Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway The wide fairway is deceptive, as anything too far left will leave a blind second shot to a well-protected green.
On The Green Equally a drive pushed right will find very thick rough and the player will be unlikely to get up in two. The approach requires a very well struck shot to a slightly raised green and a 4 here is very welcome.
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee The upper tee has the best view of the entire Links.
From The Fairway
On The Green The green is protected by two bunkers at the front, a swale at the back and ample rough elsewhere so an accurate tee shot is important.
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee Although the fairway is reasonably wide the second shot to this par
From The Fairway 4 is a testing one with water hard up against the green on the left hand side and anything going left will result in penalty shots. A ditch runs up the right hand side of the fairway and crosses the front of the green.
On The Green 4 is a testing one with water hard up against the green on the left hand side and anything going left will result in penalty shots. A ditch runs up the right hand side of the fairway and crosses the front of the green.
Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee A tricky par 3 with trees and bushes on the left hand side of the green, a solidly struck short iron should see a par 3 secured however.

Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee Three cleverly positioned pot bunkers will trap the careless drive and a ditch and the out of bounds fence protect the right hand side of this hole.
From The Fairway
On The Green The left part of the green is also protected by a pot bunker so a very accurate shot is needed if the pin is behind it.
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway A very difficult drive with trees on both sides of the fairway and if your drive hugs the right hand side then the second shot will be a blind one. A very difficult par 4 which has been the ruin of many a scorecard.
On The Green
Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee A stunning par 3 from the back tee, a ditch running in front of the green and three bunkers will catch any mis-hit shot.

Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee Another tough driving hole with trees and bushes on the left and water on the right.
From The Fairway Once the fairway is found the second shot is straightforward. Longer hitters will have a chance of going for
On The Green the green but it is a small target. Generally a lay up shot should then leave a short chip to the green.
Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee Any drive cutting even slightly to the right will find the water and this puts pressure on the tee shot.
From The Fairway The fairway is generously wide however and a good drive will leave a short pitch into a wide but shallow green.
On The Green
Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Although there is a ditch on the left and a lake on the right this is still quite a generous fairway.
On The Green A good tee shot should provide an easier approach to a well protected and contoured green.
Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee This is the first of the newer holes added to the course.
From The Fairway With water on the right and two large bunkers left of the fairway an accurate tee shot is required.
On The Green After that there is still a lengthy shot to a large green which is guarded by another two bunkers.
Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway The second of the two new holes a beautiful left to right dog-leg with one solitary fairway bunker
On The Green . The view to the green is a stunning one and a short iron to the green should be all that is required.
Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee This is a lovely par 3 with heather running from the tee to an elevated green and a bunker guarding the left side.

Hole 14

From The Tee A tough par 4 with heather on the left and out of bounds on the right,

On The Green a long second shot awaits to a narrow green and 4 is a very good result.
Hole 15
Hole Name
From The Tee An interesting par 3 with water on the right and trees on the left.
From The Fairway
On The Green The long green is well guarded with bunkers and swales.
Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee The second par 5 on the Buddon Links can be reached with two well struck shots for the long hitter. There are however several bunkers, heather and wispy rough ready to catch any stray shots.
From The Fairway
On The Green
Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee A lovely “linksy” par 3 with no bunkers but rough and contour surrounding the green. Finish this hole then proceed to the 18th tee over the board walk and take in the stunning views.
