Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee The round begins with a daunting hole. The first is a long par 5 – 604 yards from the back tee, with an uphill drive.
From The Fairway There are fairway bunkers to gather wayward drives left and right and there are two areas of young plantations on the left and right. The right side of the first is out of bounds.
On The Green The approach to the first green is uphill and the green slopes back to front with an inviting bunker on the front left. There is a generous green but anything too far back will leave almost impossible putts if the pin is placed on the front.
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee The second is another par five that is a must-birdie for anyone who has serious aspirations of winning competitions.
From The Fairway A good hole for those fortunate enough to slice their balls off the tee, so long as you are long enough to cross the white stakes on the right.
On The Green It is a dogleg right with out of bounds again on the right. The green can be tricky enough as it is about ten yards at the front mushrooming out to about twenty five yards at the back.
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee The third is the first of the par fours measuring 406 yards from the back pegs.
From The Fairway There is out of bounds on the right with the boundary fence closely guarded by tall trees that will provide some with lucky escapes and RYardser Cup bounces back onto the fairway!
On The Green The green again slopes from back to front offering up some tricky pin positions.
Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee Measuring only 159 yards from the back tees it is still a formidable challenge although indexed as the easiest hole.
From The Fairway Club selection can vary by as much as three or four clubs, depending on the wind and even then when you think you have it right you have to take into account the difference in elevation from tee to green.
On The Green There is space over the back but if the nasty green keeper has cut the grass that day you will be in the water. And, there is some lovely bunkering at the front as well.
Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee The fifth is the first of four holes along the Liffey. The more courses I play, the more cautious I get when I see short par fours on the card before I tee off.
From The Fairway The members tee at least offers you some hope of not slicing into the lake placed in the fairway, but still leaves a tough second shot.
On The Green It only 240 yards to carry the lake but you are often left with a pitch to a green sloping devilishly towards the Liffey. A definite heartbreaker!
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee One of the more difficult par 4’s, it measures 432 yards from the back tees and you can be left with a very long second shot.
From The Fairway The sixth is again along the Liffey with a plantation area on the left of the fairway. The fairway here is quite narrow ending with a series of bunkers that cross the fairway.
On The Green The green is generous with bunkering short of the green and the Liffey just to the right to catch wayward approach shots.
Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole seven is the last hole along the Liffey with a straight
From The Fairway Hole seven is the last hole along the Liffey with a straight fairway, plantation to the left and Liffey to the right.
On The Green Everything appears straightforward until you see the green. The Liffey cuts into the front right encouraging those less than brave to push their approach shots left where there is a substantial bunker waiting.
Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee The eighth hole is an uphill, dogleg left, par four. It measures 356 yards from the back tees and has out of bounds around the shoulder of the dogleg on the right.
From The Fairway The green is has two tiers and is very quick back to front, three putts will be a regular occurrence here.
On The Green It is actually quite a tricky hole as the plantation which lies between you and the green will catch drives trying to fight the wind or avoid the O-B.
Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee The card says it is 189 from the back tees, but it will play anything like 140 to 220 depending on the direction of the wind and whether there is any wind at all.
From The Fairway The front nine finishes with a hole that will confuse and bemuse you every time you play it.
On The Green And then the fact that you are playing from a raised tee to a green that slopes from front to back and right to left with some cruel pin positions.
Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee The back nine begins with and intimidating dogleg par four. There is a lake to the right encouraging you to go left, but this will make your second shot longer and tougher.
From The Fairway The carry over water is not as long as it looks and the fairway kicks right making your ball travel that bit further.
On The Green The approach to the green is narrow with only one bunker protecting the green, which slopes back to front, but watch out for the water on the left which creeps up the side of the green.
Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee The eleventh and twelfth seem to be similar holes according to the card as they are side by side and measure roughly similar in yardage.
From The Fairway Hole eleven is indexed as one of the toughest and you will see why. Hole twelve, while being straightforward, has some nasty bunkers left and right of the fairway waiting to gather up any loose tee shots.
On The Green But when the wind blows, two good strikes are required to hit the eleventh green while a good drive on the twelfth will leave a short approach into the green.
Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee The eleventh and twelfth seem to be similar holes according to the card as they are side by side and measure roughly similar in yardage.
From The Fairway Hole twelve, while being straightforward, has some nasty bunkers left and right of the fairway waiting to gather up any loose tee shots.
On The Green But when the wind blows, two good strikes are required to hit the eleventh green while a good drive on the twelfth will leave a short approach into the green.
Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee Thirteen is the first par five of the back nine and is regarded as the easiest par five.
From The Fairway
On The Green It still requires a few long shots to reach and a large green will certainly not yield too many birdies, never mind eagles.
Hole 14
Hole Name
From The Tee It measures 382 from the back tees and a good tee shot is needed as pin placements can be difficult with bunkers surrounding the green.
From The Fairway The fourteenth is a dogleg par four down the hill. You can be forgiven for thinking you are at the beach when you look down the fairway here as there are bunkers everywhere.
On The Green It measures 382 from the back tees and a good tee shot is needed as pin placements can be difficult with bunkers surrounding the green.
Hole 15
Hole Name
From The Tee And so begins what I would consider to be one of the most difficult finishing four holes in the country. I don’t think you will disagree.
From The Fairway Fifteen is a 187 yard par three played into a narrow, long green well protected by bunkers. Getting on the green will be an achievement in itself – staying on it and two putting another.
On The Green A tough, strong hole made all the more difficult by a prevailing left to right wind.
Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee This hole will break your heart unless you hit the right shot every time. The tee shot is tough, the second shot is tough and the approach (presuming you aren’t there in two) is just as tough with two awesome bunkers waiting to grab your ball.
From The Fairway Sixteen would be more at home in Stackstown than Kildare! It is a monster of a par five with a fairway sloping left to right. Bunkers on the right and plantation on the left encouraging you yet again to play right.

Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee Then you walk across to the frightening, challenging, mesmerising seventeenth.
From The Fairway A par three played over the lake with carry all the way unless you want to be remembered as the coward who played down the right.
On The Green I played a seven iron the first time I played here and a three wood the last time. The wind will scare the pants off you if it is blowing.
Hole 18
Hole Name
From The Tee And finally, the eighteenth hole. From the back tees it measures 590 yards. There is water for about 400 yards on the left that should not cause too much concern if you can drive it straight.
From The Fairway There is a large fairway that should set you up for an uphill second or third, depending on which tees you are playing from.
On The Green The green is absolutely huge measuring almost fifty yards from front to back, split into three levels. A difficult finishing hole to a tough finishing stretch.
