Tour 8 Shootout Guide

I provide the content for free, however, many people ask if they can pay me for the guides. It is
entirely up to you as I don’t request anything, however, if you do wish to contribute you can send any
donation to https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/focetbuk. I will keep any kind donations to give to my
children when they are older
 Throughout this guide you will see the TW=Tailwind HW=Headwind

Pyro Kings symbol in the middle of the XW=Crosswind LS=Left Spin

wind arrow. If you click on that symbol it RS= Right Spin TS=Top Spin

will take you to a playlist of replays of that BS=Back Spin NMT=No Move Target

Pyro Kings is a relaxed friendly clan that is

usually in Master 3 or C100. We have a
second clan too which is even more relaxed
where points do not matter as much, however
both clans have the same support
mechanisms and chat groups including hole
chats. If you are interested in joining the
clan, please contact Damien GC or me (Focet
Buk) through FB or Messenger.

V3 T10 Beta: Third draft

Pull angles. Shot power and adjusting to higher or lower points
Pull angles
This isn't always pointed out in the guide, but when there is a XW with TW, we will usually favour a pull
angle that takes us more towards the tee. Conversely, if there is a XW with HW we’ll use a pull angle that
takes us away from the tee. On some holes this does not matter, however, on others, where we need to be
precise with the landing spot, e.g. Milano 3, this can be critical. If you find yourself missing the landing spot
this will usually be the reason. I’ve linked an example… hit the Pyro Kings image to take you there. You will
see my pull angle is what is called 12:01, which means as I adjust I am moving closer to the tee, meaning
any additional TW push I encounter should be compensated for. I then shouldn't miss the rough.

Shot power and adjusting to higher or lower points .

Another issue you may face is adjusting to a higher point or lower point. Sometimes we
have taken this into account in the shots we have set up. However, others we can't
because it depends on the strength of the wind as to whether you'll end up at a higher
or lower point. In the example given, we actually end up at a higher point. Due to the
mechanics of the game, this means that the ball will travel further than you intended.
Therefore, on that shot I underpowered it slightly too. The opposite happens when we
adjust to a lower point. I.e. the ball travels a shorter distance, so to compensate we
would either overpower slightly or push up slightly before we take our shot. If you find
you are missing shots, watch my replays back to see if I am using a pull angle and/or
over or underpowering slightly.
