    LOL just tried that.  The 1 or 2 times I've done it, it's been in a ranked round and I hit the tree going as conservative as possible.  It figures if you go more aggressive you can go right through the tree!

    LOL, The SLDR should do it being 9 degree...full b/s and aim at the ellipse shaped hole in the middle of the trees, it goes through with the Nike driver every time...even if you miss hit late/early...I hit the tree(that 1 f'n branch) more trying to cut the corner getting close to the tree unless it is into a headwind.

     

    same thing on #10 but with a 3wd, go through the hole...

     

    Yea well tee shots are not something I've tried too much in practice with to see which trees are fake  Yesterday I messed with Merion #10 and lost a few balls trying to figure that one out though. lol

    The trees should all be solid but of course they're not.

    at Bethp. #2, there is a way throught the trees

    That's the ONLY shot at BP #2. :-) Found it about a year ago. But, thank you. I LOVE free stuff :-)

    Or just go through that hole in the trees on the right w/ f/bs and be a 100 yds closer on Oly #1...

    You're right FD. That is normally how I play Oly #1 (straight through-or over-whichever it really is- those trees. I was just using that decent right to left wind to illustrate the shot. I wouldn't try in normal play. Miss that last line late, and you're toast :-)

    NP, I figured you knew, I was just trying to point out to lockndam that on almost everyone of those holes you could use that crazy shot, there is usually a hole in the trees somewhere ...lol

    although as it was pointed out, I forget it doesn't work from some tees with some of the lower level drivers.

    Yeah, I can think of about a half dozen holes I shot shape on.  Really saves you some yardage.
