In case of head wind or tail wind, it would be wise to take a conservative approach in playing the shot. You can use 4 to 6 bars of topspin with maximum sidespin to the left. Adjust the drive with approx 10% and you are good to go. In the second shot, keep the overadjustment at 20%.

White line:
For this shot, go for a power 3 ball and use at least 5 bars of topspin. Overadjust the shot at approx. 10% and you will be fine.
Namhae Cliffs Hole #2 (Par 3)
| Drive | 2nd Shot | |
|---|---|---|
| ↩️ Spin | 1 Back | |

| 🏐 Ball | Basic, Marlin (Rookie), Navigator, Kingmaker (Pro, Expert) | |
| 🏑 Club(s) | Hornet, Thorn (Rookie) Grizzly, Goliath, B52, (Pro, Expert) | |
For this shot, make sure to use a shot iron. For tailwind, use 1 bar of backspin. If it is a headwind, keep the spin adjustment at 0.5 bars topspin. Overjustment has to be kept at 15% and aim to the right.
Namhae Cliffs Hole #3 (Par 5)
| Drive | ||
|---|---|---|
| ↩️ Spin | 4-6 Top | |
| ⛳️ Overadjust | 20% | 10% |
| 🏐 Ball | Titan (Rookie), Titan, Kingmaker (Pro, Expert) | |
| 🏑 Club(s) | Big Dawg (Rookie); Sniper, Big Dawg, Cataclysm (Pro/Expert) | |
Black line:
Use 4 to 6 bars of topspin as suitable for the wind angle. Go for a driver with minimum 225 yards stat.
For the second shot, use a wood club with a minimum of 175 yards stat. Big Dawg or Cataclysm would be great. Aim for the rough on the left side of the green.
White line:
The drive for this shot will be the same as the black line. In case of headwind, you will have to overadjust at approx. 20% for the drive and underadjust the second shot at -10%. There will be a third shot with this approach. Overadjust the shot at 30% and you will have a great chance at getting the ball into the hole.
Namhae Cliffs Hole #4 (Par 3)
| Drive | 2nd Shot | |
|---|---|---|
| ↩️ Spin | 1-3 Back, 1-2 Left | |
| ⛳️ Overadjust | 20% | |
| 🏐 Ball | Marlin,(Rookie); Katana, Kingmaker (Pro/Expert) | |
| 🏑 Club(s) | Backbone (Rookie) Goliath, B52 (Pro/Expert) | |
Black line:
This is one of the toughest Par 3s to play in the Namhae Cliffs 9-Hole Cup. With 20% overadjustment, you can get the ball bouncing in the fairway over to the green. Just be careful and keep away from the right side of the green, else you may get the ball rolling down to the rough.
White line:
The ideal way to approach this shot is to use a Sniper or any other wood club that gives you good ball guide and accuracy. Using a driver can make the rough-bump not so difficult to handle.
Namhae Cliffs Hole #5 (Par 4)
| Drive | 2nd Shot | |
|---|---|---|
| ↩️ Spin | Max Top; Max Left; 50% Curl Left | |
| ⛳️ Overadjust | 10% | 10% |
| 🏐 Ball | Titan, Marlin (Rookie), Katana, Quasar, Berserker (Pro/Expert) | |
| 🏑 Club(s) | Hornet, Thorn (Rookie/Pro/Expert) | |
Black line:
For the drive, choose a driver that has a minimum of 225 yards of power stat. Use maximum left spin along with 3 to 5 bars of topspin. Try to get the ball to the top right corner. For the second shot, use a short iron to get the ball towards the pin.
White line:
If there is a tailwind, aim for the green. Use maximum left spin and 4 to 6 bars of backspin. You can get the ball in the green or you can land on the rough or in the bunker. Just aim it right and you will be fine.

Namhae Cliffs Hole #6 (Par 5)
| Drive | 2nd Shot | |
|---|---|---|
| ↩️ Spin | Max Top + Overpower | Max Back |
| ⛳️ Overadjust | 10% | 10% (40% 3rd Shot) |
| 🏐 Ball | Titan or Kingmaker | |
| 🏑 Club(s) | Big Topper (Rookie/Pro); Thor’s Hammer (Expert) | Thorn (Rookie/Pro), Hornet (Rookie/Pro/Expert) |
The drive will make or break it here and you need to bounce it over the island with all the topspin you have (use a driver like the Big Topper here!).
You also need to use about 75% overpower in this shot to get the distance to make it over to that island – that’s the only way to get an eagle in this Par 5 in the Namhae Cliffs 9-Hole Cup!
If you do now approach the green, you will play massively uphill so reduce your wind adjustment by 40%! You need to use a club with a lot of backspin to make sure to make it slow down enough on the green for a solid chance to get your albatross and if you made it here you will have your eagle secured.
Namhae Cliffs Hole #7 (Par 4)
| Drive | 2nd Shot | |
|---|---|---|
| ↩️ Spin | no spin | Max Back |
| ⛳️ Overadjust | 10 % | 0% |
| 🏐 Ball | Marlin/Titan (Rookie/Pro); Titan/Kingmaker (Pro/Expert) | |
| 🏑 Club(s) | Extra Mile (Rookie/Pro); Thor’s Hammer (Expert) | Thorn(Rookie/Pro), Hornet (Rookie/Pro/Expert) |
Here you can either go risky and go for that eagle by overpowering your drive or play it easiert by bouncing over the rough – the more distance you get with your drive the higher the chances that you will get the eagle.
With tailwind, you can use max topspin and overpower to even reach the green with your drive but the fairway gets narrow so everything else than a perfect max overpower shot will likely get you either into the rough or the bunker so rather play medium overpower without topspin and play it clean in your second shot.
Your second shot will then approach the pin directly with either the Thorn or Hornet to have that massive backspin.
Namhae Cliffs Hole #8 (Par 3)
| Drive | 2nd Shot | |
|---|---|---|
| ↩️ Spin | 4-5 Top; max Left + medium curl | max Back |
| ⛳️ Overadjust | 10 % | 10% |
| 🏐 Ball | Marlin, Navigator (Rookie); Kingmaker (Pro/Expert) | |
| 🏑 Club(s) | Goliath (Rookie); Goliath, Sniper (Pro/Expert) | Goliath (Rookie); Goliath, Sniper (Pro/Expert) |
This is one of the toughest par 3s in the Namhae Cliff 9-Hole Cup. Your aim here should be to get the ball to the green. Pushing too hard can result in the ball going into the water. In tailwind, use 2 bars of backspin. In headwind, use 1 bar. For the second shot, play with a wood club and aim straight at the pin. Use 5 bars of backspin in tailwind and 3.5 bars backspin in crosswind. Do not use any spin in headwind.

|---|---|---|
| ↩️ Spin | 3 Top, 3 Back | |
| ⛳️ Overadjust | 20 % | 10% |
| 🏐 Ball | Titan (Rookie), Titan/Kingmaker (Pro/Expert) | |
| 🏑 Club(s) | Big Dawg/Quarterback (Rookie), Quarterback/Sniper (Pro/Expert) | |
Black line:
This is a very tough drive to play in this tournament. You need good accuracy and ball guide to play this shot right. The ideal way to approach this shot is to aim for the top right corner. Make the ball bounce on the fairway to make it eventually roll up towards the pin. For the second shot, choose a club with a minimum of 170 yards stat.
White line:
If there is crosswind or tailwind, use a club with a minimum of 225 yards of power stat. Go with 4.5 bars of topspin and maximum left spin. For the second shot, get the ball bouncing on the island towards the pin.
Blue line:
If there is a straight tailwind, you can opt for a PowerS ball and get as close to the green as possible.
