Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee The 1st hole is a good length par four played into the prevailing wind.
From The Fairway A strong drive down the left side will open up the green for your second (but beware of the out of bounds on the left).
On The Green There is plenty of room up the right but the offset green will be hard to find from that side.
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee The 2nd hole is another long par 4 usually played with a left to right wind.
From The Fairway A solid drive should set up a long or medium iron second. There are no greenside bunkers,
On The Green but a diagonal swale running along the right side of the green can throw poorly placed shots offline. Get a par here and you've earned it.
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee The 3rd hole is the first of the excellent par threes at Cumberwell.
From The Fairway From the back tee it can be quite formidable playing into the wind but the forward tees offer a chance of a birdie.
On The Green Clubbing is the key as anything short can role back down the slope and into the front bunkers, or worse still, the pond that fronts the picturesque hole. Beware the wind that comes in from the left as the tee is sheltered by a copse of trees.
Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee The 4th hole can be a bit of a breather as it's usually played down wind.
From The Fairway A good line, if you are brave enough, is over the sleeper faced bunker on the left with a touch of fade. If not,
On The Green you can hit it further right into the generous fairway but you may get blocked out by the old oak tree and large mound that protect the right side of the green.
Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee The 5th hole is a superb shot par four with many tee shot options.
From The Fairway Do you have a go at the green, or lay-up shot of the three bunkers? Or do you try and thread one down the gap in the fairway between the bunkers and
On The Green the deep rough and trees that protect the left side of the hole? Get it right and the birdie could be yours. Get it wrong and the bunkers and sloping green could present all sorts of prO-Blems.
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee From the back tees this is a long hole, but from the regular tees it is a bit more forgiving.
From The Fairway There are no bunkers on the hole but the mounding on either side of the fairway can kick your ball into a lot of trouble if you get a bit wayward.
On The Green
Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee Like many of the short holes at Cumberwell, this one plays down to a green set in the ancient Hayswood
From The Fairway . Clubbing is always the issue here so check the yardage and go with the facts. Anything long can hit the bank at the back and disappear into O-Blivion. It can be a nice little birdie or a card wrecker.
On The Green
Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee One of the best holes you'll ever come across.
From The Fairway The stream down the left side tempts people to block it right, but that leaves a very long and testing approach from the rough.
On The Green Play boldly straight down the centre and the hole becomes much more forgiving. A small well protected green is found the other side of the stream on this delightful dogleg.
Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee Just what you need at the end of a steep climb to the 9th tee.
From The Fairway A hole measuring 606 yards. But don't get too distressed, the fairway is very generous and is usually played down wind.
On The Green A drive up the right side with draw can sometimes get a helpful kick from the bank allowing you to set up a fairly short third shot.
