From The Tee
From The Fairway As part of the recent Revitalization Programme the green has been extended to the right and a new large bunker has been added to the left fairway.

Hole 3
Hole Name Metal Man
From The Tee
From The Fairway Favour the RHS of the fairway from the tee. Danger lurks left and right when going for it in 2. A lay-up over the road is a smart play leaving a short iron to this tricky green.
On The Green As part of the recent Revitalization Programme a new green has been added a further 65 yards behind the old one making this a true Par 5.

Hole 4
Hole Name Gan Gaineamh
From The Tee One of the great Par 3’s in the world with no bunkers … Gan Gaineamh translates to “without sand”. Anything short or right is a very difficult up and down. Left is a good miss from the tee.

Hole 6
Hole Name Bomore
From The Tee
From The Fairway A tough driving hole with O-B all along the RHS and bunkers to the left. The fairway also slopes slightly left to right so a sliced drive will find trouble. Do not miss the green on LHS

Hole 7
Hole Name Ewing’s Profile
From The Tee A straight par 4 that looks benign but trouble awaits any errant approach with a cavernous burn protecting the green. Favour the LHS of green with your approach.

Hole 11
Hole Name Lissadell
From The Tee
From The Fairway A tough par 4 into the prevailing wind. The fairway slopes quite severely from left to right so favour the left hand side. Any approach missing short or right will have trouble making par

Hole 13
Hole Name Wrynne Point
From The Tee A picturesque par 3 playing from a height to a green surrounded by water and bunkers. The middle of the green is a good play from the tee.

Hole 14
Hole Name Mahon’s Burn
From The Tee
From The Fairway This double dogleg par 4 requires a good teeshot to find a generous fairway but the burn beckons for anything too long on the left hand side.
On The Green Beware of the false front on this green and bunker on LHS.

Hole 15
Hole Name Through the Gap
From The Tee Long hitters may take on the hill on the right hand side from the tee giving a short approach. The bunkers to the left of the green are to be avoided as is anything over the back of the green.

Hole 17
Hole Name The Gallery
From The Tee
From The Fairway A decision is required on the tee as to whether to play to the end of the fairway or “have a go” and get sufficiently far enough past the end of the fairway.
On The Green The RHS of the fairway gives maximum visibility of this treacherous green sloping from back to front. Take plenty of club for the approach

Hole Name Christy’s Farm
From The Tee A blind teeshot requires picking the correct line which, for long hitters, is the right edge of the fairway.
From The Fairway
On The Green The carry is shorter on the LHS. The middle of the green is a good O-Bjective for the approach.
