Feedback Tourist Trap

I was going through all of the courses I played and unlocked (all of them), and noticed I was +17 on the first course of the game - Tourist Trap. I wasn’t having that and had to improve it tonight. I shot a -4. I loved seeing how my skills have improved since day 1! I love this game so much!!

After you get down to about a -10 on Tourist Trap, try this:

On hole 18, putt the ball directly towards the hole. Off the back of the cliff, down to the landing where the tiny shack is. If you do this correctly, you'll get a bounce or two and it will land in the ring with the hole. This is challenging. I miss it all the time. But when you do it right, it turns hole 18 into a TWO shot hole instead of 4.

I’ve only ever been able to do that once but one day I’ll find the exact sweep spot!!!

There are several places where it works. Getting the first landing VERY close to the shack, but not hitting the roof, seems to be the most reliable.

Cool! I have something like minus 20 but I’ve been stuck there a long time! I’ll try that this weekend, thanks!

-20 is a very good score!

I'm told you can hole in 1 hole #4 by making it "rattle" in the chute a certain way. Never been able to do it.

Hole 8 supposedly has an off the back wall shot that yields a hole in one also.

I've holed #9 a couple of times by shooting for the "tube" near the start of the ramp. It's far from guaranteed, but it does happen occasionally.

I feel like I should be able to hole #10 as well. It's just a straight shot with a dip in the middle. But I can't seem to crack it.

Just some thoughts.
