You know it may just come to that
Thanks for the replies all

Driver and go for it, if it gets wet so be it, take the drop to clear the water, that could be a better position and lie than if you try to land on anther tee box and don't leaving you a horrible downward lie or worse and still be no better off!
Don't have the distance to hand but for the thread it doesn't matter the tee box or distance in yards your average drive with the big club is wet, only nailing it will get you over
I'm playing this again on Sunday and have used both lay-up option and going for it option with mixed results for both. I just wanted to sanity check if I'm missing something
Try and get it out of the screws and find any dry area over the water off the tee... if I'm stroking anway, I'm not really losing out by taking the water on and still have a chance at par even if I find the drink.
What course is this from?
in this situation the only thing I would take from the tee is a bulldozer and redesign the hole.....
I'm guessing you'll get a shot? - so I'd play it with a 6 as your objective. This means you can go for it off the tee. In the water? Drop and play up with your 3rd and on with your 4th. One putt for a 5 - two for 6 - so objective achieved by delivering to your plan for the hole. And playing to my plan for a hole usually satisfies me.

I don't think the course design is a problem. There are plenty of tees to choose from if ego doesn't get in the way....
Find out what the carry is off the backs out of interest.
I made the mistake of looking up the course on the web....
Jealous!
