Trung was looking at Tezza line up his tee-shot ;)

bloody tough hole when the wind was blowing straight into your face :shock: 208 meters from the back markers ... 17th hole at Pacific Harbour.

:oops: Check out the location of thethe nearest bunker to the tee?

Easy 4 from there :twisted:

heh I made a 4 from there too trung - after stating 'what the hell is the point in that bunker there?'

even after hitting in there, I still consider it a rediculous bunker

It's a look of anxiety and confusion on Trung's face :p

Explain 'ridiculous' (the bunker, not your speeling ;)). Sounds like you got burnt this time. Surely all designers want players walking off some golf holes shaking their head.

it's about 20 metres in front of the tee and about 2 metres in frot of the ladies tee. It only catches a cold top, not really a 'design feature' more like "**** we have some spare sand, lets dump it here"

seems like a bit of "bunker overkill" to me :roll:

carry bunkers to a bailout fairway on a Par 3 are silly. Then again two seven markers failed to carry them ;)

...omg thats alot of bunkers for one bloody hole...**** sakes...

Babies.

At least the pin was on the left for you. Can you imagine playing the hole with it cut right?

Jarro
5th April 2006, 07:47 PM
at over 200 meters Fishy, does it really matter where the bloody pin is cut :roll: :lol:

Jarro

did you make your par ?

connico
5th April 2006, 08:36 PM
Well if its just over 200m's i'd get there with a 7w or id give it a decent try!

Bit over that i would give a 5 wood. :)

$hit!! there is more sand on that hole than Bondi :shock:

Moe Norman
5th April 2006, 10:27 PM
not to mention it's an elevated green into the breeze today. I'd suggest the prevailing wind would be from the left though.

Less Pommy tourists though i hope!

did you make your par ?
nope... 3-putted for bogey.

(had 3 x 3-jags yesterday. There were some big greens with serious contouring, so i don't feel too bad about it. but still it's a shame to hit a solid approach and walk off with bogey...)

Connico - you're absolutely dreaming if you think you could get there with a 7 wood. :smt002

Moe Norman

BV - it was the first time in about 6 months I didn't have any 3 jabs so I'd like you to feel bad please, because you should!

The 2nd at Windsor is 180, should be enough for there !!!!

Why???

Stick with that 7 wood idea then and when you play it, you'll enjoy the challenge of the 30 metre pitch shot from in front of the bunkers short of the green then.:smt002

OR...

Take the club you really need, even if that means driver! I had no problems hitting a 3 wood when everyone else in my groups hitting irons. Don't let your ego get in the way of good scoring.

yesterday, approx. 210-215 into 1-2 club wind. So maybe 225-230.

connico
6th April 2006, 11:16 AM

I have played with both BrisVegas & Connico, I would guess Vegas is about 20 to 30m longer off the tee than Connico. 7 wood for Connico would be a good layup to be short of the bunkers.

Oh my goodness....I cant believe you hit it in there...Ross didn't even think the ladies would go in there. The worst part was that I'd said only 10 seconds earlier how silly they were there and as if anyone would ever hit it in there!

Humble pie tastes like sh!t.

What a great looking hole. It would make your sphincter tighten on a windy day, I reckon. Gotta love a golf hole that can do that.
