How to shoot -30 on Golden Tee

By Golden Tee Fan • Dec 28th, 2008 • Category: Features, Improvement, Miscellaneous

This question is pretty common among people who are just picking up the game. If you’re a casual player, you might average somewhere around -10 and think you’re pretty decent, but then you see that someone somewhere somehow shot -30 on this very course, leaving you completely baffled! How is this possible? […]

By Golden Tee Fan • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Bonnie Moor

Here’s what the players are saying early on about Golden Tee’s new 2009 course Bonnie Moor!
AMJ — GT Par is -30.
Jeff S — Front has a lot of scoring opportunities. A lot of eagle opportunities on the front, watch out for the tall grass!!! Placement with a 3W or 4W is key sometimes just to […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #1: Par 4

By Golden Tee Fan • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Bonnie Moor

We open up with a long par 4, but it’s straight and flat with a huge green — you should have no problem putting your approach shot close for birdie.



Bonnie Moor — Hole #2: Par 4

By Golden Tee Fan • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This par 4 is drivable more times than not, but you can also be pinned up against the wall on the right, or you can be on the far back left of the tee box.  If you’re in one of these spots, you most likely cannot drive the green, so leave yourself a nice approach […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #3: Par 3

By Golden Tee Fan • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This par 3 is a bit tricky because it’s a long way downhill!  And you know by now that the wind is going to affect your shot at least twice as much on the way down.  You almost certainly do not want backspin here unless it’s a front pin with wind at your back, because […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #4: Par 5

By Golden Tee Fan • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Bonnie Moor

The tee shot here is all about distance control, and you’ll almost always be using a 3-wood.  Aim for the little gap between the right-most bunkers — you’ll want to stick your tee shot just over the tall grass and just short of the bunker.  The key is to carry the tall grass but use […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #5: Par 5

By Golden Tee Fan • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Bonnie Moor

Depending on the wind and tee box, you’ll be doing one of three things off the tee.  Most often, I like to rotate to the right 2 or 3 times and play a big C3 with roll out to the second fairway.  This way, you’re taking advantage of the slope and direction of the fairway.  […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #6: Par 4

By Golden Tee Fan • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This par 4 is not tough to drive the green if you get the distance right.  You’ll have an offset look at the green, and it’s a long way downhill again, so you’ll have to pull back at the correct angle (if necessary to pull back) to put you on the green close to the […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #7: Par 3

By Golden Tee Fan • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This par 3 can sometimes set up really tough if the pin is in the front.  Why?  Because both tall grass and bunkers guard the front of the green, so it’ll be really difficult to get the ball close to the front of the green!  Use as much loft as you can here, and err […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #8: Par 5

By Golden Tee Fan • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Bonnie Moor

Here’s another hole where the tee shot is crucial, and it can be really easy to really tough depending on your tee box placement.  You have to get the ball at least to the middle of the neck of the fairway to have a shot at the green in two, and being in the fairway […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #9: Par 4

By Golden Tee Fan • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This par 4 is usually really tough to eagle.  If you’re tucked off to the right and close to the hill, don’t worry about trying to drive the green — you’ll just end up in the water.  Lay out in the fairway and take your shot at eagle.
From anywhere else, you’ll have somewhere from a […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #10: Par 4

By Golden Tee Fan • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Bonnie Moor

Nothing fancy here — just pick a fat part in the fairway and tee off with backspin to hold this spot.  Don’t go too far or the tall grass will inhibit your approach.  The key is just to have a safe tee shot, because the approach is not too tough from anywhere — just don’t […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #11: Par 4

By Golden Tee Fan • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This par 4 will set you up anywhere along a very wide tee box and have you shoot into 1 of 2 different greens.  The difficulty depends on how much you have to hook around the hill on the way to the green.  If you’re in the middle of the tee box, you’ll have to […]



Bonnie Moor — Hole #12: Par 5

By Golden Tee Fan • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: Bonnie Moor

This hole has a big-time shortcut you should be using every time.  Rotate left of the green and aim directly at the big hill on the left — you’re going to want to put your drive at the top of this hill either with a 3-wood or driver with roll.  Approaching the green from here […]
