Hole 1

Hole Name

From The Tee The opening hole is a drivable par 4 for the lower handicap golfer.

From The Fairway With a fairway bunker & one protecting the green on the front right, this short hole should be an easy start for most but can easily

On The Green trip to a few players early in the round with the narrowing trees & the left to right slopping green. A great risk & reward opener

Hole 2

Hole Name

From The Tee Do not let the distance deceive you.

From The Fairway

On The Green A saucer shaped green makes it tough to hold from the tee & with a solitary bunker to guard the front of the green, a three on the card is always a bonus

Hole 3

Hole Name

From The Tee A straight drive is required otherwise the player will find it nearly impossible to hit

From The Fairway

On The Green the green in two. With trees down the left & out of bounds on the right, this dogleg hole is awkward to negotiate. The drive is key

Hole 4

Hole Name

From The Tee Narrow from the tee with out of bounds on the right, a daunting tee shot for most.

From The Fairway Once away, the player needs to miss the small copse of trees in the middle of the fairway & then is faced with a green that slopes from back to front in two sections

On The Green . Beware of the bunkers right & left of the green as there is every chance you could splash out across the green into the other

Hole 5

Hole Name

From The Tee The player has a dilemma from the tee. Do they try & cut the dogleg risking the out of bounds on the right or play sensible &

From The Fairway negotiate the fairway bunker. A tricky sloping green makes this hole a tough par even if the player has played the tee shot well

On The Green

Hole 6

Hole Name

From The Tee Stroke index one for a reason. Although this hole is similar distance to the 4th, it plays longer.

From The Fairway The player is forced to think about the fairway that slopes down from the left which may leave an awkward stance for the key second shot.

On The Green The shot needs to leave the player with a view of the green so they can play over the water but short of the out of bounds beyond the green. Take a five & run to the seventh

Hole 7

Hole Name

From The Tee A clear view from the raised tee positions gives the perfect view of the hole ahead.

From The Fairway If the player drives well, they are faced with a tricky approach shot that cannot be leaked left or right as danger awaits.

On The Green A sharp incline to the green from the left or trees on the right, hitting the green is definitely a major bonus

Hole 8

Hole Name

From The Tee From the competition tee, this hole is a different beast with a hedge row to clear,

From The Fairway it's more about mental strength of the player than the actual shot. Although this is the easiest of the par five's,

On The Green out of bounds lurks down the right with water short of the green. With a large slope from left to right, the approach can be conservative as the ball tends to filter down into the middle if hit slightly left

Hole 9

Hole Name

From The Tee A great risk & reward hole. The short, partially blind ninth is drivable for

From The Fairway the longer hitter but with out of bounds right & trees left it's a risky shot. If played in regulation, the par shouldn't pose a major prO-Blem due to the holes length

On The Green

Hole 10

Hole Name

From The Tee The green is hidden behind tress on the left from the tee so position of the tee shot is paramount to leave a short shot up the hill to a raised green.

From The Fairway

On The Green The green is wide but shallow so be careful not to be long as tress behind await

Hole 11

Hole Name

From The Tee What you see is what you get. With this raised tee position,

From The Fairway the complete hole is in front of you. Select your club & pull the trigger but remember it's down hill

On The Green

Hole 12

Hole Name

From The Tee Two precise shots required to achieve your par.

From The Fairway The tee shot is blind over the corner with the shorter hitter having to play short of the pond leaving a much longer second.

On The Green The approach shot also needs to be accurate as the green has out of bounds behind & a large drop to the left. It is possible to run the ball onto the green from the right

Hole 13

Hole Name

From The Tee A straight driving hole with the ball kicking to the left once over the hill.

From The Fairway If long enough, the red tee is the perfect line. The second shot needs to be thought out as to find a flat lie makes the approach shot shot much easier to execute.

On The Green A large, angled green awaits with out of bounds beyond so you don't want to be long

Hole 14

Hole Name

From The Tee A long par three with a tricky green. Like the eleventh, the hole is visible from the tee although flat rather than down hill.

From The Fairway

On The Green The green needs no bunkers for defence as the slopes & borrows to yield many a three putt

Hole 15

Hole Name

From The Tee Another great risk & reward hole. Played in regulation,

From The Fairway the hole is simple with the only real concern being the out of bounds down the right. The green is long & narrow with a tight bunker to the left & a bunker someway in front of the green.

On The Green The length of the hole means the player should be attacking with a short iron. Bigger hitters may attempt the green from the tee but beware of the copse to the left & out of bounds to the right

Hole 16

Hole Name

From The Tee Position from the tee is important. The player needs to miss

From The Fairway the fairway bunker on the corner of the dogleg but drive far enough to see the green passed the trees on the right.

On The Green Bunkers guarding the green & a sloping green from the left makes the player think about plotting their way around the hole. Another chance for the big hitter if they can carry the trees on the right

Hole 17

Hole Name

From The Tee Oooh it should be so simple. This short hole should cause no concern but miss the green & make your own mind up.

From The Fairway

On The Green With a large green to hit & a solitary bunker for protection, the hole is straight forward but get the tee shot wrong & face a tricky bunker shot or chip to save your par

Hole 18

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway A tough finishing hole. With trees lining the fairway on both sides, a straight & long tee shot is required while avoiding the fairway bunker.

On The Green The hole plays even harder from the white tees which is a blind shot from the bottom of the hill. A long second is normally on the cards where accuracy is also required to miss the three greenside bunkers & ready the player for the tricky green. With twists & turns, this green makes you frustrated walking back to the 19th for that well earned drink
