From The Tee Our Professional recommends a mid iron to this well protected green.
From The Fairway The ridge running across the hole is the well preserved remains of an Iron Age fort; fail to make it over and you may ask yourself if a roughly-hewn 2,000 year old axe may have been a wiser club selection.
From The Fairway A good drive between the fairway bunkers leaves a straightforward shot to a green designed by Bush Hill's long time and much respected professional George Low.
On The Green This is our Oldest Member's favourite green with its subtle contours and interesting pin positions but, like PG Wodehouse, it must be read carefully or you will fail to see the funny side.
On The Green The risk is the trees down the left and the out of bounds to the left of the two tiered green.The day after a north London derby the flag may be at the front (red for an Arsenal win), or on the top tier (white for a Spurs victory). A yellow flag in the middle indicates a draw.
From The Tee The first par 5 and the hardest hole on the course.
From The Fairway Find the left of the fairway and then, on the off chance you have actually hit it where you meant to, aim left of the cross bunker before leaving a short pitch shot next to the pin and walking away with a birdie.
From The Tee This is actually the hardest par 3 in Middlesex.
From The Fairway Our Professional takes an extra club as this uphill hole plays MUCH longer than the yardage.
On The Green The members have a name for holes 5, 6 and 7 which cannot be repeated but if you survive without losing a ball and/or your sense of humour you are in good shape.
From The Tee Our Professional describes this as a long par 5 that can be reached in two but he lives in a parallel universe of straight drives, crisp irons and reliable putting.
From The Fairway The bumps in the fairway are an anti-glider legacy of WWII.
On The Green Down the right from the tee sets up the hole. There is a ditch 100 yards from the green.
From The Fairway Our Professional's drive hugs the Poplar trees on the right and holds the sloping fairway.
On The Green The walk from 12th green to the 13th tee is a moment for quiet reflection (aka silent fury) but it must pass quickly because the next has water and wind plus all the hazards Harry and James could think of.
From The Tee A blind and short driveable par 4. Just left of the oak tree is the line for those of us with marbles.
From The Fairway
On The Green The green doesn't so much slope as accelerate away so your second shot is either a sensible bump and run or a Mickelson-esque high back spinning pitch with enough munch to leave it next to the pin.
