Beauty hole design 👏👏
Driver, iron?
not gonna give any more details on the hole?
poorly?
[removed]
Try to hit it where I want it to go and hope for the best
Overswing and pull it dead left over that bunker into the trees OR try to hit it easy and fade it over that waterfall
Gorgeous! On the approach shot, it has to be at least 1-2 club lengths with that elevation. Aiming for right center of green and hope to hit it pure
I don’t know, I can’t even see the pin. Probably driver off the tee straight into that ravine.
What are we even looking at? Ai? Rendered picture?
How far is it? Looks like combination of a par 3 and par 4. Are we standing at the tee box?
I am slicing it off of those rocks and into the creek
Without knowing distances or anything, my honest approach would be to try to hit a 6 iron or something over that bunker so there is less hazard and elevation involved in my approach shot.
I’m not, because I’m not setting foot on the subcontinent.
Aim at the bunker and let my natural fade place in the middle of the fairway 😎
On a SIM, cuz it’s unlikely I’m ever going to play golf in that region.
Like Gary I’m gonna cheat by improving my lie and then I’m gonna go on and on about how I’m a more accomplished golfer than Jack and Arnie.
Bringing a tent and living there
I like to mix it up.. tee up the putter.. 6 iron… putting with my driver
Why would anyone not hit it at the big open flat spot?
Hanging a li’l fade drive over the left bunker. Can we call that bunker style a ‘reese’s wrapper’?
Driver, wedge.
Hit it on to the center of the green….duh
Pretty poorly, I’d wager
Probably try to sink my drive in the hole.
Try and hit the ball forward until it eventually goes into the hole

Here’s what I found on Google Maps. At least an aerial view without yardage. I couldn’t open the scorecard on my phone because it was being weird and wouldn’t show anything.
That being said I keep reading it as DILF so that’s all I can think about
Same way I play all others. Close eyes and swing.
Dilf
Just a side note – he’s not my favorite person, but Player designed courses are some of the most fun/creative out there.
This looks cool – Players course in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin is my favorite of his
This is the most beautiful hole I’ve ever seen. Wow.
beautiful looking hole, but i don’t trust my gastrointestinal system enough to travel there. probably aim driver at the bunker and play a cut.
What is with player and the wacky bunkers?
I played a course in Japan called Manna, designed by player. Wackiest bunker walls. Actually had a shot or two in my group that was too dangerous to play so we allowed free drop.
Slowly and taking in every moment of it.
Beautiful hole. Thought the title said Indiana at first and was very confused.
Damn, I’d just be sad that I didn’t have an easel and my paint! What a gorgeous scene.
I have played this hole. You layup with a 7 iron and then hit another 8/7 iron. The tough part is the waterfall behind the green. You basically have to land the ball soft on the green and can’t be long.
Topping it right into the creek!
