Hancock golf course #5

[overmaars]

By defnition a "cut" shot has a "fade" ball flight. However since the objective being "cutting" around an object, motion not flight defines the actual shot as a "cut", or to "cut around an obstruction", thus a right to left cut shot, or '"cut draw" is an actual shot selection.

another possible theory is that I am full of ****.

On #5 I like to hit a punch shot with a 3 wood, but I try to hit it really high. This enables me to get a lot of top spin on the ball but it also has a lot of bite on it to keep it in the fairway.

If you hit it too close to the putting green there will be a little kid who will steal your ball and you'll have to pay fifty cents to get it back.

an even better question about Hancock...How do you get the old guy at the pro-shop to stop giving you Susan B. Anthony's?

 

[Phil Conners]

We always told Beasley (man in the clubhouse) that we played for Westlake H.S. and he let us play for $1.75. We were 22 and always had a cooler of beer on the course...don't know how he didn't catch on.

"it's Steve Darby who runs the clubhouse at Hancock"

fifty something white guy that graduated from austin reagan in '69?

Steve Darby is caucasion and is rarely seen. Beasley is the older african american gentleman who is almost always there during the week.
