hey everybody welcome we are at camp hideaway in lynchburg virginia i'm gonna run through a practice round try to give some mental tips some shot selections some hole breakdowns and just what i go through in a practice round and share it with you so let's go all right this is hole one 349 feet halfway it's just a straight shot and then it bends to the right there's two ways to attack this hole i believe one is with the distance driver kind of low get the skip to finish to the right or you can go with a slow turning mid-range or fairway driver i like the aggressive high-speed driver just to get over to the right and kind of try to park it more so than get a putt with the mid-range so let's go with the high-speed driver as i was walking down the fairway i noticed as i got closer to the green it got heavily guarded with trees you can see behind me there's quite a few around the basket but the fairway continues straight so i want to if i was in a tournament setting here focus more on getting the distance to the basket rather than trying to cut it in tight so i think if this was a tournament setting i would might lean more towards a mid-range or a fairway and just play the straight shot rather than diving into the woods trying to park the hole that would be my breakdown of this hole if i was at a tournament we're on hold two it's 246 feet dead straight another tightly wooded hole this one actually has ob just outside the circle long of the basket so the goal here would be keep it short but still try to put it in the circle and it's on a little bit of a hill so that might affect putting a little bit but it also helps on the drive because i can slide it up into that hill and get potentially closer without testing that ob behind the basket so i think i'll be going with a putter here but i can also bump up to a mid-range if i feel like that will give me some better accuracy but right now we're going with the putter so with the hole being only 246 feet i think i would...
