I'm wanting to know if anyone on this forum has played Cog Hill's Dubsdread and advice/strategy on how to attack the course? Im playing this weekend as part of a birthday package and have been practicing non-stop for the last several days. I just wanted to know if anyone had any suggestions before this weekend comes around...

I played it last year. Played off the BMW setup and got slaughtered. Shot an 89. I would say you really need to drive it straight as the timber is very penal. The greens were not too bad but make sure you practice your sand game if you are not striking the ball well. Have Fun!!

I played it for the first time last year and was pretty nervous too. Don't be, it's actually a pretty straightforward course. The only advice I have is take a GPS if you can.
In the bag:
Driver: Tour Burner 9.5
3-W: Rapture V2 16
Hybrid: 2009 Rescue 19
Irons: S9 (4 iron), i15 (5-PW)Wedge: S9 55*, CG14 60*Putter: ItsyBitsyBalls: ProV1x

I've played it a handful of times. Haven't played the new design but the best I've ever shot on that course from the back was 75. The weird thing about that course is that it's very tough but very fair. A few holes are tight but other than that the fairways are generous, the greens are receptive, and the sand is wonderful. Just make sure you play the proper tees, don't be stupid and play the tips (7600 yards) or you won't have fun. Still wish they hadn't changed 16, that approach was one of the best in all of golf.

Driver: R11s 9 with a Fubuki Tour 63 X-Stiff
Fairway Wood: R11s 15.5 with Miyazaki Kusala Black 83 X-Stiff

Hybrid: taylormade.gif 4 with Fubuki 515 X-Stiff
Irons: titleist.gif Forged 660 3-PW with Dynamic Gold X-100

Wedges: callaway.gif CC Jaws 52 and 58 Degree

      Day 34 (14 Dec 25) - Got outside for a few moments to work on bump and runs with the 4h (again using the exaggerated weight shift reminder of the left (lead) heel). Finding that it helps keep the downswing arc extended.

      You can try it with some lead tape first to see if it works for you.

      Driver and Fw3 Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By BananaBomber · Posted

      I am currently playing a Cobra Ltdx LS 9 degree driver and Cobra Ltdx LS FW3. Both with Tensei White stock stiff shafts and original weights of 12g (heel) and 3g (toe). My miss is usually a pull fade or sometimes a slice, swing is out to in. Driver swing speed about 112 mph. Grips are stock regular. Intended change: Driver: Switching to Tensei White x-flex one inch shorter which I suppose would be 44,5? Changing heel weight to 18g. Changing grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Change hosel setting to standard draw. FW3: Changing heel weight to 16g (apparently not available in FW weights, but supposed to be something called "internal weight" a club builder can add which fits between the weight and the screw?). Change grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Changing hosel setting to standard +1. The goal is to 1) get better grip since I tend so lose grip in warm and moist conditions with the current grips and 2) mitigate the misses to start more straight with less side spin. Also considering adding the Cobra Ltdx LS FW5 instead of my old Taylormade R9 and getting 14g heel and 6g toe weights with the same grip as the others and hosel setting standard +1.   All of the above is based on conversations with ChatGPT and, as everyone knows, it can come up with pretty much whatever but I spent a few hours asking about different perspectives etc and this was the recommendation. So, my question is basically, does it make any sense?   Thanks.
