaning you’ll bounce back short. From the center box, this 6-iron played a small cut into a headwind and sucked back into a front pin.  This 8-iron floated over to a left pin.  And this 9-iron banked off the […]



Highland Links — Hole #17: Par 5

By • Updated: Oct 20th, 2013 • Category: Highland Links

In some cases you can blast a huge drive all the way past the sand to leave a short approach shot — here’s a great DE hole-out with roll through the rough. This drive settled in the fairway just past the water and found the cup from there. This drive laid up back in the […]

Here’s a 3-wood that settled into a back pin.  And this 5-wood used the hill nicely to bounce into a front pin. This 3-wood played a left-to-right curve to settle into a back pin! VIDEO DEMO
