Hello folks!
I’ve finished the work I wanted done for this week. In fact, I’ll be releasing the new demo in a couple of minutes!
Now, the goal of this post is to show you how to play your awesomely create hole.
For that, I created this demo hole: Double Trouble
Here’s an overview of what the hole looks like:
The two little bodies of water in the middle add to the difficulty. The sand trap surrounding it is more for psychological terror, as they’re actually quite flat. Opposite of the fairway, which is angled all over the place, specially aimed to make you fall on the water. So to start off the drive, I aimed my shot in this direction:
My intention was to bypass the slope with speed and make it safely to the end of the fairway. But it actually happened much better! The ball bounced majestically off of the fairway, and ended up really near the green, albeit in a bunker:
From there, though, it was a short chip in to get on the green and be on a good position. This course was a par 4. This shot would put me at 2 strokes, with a potentially straightforward putt to help me to an Birdie. Which is what I did, since my chip in landed around here:
Extremely close. Like, way too close. The kind of close shot I’ve missed before because I forgot to account for slopes and stuff! This time around, I sank it like a champ!
All of this was thanks to a very lucky drive! I was not expecting it to bounce the way it did, but I was very pleased for it!
Well that’s that! Stay tuned for the new demo for Boss Golf!
