Hello all. I'm about to be 57 yrs old, started playing when I was 16, and have quit and restarted the game more times than I can count. I had started playing a weekly round with a friend, and finally made the jump to Senior A shafted Tour Edge clubs. Instantly gained 10 yds with an easier swing (why didn't I make that jump sooner???). Glad to be a part of the group. Cheers all, -

I think I like this hole. It is a clear "Risk-Reward" choice. Since most of the shots in your cone cleared the bunkers I would say they are a minor risk and not a big issue. Playing the aggressive line may give you 70ish yards in from what looks to be playable rough while conservative play is 120ish from fairway. I know you said 70 vs 120 is minor for you but how does the approach angle in impact your results? I figure both strategies are playing for Birdie since holing out from either is mostly luck. Looking at your proximity hole I think it says @ 50 feet when hitting from the fairway from 100-150 and 40 feet if hitting 50-100 from the rough. Neither of those is an easy birdie putt. I like the approach angle from the rough between the bunkers & the adjacent tees over the angle from @ 120 in the fairway but I really do not like the idea of hitting onto the adjacent tee boxes and that may impact my confidence with making the shot. Also, too far left may be a worse approach angle then from the fairway short of the bunkers. For me this may come down to how confident do I feel when I reach that tee box. If I am stroking it well off the tee leading up to the hole I would try for over the bunkers and the better angle in but if I am struggling that day I would likely opt for the fairway to take more bad stuff out of play. -
