    MBaggese:
    Only took me two years to figure that hole out;)

    That's much better than myself and #18 at Cabo. Just 4-putted that P.O.S. again. Quite sure I've got more 4-putts there than 1,2 and 3-putts combined. I dread that hole, ruins my round every time.

    Cabo 18 is another tough one...I think I have a replay saved from a hole out on it...but try to stay left of the flag and a bit high with back spin, it'll roll towards the hole...closest birdie op that way, if you trust your down hill putting;)

    Otherwise, shoot at the flag, and wait for the 18-20 foot uphill putt to come:)

     

    Long or long and right can be a kiss of death!

    I cut out a bright red stencils w/ danger signs on it for 18, 11, 9 holes at RSG...I stick it to my screen and pretend that certain parts of the green doesn't exist when I play them....

     

    Now that is and isn't a joke because I actually used an index card to cover certain areas of greens until I had the visual in my head to avoid those areas at all cost....on 15 at BPB I use the theory "even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in awhile", I power up and close my eyes, usually end up better than I would looking!

    If you're happy with a par there then aim just short of the front edge and flop close.

    I like to try to drive on the left side of the fairway. That way the distance of the approach shot is not as critical, just be sure your approach goes toward the hole or a little right of the hole.

    I still usually hit late cause no way do I want to hit early, and if I get the distance right then I have a relatively easy 10-16ft birdie putt.

    My only 400 yard drive came on this hole, landed on the backside of left bunker and ran up to 23 yards away.

    Have never seen so many little bounces.

    Nice one John!

    Alas, it landed at the front of that bunker and gained speed - cam 3 shows it in a close-up.
