1Strong opening hole which is generally played into the prevailing westerly wind.2The Tee shot should favour the left side of the fairway and be short of the slope.3This will be a tough tee shot for many as it has to carry the slope while being threaded between the trees on the right and the two fairway bunkers.4Undoubtedly one of Cowglen’s best holes and illustrates that length is not essential in making a hole challenging.5Relatively straightforward Par three which for most will require no more than a mid iron.6A really tough Par 4 regardless of conditions which most would do well to play as a Par 5.7Tee shot should favour the left side of the fairway in order to utilise the slope which will not only kick the ball forward but towards the centre.8A great driving hole from an elevated tee which gives fantastic views over Glasgow.9A really nice Par 3 to finish the front nine.The right side of the green is protected by a burn and anything leaking right will be gathered towards it.10Quite a straightforward hole although the second shot can be awkward due to the upslope and the fact that the green will be unsighted for most players.Quite a straightforward hole although the second shot can be awkward due to the upslope and the fact that the green will be unsighted for most players.11This is a very inviting drive from an elevated tee which places an emphasis on position as opposed to length.12A tough Par 3 which requires a well struck shot to reach the sanctuary of the putting surface.13A short par 4 which like so many at Cowglen is not to be taken for granted.14Another really good driving hole from an elevated tee.All the trouble is clear to see from this tee and the bunkers on the left are definitely in play even for moderate hitters due to the drive playing downhill and a slope in the fair15An attractive short Par 4 where position is once again key to the tee shot.The right side is certainly to be favoured as anything left will run the risk of being blocked out by the tall trees; however the perfect landing area is in between the fairway bun16The last of Cowglens short holes and regarded by many as its best.The green is very narrow at the front and is protected on the right by two bunkers and on the left by some subtle contouring.17Another elevated tee shot on this very straight penultimate hole.There are no fairway bunkers to negotiate but the fairway is lined on both sides by copses of trees.18An excellent finishing hole which requires the player to keep concentrating and swinging well right to the end.Like the 17th a very straight hole where a good drive is necessary so that the green can be reached in two.
