1A challenging opening hole, not too long but demanding an accurate tee shot and with a narrow entrance tothe green, which is most easily found from left side of the fairway. An approach from the right side of the fairway could do worse than to find the gully just to the left of the grthe green, which is most easily found from left side of the fairway. An approach from the right side of the fairway could do worse than to find the gully just to the left of the gr2A straight and shortish par 4 with a generous fairway.Another green guarded at the front, this time by bunkers on either side. A good drive can set up an early birdie opportunity, but take note of the pin position when aiming your tee3A strong par three of almost 200 yards, demanding an accurate tee shot which must carry the central fairway bunker to have a chance of reaching the green. Missing the green either side will leave a tricky up and down from either clingy rough or one of the bunkers which again guard the entrance to the green on either side. This hole4Possibly the most difficult hole on the course, 1 yard shy of a par 5 and a slight right to left dog leg.Tees left and right demand fairly straight hitting to keep the ball in the fairway. Longer hitters will be in with a chance of reaching in two, and must avoid more greenside bunkers which surround this green. For many this will be three shots or more and a good 5A partially blind tee shot, having to hit over a large fairway bunker, to a green surrounded by more bunkers.Look out for the pin position as you walk up the 4th fairway to help you choose your club. One of the larger greens on the Island, but a good tee shot to the middle of the green wi6The stump of a large, old oak tree sits in the rough on the left side of the fairway, and there is a hidden fairway bunker on the right.Not a long par 4 and can be a birdie opportunity with two good shots. The two tier green narrows in the middle, squeezed by a bunker on either side. It widens front and back, and c7A short par 4 presenting a birdie opportunity.A straight tee shot will leave a relatively straightforward approach. Longer hitters might gamble on getting close from the tee, but might also do well to lag up where the fairway 8A long, straight par 5 with trees left and right.There are fairway bunkers about 200 yards from the tee and another just short of the green.The approach to the green narrows in the last 50 yards or so, and again it can be a wise move to play up short of the fairway bunker and leave a simple approach shot to the green.9One of the best holes on the island, a long risk reward par4 with a ditch across the fairway just short of the green. A long drive will present an opportunity totake on the second shot to a larger green but this will be out of range for most. Laying up short of the ditch leaves a straightforward approach that always plays a little bit long10A straight par 4 with a generous fairway which slopes slightly upwards from the tee.A centre or left of centre line will avoid the trees which begin to encroach slightly onto the fairway on the right. The green is one of the longer ones and slopes away from you, f11Another risk reward par 4. A ditch runs across the fairway at around 200 yards from the medal tee with fairway bunkers left and right about 30 to 40 yards short of it.A choice to lag up or go for it for some. The approach to the green is blind, hitting over the flood bank to a green about 40-50 yards beyond, which is wider than it is long. There12A short par 4, but another risk reward hole.The green can be taken on from the tee, and has a very narrow entrance guarded by bunkers and rough. A lay up off the tee will need to be long enough to carry the ditch about 150 yThe green can be taken on from the tee, and has a very narrow entrance guarded by bunkers and rough. A lay up off the tee will need to be long enough to carry the ditch about 150 y13Another partially blind par 3,this time hitting over the flood bank to a long and fairly wide green. An old hawthorn tree guards the back right hand corner of the green.The green slopes upwards from front to back and there are some tricky borrows, but again a tee shot to the middle of the green will never be very far away from the flag.14Not the longest par 4 but usually into the prevailing wind.A slight left to right dog leg from the medal tees, demanding an accurate tee shot to the fairway which sits slightly above the green.With the slight slope and the wind, this can be a difficult approach to judge, and you will often need to take account of more than just the bare yardage to work it out. The two ti15A short par 4 from the white and red tees, and a long par 3 from the yellows.The two tier green is wide and surrounded by bunkers, but this hole can be a good birdie opportunity.16A shortish par 5 off the white tees, and a 4 from the yellows. A par 5 also from the reds.A dog leg right to left with fairway bunkers on the left and the right. An accurate drive is required to find the fairway and from the yellow tees in particular the length of seconAgain the entrance to the green is narrow and protected either side by bunkers, so it can be wise to play up short.17A medium length par 3 demanding an accurate tee shot.Bunkers surround the front of the green and there is rough all around. Not the largest green, again a middle of the green strategy will never be very far away from the pin. A featu18A very strong par 4 to finish. Demands 2 well hit shots to reach the green,especially into the wind or if the fairways are wet. For most though, this will be three shots or more avoiding the fairway bunkers right and left.A large green to aim at with the approach, and only one greenside bunker to contend with. The green is overlooked by the clubhouse and has been the scene of many a tight match play
