Certain holes on Olympic, like #1 with a right to left wind, and #4 always, I feel like you have to hit a shot directly through a tree to get it in the fairway. Every now and then that tree will knock the ball straight down. Often on number 1 I just hit a punch drive and let it roll with the slope leaving 3 wd. Do you just hit it and hope on those holes in Olympic?
Full backspin on 1 & 4 always....
On #1 ( right / left wind...aim at the hole in the tree, a branch hangs down in the middle... aim @ that mostly and it will miss left and leave a 3 / 4 iron in....exaggerated aim will be needed in high wind.
( with a 16/18 10 pm wind I aim right edge OF the whole hole )
Full backspin will always clear #4 tree from black tees..whatever wind dir
#5 can be problematic..no backspin and 93% drive will see you right.
( there is a way to rip a R/L drive but hard to explain where to aim here..)
And on #10..I always go with a 3w..easy 150 y in
