After polling several of the experts, there are three different ways people choose to set up for Golden Tee Live 2008 Eagle Crest.
The most popular choice is to play with the low-loft (FTX) clubs and the orange balls. Another option that several people prefer is to play with the old hybrids (”old birds”) and […]

Let’s get started! This one is straight-forward. Drive it straight, bring your approach in, and putt for birdie.

Play from a B.5 - 2.5 to C3 drive depending on the wind. Curve it around that corner and keep it in the fairway.
From the front box, use backspin so you don’t go too far and have a tree in your way.
From the back box, use topspin so you stay on the […]

Huge green, so don’t be short! Use backspin with a front pin, or use no spin, land and roll up with a back pin.

Several options here, but option one is by far the consensus way to attack this hole for eagle.
One – Hit a C3 6-iron with topspin off the tee. Up ahead, just in the rough to the left, are two shorter trees. The one on the right is further away and your ball will clear it. […]

From the front tees, you can play a huge C3 driver with topspin to roll onto the green.
From the middle box, you can sometimes play the same shot and bounce on.
From the back, you can’t get there, so lay up and bring an approach in for a birdie putt.

Another huge green. Use backspin with a front pin, and use topspin or no roll to get to a back pin.

Not drivable, so don’t try it.
From the front tees, the safe play is to hit a C3 5-iron with backspin to cut the corner a bit. Rather, you can rotate left 3 times, hit a driver with topspin through a gap in the trees, and end up in the fairway or rough just past […]

Drivable from all 3 tee boxes. You will bounce up onto the green (sometimes through the sand) and stick it for an eagle putt!
From the front box, hit a B.5 - 2.5 to C3 3-wood with backspin, depending on the wind.
From the back-right box, hit the same angled shot with a backspin driver.
From the […]

From the front tees, hit a soft C3 driver or full 3-wood with backspin to end up on the green or just off it. Sometimes your ball will skip across the water here on its way to the green! Pay close attention to where the pin is here because if it’s all the […]

Blast an A1 drive with topspin down the fairway – the amount of hook you play depends on the wind. Make sure you stay left and get far enough so the trees on the right don’t get in your way! Watch out for the sideways “V” shaped sidewalk. That’s an unplayable lie.
Alternatively, you […]

Hit far down the fairway, try to at least get parallel to the end of the sand on the left. Usually a 2-iron to 3-wood 2nd shot.

Don’t be short! If the pin is in front, aim for the end of the green and backspin the ball down the hill.

You have to get across the road to be able to make this in 2. Most of the time you can just plow a straight driver. Sometimes you may have to click left once and hit a big A1 to get there. If you’re in the fairway, or first cut, you’ll have a 5-wood to […]

Always drivable with anywhere from a 3-iron to a 3-wood.
From the middle and back tee boxes, a 4-wood and a 5-wood will both clear the trees that overhang the right side.
From the front boxes, you’ll need to hit a B1 shot around the trees.
If you are close enough to hit an iron, in order to […]

Huge green, but there’s a big upward slope, so make sure to stick this one close to the hole! Ideally you want to leave a short, uphill putt, but if that happens, you weren’t aggressive enough! Downhill putts can lip out, and side-sloping putts are obviously much tougher here. With a front […]

This is a long hole that’s always difficult to reach in 2. The key is keeping your drive in the fairway to give you a chance! Lots of tee shots end up in the right rough, so keep it left and on the fairway!
From the front left tee box, you can get to […]

This is a really tough par 4 with several options. Very rarely will this hole set up to drive the green with a huge C3 and a great wind. Maybe 5% set up that way, plus you’ll need an extremely lucky turbo bounce up and out of the sand guarding the green. You’re better […]

This one is always drivable. You will need an A1-C3 3-iron-Driver with backspin depending on the tee box and wind.
From the close middle set, a nice thumb driver backspin will do the trick.
From the back middle box, hit a hard driver.
From the left boxes, depending on wind and trees in front of you, you […]

Thanks to Design Master Randy Christopher for supplying us with all the fun facts below!

Hole #1 There are 2 porta-potties to the left of the green in the woods.
Hit the out house and you’ll hear
1) “A fart, a burp and “Come Back Later””
2) “A fart, a burp and “Oh, bad tacos””
