Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway A good tee shot with a long iron or fairway metal followed by a short iron on to the green which slopes back to front will provide a birdie opportunity.
On The Green Big hitters might consider driving the green and going for an eagle, but bunkers short of the green and to the right and left are very much in play. Look back for the first of many superb views of the Clyde estuary.

Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee Although the second longest par 4, club choice is critical to avoid finishing partly up a hill just over 200yards away.
From The Fairway Doing so will leave a level stance for another long Iron or fairway wood for the blind second. Finding the green in two shots is good play here.
On The Green

Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee Club selection could be anything from a short iron to a wood depending on the wind.
From The Fairway
On The Green A tempting green protected by a front bunker and trees surrounding the pond and the out of bounds left side. The green slopes from back to front and helps stop the ball. More great views across Ardmore Point

Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee A good drive down two slopes, stopping before the ditch,
From The Fairway
On The Green will leave a short-iron approach to the slightly elevated green, taking care to prevent the ball running through. A reasonable birdie chance. As you walk towards the green, take in the panoramic view to your right.

Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee The green at the top of the hill is drivable by the ‘big hitters’ and has been ‘aced’, but a little course management is advisable. Bunkers front left and right may catch the ball. It is wiser to lay up or be pin high right leaving a simple pitch and, hopefully, a single putt.

Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee The classic way to play the hole is not to cut the corner, risking the ‘out of bounds’ on the left. Instead,
From The Fairway
On The Green shape the shot for the hole and draw the ball round the corner to leave a manageable approach landing directly on the green to avoid unpredictable bounces and run off. Views across to your left take in Loch Lomond and part of the Trossachs.

Hole 7
Hole Name

Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee A short iron across the [out of bounds] Old Luss Road will suffice to reach the sloping green. Aim to finish below the hole for an attacking birdie putt.

Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee Fantastic scenery from the tee looking out over the Clyde towards Arran.
From The Fairway
On The Green A green sloping front to back can result in a well-hit drive running through. Aiming for the right of the green will allow the contours to assist you. Don’t expect a birdie!

Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee A blind green hidden in a tree-lined dell. Select a club which will leave you short of the gap and ideally to the right of it.
From The Fairway
On The Green From there it is just a little pitch, but check the pin position before choosing your club. There is approximately a two-club difference between the front and back of the green.

Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee A better eagle chance than the 1st. A long enough drive will leave you short of the ditch and around 180 Yards to the left-to-right sloping green.

Hole 14
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway A long drive over the dip will leave you over the brow of the hill but beware of the bunkers at either side of the fairway
On The Green . A second shot played down the right hand side will reach the green, which slopes right to left and back to front and is difficult to read. Fly the green to avoid unpredictable bounces.

Hole 15
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Favour the left with the drive and the slope will bring the ball back to the middle of the fairway.
On The Green An errant drive to the right can leave you out of bounds and in housing. The steep dip with a ditch across the bottom insists that the second is flown all the way to the green, but before selecting your club note whether the pin is on the upper or lower tier.

Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee The small quarry immediately in front of the tee can seem more formidable than in reality as it is only a 70 yd carry.
From The Fairway A small patch of unseen fairway just beyond the first bunker makes this hole one club longer than it looks.
On The Green The green is the flattest on the course, making it the best birdie chance of the par 3s.

Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway A straightforward drive, ideally to the left of the fairway, and a mid to short iron will set up a birdie putt.

Hole 18
Hole Name
From The Tee A great finishing hole. The wide fairway invites you to open your shoulders, so go for it.
From The Fairway The further up the fairway you are the easier it is to flight the second on to the green, a stage in front of the clubhouse. The putting surface is relatively flat inviting a closing birdie.
