Grand Canyon — Hole #9: Par 4
By Golden Tee Fan • Category: Grand Canyon •
From almost every setup, a high-teed 9-wood can go straight at the green if you’ve got the distance. Here’s a perfect example of where you’d play this shot to a back pin. This one actually comes at it from the left — what a crazy shot! And this one involves a bank, which is even crazier — wow. Here’s another perfect bank at the end!
If you’re towards the right side of the box, a high-teed 7-wood can go right at the green, but if you’re towards the left, a high-teed 7-wood can curve safely around the mountain. And here’s a great medium-teed B3 7-wood backspun into the cup!
If you need a longer shot, you can curve a high-teed 5-wood around too — here is a high-teed 5-wood around the corner for a dunk! If you need backspin, you’re still fine if you play a big enough hook. There’s even a backstop rock if you need to get lucky! This one also came in hot off the backstop. And why not make the route even more scenic — crazy.
The key is to miss left if you miss at all — you can even hug the mountain on the way around, but don’t miss right!
With the stiff penalty for a miss, you may want to lay up out right sometimes — here’s a hole-out from the fairway. And this shot is not recommended, but what an entertaining video it made!
