Just aim for the red bricks just before the little stream...
Drive 260m+, bounce on the red brick, one bounce on green and roll into cup. Easy!!!
Damn... I am dreaming again. Time to sleep.

this hole usually plays into headwind from the bay so will need slightly further distance to clear. on the other hand, hole 2 will usually be play with tailwind.

Why not just aim left side if bunkers? Plenty of room there No need to argue lah...
That's what I did ... Aim left of the bunkers, and I can manage 2 On or 3 sometime, depending on my driver form ... If I tee off at white, I am sure I can do 2 On with little problem ...

Think she was using a 3W, but any club that can bounce on rock/stone before the green and hit pin should do the job.

Even from the black, it is only 350m lah ... hit a 200m drive ... just 140m to carry the water ... of course if there is a strong headwind (which is usual) then completely different story

Tee off from the club house like what Zhenxua did the last time. He still manage to clear those bunker even from club house.

Curious, why would you want to carry the bunkers? You can play a bit left onto the open area and still attack the pin from there. Risk vs reward here and I don't think the risk justifies the reward.

My kaki has tendency to pull his shots, so he likes to aim more right. And on the MBGC hole 1, he aims over the bunkers, if he carries them or pulls it, he will still be safe.
Just that we have different views on the carry distance.
