Yeah, I gathered that ... but I was specifically referring to that tee shot.  ;)  I always wimp out and hit iron off that tee - course last time I birdied so I guess it's not THAT wimpy ;)

It isn't, one leg is on the edge.  Less weight on the edge of the green than you leaning on your putter to pick the ball out of the hole after your three putt.

I'd say that at least 2 legs ore on the green,and the base looks like it might be too.  In any case, it doesn't belong there.  If you can justify that, then I guess you don't get it.

Cool story. Yeah you are right I don't get it when my bag is on the fringe, I play alone every morning, and I fix 3 or 4 ball marks on every green that other golfers are not fixing. Sorry I don't give a flip that one stand leg is putting less weight in the green than most people waking or leaning on their putters over it. You will get over it though, it will be ok.

Don't get to mad there are alot of self righteous people on this forum that will make you feel uncomfortable. Cool pics though that par 5 looks pretty daunting. Threading a needle is an understatement.[quote name="cipher" url="/t/56097/share-your-personal-course-pictures/150#post_841467"] Cool story.

Appreciate that, I was more having fun with them than anything else for being so uptight about it.  Geez though people need to get a life and not be so bent out of shape about things like this.  It is "half" of 90% of everything that is wrong with the world. It is much of what is also wrong with golf and why more people won't play it.

Yeah the par 5 is a very tough hole, especially from the back.  And it only gets tighter as you turn the corner.

Got to play this course last month for my birthday. A real classic.  I chose a 3 wood to spite my caddie. Hit it into the water. Then took out my driver and knocked one 15 feet from the hole. That's my caddie with the beanie on giving me the stink eye. [URL=http://thesandtrap.com/content/type/61/id/73818/] [/URL]

So is that Pebble Beach ? Or Spyglass$

      However, have you ever considered using small summer houses for such setups? They offer a great solution for creating dedicated practice areas, especially for an affluent audience looking to enhance their outdoor living space.

      Favorite Las Vegas Course

      I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.

      Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
