Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee A gentle downhill par 3 demanding accuracy with a long iron or even a small wood depending on wind conditions.
From The Fairway
On The Green The left side of the green is protected by a bunker and on the right trees will catch the unwary golfer.
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee A tree lined par 4 with a gentle uphill fairway requiring an accurate drive
From The Fairway
On The Green , which leaves a medium/high iron to a raised green. Take care to avoid the bunkers to the left and right of the green.
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee A good par 5 providing a test for even the best of golfers.
From The Fairway Accuracy off the tee is essential to drive into the gap between the trees on the left and the trees and ditch on the right. The risk of going for the green in two shots can bring reward or disaster –
On The Green the green is protected by a ditch running across the fairway on the approach and by bunkers on the left. If you prefer to take three shots to the green it is best to place the second shot towards the right side of the fairway to provide a good view of the green.
Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee A par 3 with a long narrow green that can alter the hole length depending on the pin position.
From The Fairway
On The Green Beware of the pool to the front left of the green.
Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee This is the first of three holes that the locals call ”Amen Corner”.
From The Fairway A stream runs across the fairway which requires a carry of approximately 240 yards from the tee to clear. Whether laying up, or going for it with the driver, accuracy is required.
On The Green The 5th hole has out of bounds along its entire length on the left hand side and trees on the right. A good drive leaves a medium iron to the green – if you lay up you will be hitting a long iron or wood to reach the green.
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee The second hole of ”Amen Corner” is another stiff test.
From The Fairway Again, a stream runs across the fairway and a long drive is required to carry the hazard.
On The Green A lay up from the tee leaves a long iron into a Mackenzie green protected by a bunker on the left. Also beware the large pond to the left of the green. This hole is a serious test of your golfing prowess. If you par the hole then congratulate yourself and move boldly to the next.
Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee The last hole of ”Amen Corner ” is another challenge that requires you to place
From The Fairway your drive over the top or to the right of the oak tree sited to the left of centre of the fairway.
On The Green The fairway is a gentle uphill climb and is tree lined to a long narrow green that is bunkered on the left-hand side.
Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee Alsager’s signature hole which is attractive and pleasing to the eye.
From The Fairway Drive on this par 4 between two oaks and to the right centre of the fairway.
On The Green Then the green is opened up. Take aim with short iron, again between two trees to a green that is well protected by bunkers.
Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee A gentle uphill par 3 with a semi-blind sloping green.
From The Fairway
On The Green The green slopes uphill from front to back and is protected by three bunkers in front and one more on the left side. Select your medium iron with great care to avoid the prO-Blems posed by this delightful short hole.
Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee A downhill dog leg right par 4 that requires a very accurate drive
From The Fairway if you are to avoid a ditch that runs down the left side of the fairway. On the other hand if you drive too far right from the raised tee,
On The Green then you could go Out Of Bounds or become entangled in the large trees that protect the right side of the fairway. A good drive leaves a relatively easy medium/short iron to a flat green.
Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee A pleasing short par 4 that gives a good opportunity for a birdie.
From The Fairway If you place your drive middle to right of the fairway you are rewarded with a short iron into a green that has a deep bunker on
On The Green the left side and a large shallow bunker on the right side of the green. Neither presents a prO-Blem if your drive is in position.
Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee A long and difficult par 4/5 that needs your longest drive if you wish to hit the green with your second shot
From The Fairway . Avoid the two fairway bunkers before hitting a long iron or wood to the two tiered green that is set into the hillside and is protected by out of bounds and a bunker on the left side.
On The Green On the green you are often left with a fast downhill putt that tests your prowess with the putter to the full. A true test of any golfers ability and skill.
Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee A downhill par 4 that provides an opportunity to open your shoulders,
From The Fairway
On The Green but you must protect against straying into the trees. A good tee shot leaves a short iron to a green that slopes away from front to back and is protected by a small bunker on the right.
Hole 14
Hole Name
From The Tee A long and difficult par 4 that needs your longest drive if you wish to hit the green with your second shot. Avoid the two fairway bunkers before hitting a long iron or wood to the green that is set into the hillside. On the green you are often left with a fast downhill putt that tests your prowess with the putter to the full. A true test of any golfers ability and skill.
From The Fairway
On The Green
Hole 15
Hole Name
From The Tee A short par 3 perched on top of the highest point on the course protected by bunkers left and right.
From The Fairway
On The Green Aim to keep left of the pin to leave an uphill putt. Take a moment as you play the hole, and take in the breathtaking views. They are spectacular and provide a near 360 degree panoramic view of several counties. The mountains of Snowdonia can even be seen on a good, clear day.
Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee A delightful downhill par 4/5 that once again gives you the feeling that you can open your shoulders and let fly.
From The Fairway Beware of the ditch that runs to the left of the fairway for the length of the hole. Aim your drive to the right side of the fairway your ball kicks left into the middle/left side of the fairway.
On The Green This leaves you with a short/middle iron to a green that slopes away from you. Danger from running through the steep sided green may cause you to err on the side of caution.
Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee A gentle downhill par 5 that is a slightly dog leg right provides a excellent opportunity of a birdie or even eagle for the low handicap player.
From The Fairway A faded drive anywhere on the fairway is acceptable (so long as you miss the fairway bunkers); this leaves a medium/long iron to along narrow but well bunkered green.
On The Green For mere mortals, a second set of fairway bunkers come into play with your second shot. All players must beware the out of bounds that runs almost the whole length of the fairway and green.
Hole 18
Hole Name
From The Tee A slight uphill dog leg right par 4 once again provides an opportunity for a birdie.
From The Fairway A faded drive aimed at the left side of the fairway misses the two fairway bunkers leaving a short iron into a semi blind green.
On The Green The green is protected with two front bunkers and a rear bunker.
