So what’s the best set of clubs to use when playing Golden Tee 2009’s Sunny Wood?  Well, I got feedback from 25 pros on their choices, and here’s what I found! The most votes went to the old hybrids that were offered in 2005 Golden Tee.  This set has always been a favorite among pros […]


Early Reviews for Golden Tee 2009’s Sunny Wood

By • Updated: Nov 13th, 2011 • Category: Sunny Wood

Here’s what the players are saying early on about Golden Tee’s new 2009 course Sunny Wood! AMJ — GT Par is -27. Jeff S — Didn’t shoot too well here either. There are some shortcuts. If you hit right….which I…..did not. AMJ — First round was with the new woods and the second round was […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #1: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 1st, 2015 • Category: Sunny Wood

You can always cut the corner through the sand and rough with a nice big C3 with roll, but you also don’t want to mess that up and be shooting out of tougher terrain on the first hole!  If you get a nice pin placement and are within 100 yards or so, you might be […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #2: Par 3

By • Updated: Feb 18th, 2012 • Category: Sunny Wood

You can be on any of 3 tee boxes here and will have some sand to negotiate, but it’s not bad.  Err towards the middle of the green if you’re in between clubs! EXAMPLE HOLE-OUT


Sunny Wood — Hole #3: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 18th, 2012 • Category: Sunny Wood

There are two ways to attack this hole, depending on where you’re at on the tee box and your level of comfort with each! If you’re on the right, your best shot is usually a C3 with backspin around the tree into the green.  It can also be a B3 shot if you’re far enough […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #4: Par 5

By • Updated: Feb 18th, 2012 • Category: Sunny Wood

I always play my drive to the middle-left side of the fairway, about even with the middle of the pond on the left.  Even if you’re in the middle of the fairway, you’ll be fine, so just don’t get too aggressive with that water off the tee!  From this area, you’ll have anything from a […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #5: Par 3

By • Updated: Feb 1st, 2015 • Category: Sunny Wood

Here’s a slightly more challenging par 3 that may force you to deal with a hill on an elevated green.  You can be on any of 4 tee boxes, so you’ll get lots of looks here.  Remember to account for that slight rise in elevation, and err towards the middle of the green if the […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #6: Par 5

By • Updated: Feb 1st, 2015 • Category: Sunny Wood

Here’s a cleverly-designed hole that can get you in trouble if you’re not careful!  You’ll notice that the second fairway is elevated and guarded by a cliff.  If you blindly select your driver and hit an A1 towards the second fairway, the cliff might catch your ball and shoot it into the water!  Instead, select […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #7: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 1st, 2015 • Category: Sunny Wood

You’ll be using a vast array of clubs on this hole depending on your tee box placement and the wind!  This green is always drivable, and you’ll usually use backspin to hold the green. The biggest danger here is the water if you go long, and it is pretty easy to miss long here too!  […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #8: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 1st, 2015 • Category: Sunny Wood

  Your first decision here will be whether or not you can clear the water, creating a shortcut to the green!  Keep in mind that a really sharp cutting shot will skip off the water, so you can use that to your advantage if needed. If you have doubts about cutting the corner, then you […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #9: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 1st, 2015 • Category: Sunny Wood

Whether you like it or not, you’re going to have to do some math here.  Take your distance to the hole and subtract 240 from it — that’s where you want your drive to end up.  So let’s say it’s 410 to the hole.  You want to hit your drive 170 yards and stick it […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #10: Par 3

By • Updated: Feb 18th, 2012 • Category: Sunny Wood

I’m not sure, but it looks like this hole has 1 tee box and 6 possible greens into which to shoot!  Almost all of these greens have water and sand surrounding them, so it makes for a tough little par 3!  Be careful with your low-lofted club here — you don’t want to end up […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #12: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 18th, 2012 • Category: Sunny Wood

From the back right tees, there’s a nice shortcut over the lake if you play a C3 shot!  It’s not always there and is tricky — you have to make sure you miss the tree right in front of you, and you have to make sure you’ve got enough power to clear the lake and […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #13: Par 5

By • Updated: Feb 18th, 2012 • Category: Sunny Wood

This par 5 offers multiple shortcut options!  If you’re back and left, you’ll notice a landing area just over the lake that’s about 200 yards from the hole.  The problem is that you won’t be able to take dead aim at this spot.  Instead, you’ll have to hit an A1 around some trees and over […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #14: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 18th, 2012 • Category: Sunny Wood

This hole is really tough.  You can rarely clear the lake to the fairway on the other side — you need a great wind and a big A1 with roll, and probably a skip, to pull it off. Instead, you’re probably going to be laying up in the fairway right in front of the sand.  […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #16: Par 3

By • Updated: Feb 18th, 2012 • Category: Sunny Wood

Think it’s got to get easier?  Think again!  Here’s a really tough par 3 that can burn you in a bunch of ways.  Your attack plan depends on the wind, but you’ll always be shooting into a green that slopes 10 degrees towards the water in back.  If the wind is in your face, it’s […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #17: Par 5

By • Updated: Feb 18th, 2012 • Category: Sunny Wood

There are three ways to get there in two.  First is the traditional route, following the fairway on around.  If you’re got a nice wind helping you out (blowing to the right), this may be your best chance of landing the green in two.  Get your drive out there as far as you can, and […]


Sunny Wood — Hole #18: Par 4

By • Updated: Feb 18th, 2012 • Category: Sunny Wood

Sick of these island greens yet?  Don’t worry — this is the last one!  Sunny Wood finishes with a drivable par 4, but if you miss the green, par will be tough to achieve. As with most of the drivable par 4s, you’ll have an offset look, so you’ll have to make sure you pull […]
