Hole 1

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway This par-4, which is only moderately long, leads slightly uphill, but is easily manageable in terms of length and, together with a wide fairway, forms a fair opening hole.

On The Green For long hitters, the deep drive zone is narrowed by fairway bunkers on both sides. The green is defended by a deep bunker on the left. A distinct step separates both green sides into very different sectors that can be played.

Hole 2

Hole Name

From The Tee This medium-length dogleg that bends to the right offers a relatively easy drive onto a wide fairway.

From The Fairway A bunker in the right inner corner of the knee is intended to make it more difficult for tall players to shorten. However, the fairway bunker on the left side should not be ignored. Access to the green is well screened by a bunker on the left and some trees on the right.

On The Green The green surface sags towards the middle from both sides and presents some attractive challenges when approaching.

Hole 3

Hole Name

From The Tee This hole requires a long and very precise tee shot as the narrow, elongated green slopes down on both sides.

From The Fairway Anyone who misses the side of the green is faced with a recovery shot that requires a lot of feeling and skill.

On The Green Old avenue trees and a pond lie in wait for balls that are skewed too far to the right. On the left side, high, impenetrable rough should be avoided.

Hole 4

Hole Name

From The Tee A relatively short par-5 awaits you here, the green of which can be reached by long hitters in two shots under favorable circumstances.

From The Fairway To do this, the bunkers on both sides of the fairway must be avoided when driving, and the bunker 50 m in front of the green must also be avoided, otherwise the hoped-for birdie can easily turn into a bogey.

On The Green The diagonally oriented green requires precise play, as it is well defended at the front by a deep bunker and at the back by the forest that begins immediately behind it.

Hole 5

Hole Name

From The Tee This medium-length dogleg that bends to the right has one of the most beautiful tree backdrops on the entire site as its background.

From The Fairway The tee shot leads to a relatively wide fairway, although two bunkers lying one behind the other on the right inside should be avoided. The very wide green should be played carry as there is a depression and a deep bunker in front of it.

On The Green However, caution is advised here, because if the approach is too long, you will quickly find yourself in the edge of the forest, which extends across the entire width directly behind the green. The green has a longitudinal ridge in the middle, from which it slopes down

Hole 6

Hole Name

From The Tee This very long par-4 runs a little downhill and can therefore be played much shorter than the sheer number of meters would suggest.

From The Fairway An impressive avenue lined with mighty chestnut trees runs along the right edge of the fairway.

On The Green The drive leads along a relatively wide fairway, the entrance to the green is largely open at the front, while two bunkers run along its left flank.

Hole 7

Hole Name

From The Tee This relatively long par-4 runs slightly uphill as a dogleg to the left.

From The Fairway In the left inner apex angle there is an elongated bunker relay. You should play around these as much as possible if you want to reach the elevated green with your second shot.

On The Green The strikingly undulating green is flanked by a pond on the right and a deep bunker on the left, so a good score requires a precise approach.

Hole 8

Hole Name

From The Tee This extremely long track is actually not that difficult to play because it leads slightly downhill. The drive should be precise, as there is a biotope on the left and a pond on the right waiting for tricky balls.

From The Fairway The wide fairway with a beautiful view of the Westerholt church tower bends slightly to the right twice, with a bunker in the inner corner encouraging the player to stick to the specified line of play in both cases.

On The Green Due to the length of the course, the green is only defended by a bunker at the front left and has a moderately modeled surface.

Hole 9

Hole Name

From The Tee This attractive track was built in the middle of an idyllic, almost unchanged orchard meadow, with the gnarled old fruit trees leaving only a very narrow entrance to the green.

From The Fairway

On The Green Although the hole is only moderately long and has no bunkers, a par can only be achieved here if you play the small green precisely.

Hole 10

Hole Name

From The Tee This short hole is also the most spectacular hole on the course: It has no fairway, just a tee and green.

From The Fairway In between there is nothing but the water of the "pigeon pond" over a length of 110 meters. If you don't manage to reach the safe bank, you can make further attempts from a "dropping zone", from where there is only about 40 meters of water to overcome.

On The Green A precise approach to the green is necessary if you want to avoid the bunker to the left of the green. If you hit too far for fear of the water, you can easily end up in a deep bunker, which - invisible when teeing off - lies in wait to the right behind the green for balls that are too long.

Hole 11

Hole Name

From The Tee This medium-length par-4 should not pose any major problems for the player.

From The Fairway There is a relatively wide fairway when teeing off. However, caution is advised when approaching the green, as there are two deep bunkers on the left and right of the green waiting for warped balls.

On The Green The strikingly undulating green surface presents the player with some attractive tasks when putting.

Hole 12

Hole Name

From The Tee This relatively short hole is certainly one of the easier holes on the course.

From The Fairway

On The Green But you shouldn't underestimate it, as balls that are skewed to the right can end up out of bounds or in the bushes. The left side of the green is well defended by a deep bunker.

Hole 13

Hole Name

From The Tee This medium-length par-4 is relatively difficult to complete in par.

From The Fairway The drive doesn't cause any particular problems if it doesn't land in the bunker on the left side of the fairway.

On The Green On the other hand, the shot to the slightly raised green, which is shielded by a pond on the right and a bunker on the left, requires a lot of courage and precision.

Hole 14

Hole Name

From The Tee This track plays downhill and is therefore not as difficult to play in terms of length as one might expect.

From The Fairway The spectacular tee shot leads diagonally over an elongated pond, and for long hitters an additional pond comes into play in the inner apex angle of the dogleg that bends to the left, which requires a drive of around 220 meters carry to overcome.

On The Green The front green entrance is open, but a bunker on the left makes the approach a little risky. The strikingly undulating green requires some attention.

Hole 15

Hole Name

From The Tee Thanks to a drive that leads uphill, this track is very long.

From The Fairway The impressive chestnut avenue on the right side ensures that the prevailing wind from the west has little influence.

On The Green Playing from tee to green over a wide fairway isn't too difficult. However, the deep bunker to the right of the green should be avoided.

Hole 16

Hole Name

From The Tee This dogleg, which bends sharply to the left after 180 meters, can be shortened considerably by very long players when driving. If you were able to overcome the bunkers at this point, you have a chance of reaching the green with your second shot in a westerly wind.

From The Fairway For players with a shorter drive, the bunkers located in the inner bend of the dogleg and the pond in the middle of the fairway require a high level of precision in the length of the shots.

On The Green The entrance to the slightly elevated green is very narrow, as the right side is defended by a bunker and on the left there is a small pond waiting for tricky balls.

Hole 17

Hole Name

From The Tee This is by far the shortest par-4 hole on the course, but it is not necessarily the easiest. An old oak tree standing 180 meters away in the middle of the fairway can only be overcome with a very precise shot just past its crown or flat under its branches.

From The Fairway In addition, every tee shot that is skewed to the left ends up in a blind spot in front of a corner of the forest, which blocks the line of play to the green on the next shot.

On The Green The green is well defended by two bunkers on either side, which make the entrance to the green very narrow. A striking wave in the green requires a very precise approach shot.

Hole 18

Hole Name

From The Tee This long course with a beautiful view of the Westerholt church is certainly one of the most difficult on the course and forms a worthy finishing hole.

From The Fairway While the fairway is pleasantly wide in the first 450 m and only one fairway bunker has to be avoided, the psychologically difficult shot to the green requires a lot of courage and skill, otherwise you will end up either in the wooden stream that runs directly in front of the green or in two ponds that are each other located on both sides of it.

On The Green If you hit too far out of fear of these water hazards, you run the risk of ending up just behind the green. The green, which slopes sharply towards the back, will present many a difficult putting task.
