Hole 2
Hole Name Smiths
From The Tee
From The Fairway Drive left of centre on fairway if pin I on the right,
On The Green otherwise centre is fine. A good birdie chance, but watch the slope up the back right of the green.
Hole 3
Hole Name Ridge
From The Tee There is a large driving zone on top of the plateau,
From The Fairway
On The Green but the second shot is very important. The narrow gap between the poplars must be negotiated leaving a simple chip to the long green. Wayward second shots will pay the price.
Hole 4
Hole Name River
From The Tee A long par three with rough surrounding the green,.
From The Fairway
On The Green This is a straight forward hole, but because of its length, not always an easy three.
Hole 5

From The Fairway
On The Green This is a good hole with plenty of trees both sides all the way to the hole, and a well bunkered green.
Hole 6
Hole Name Willows
From The Tee This dog leg right requires a good drive up the hill just left of the poplars.
From The Fairway
On The Green Too far left leaves a second shot dicing with the willows by the green, and anywhere right has no second shot to the green.
Hole 7
Hole Name Mannering's

Hole 8
Hole Name Shirley's

From The Fairway
On The Green which should concede some birdies, The bunker short right of the green, makes the green look a little closer than it really is.
Hole 9
Hole Name Waiohiki
From The Tee It is out of bounds right, all the way to the green.
From The Fairway The second shot should be placed to the left side of the fairway to get a good angle at the large two tiered green.
On The Green It is important to be on the correct level of the green to avoid any putting prO-Blems.
Hole 10
Hole Name Crosse's
From The Tee This dog left right has a very large and very sloping green.
From The Fairway The second shot is better on the right side of the fairway, so that you are playing straight up the slope of the green.
On The Green There is more green up the back than first appears. Putting is very important on this hole. If the pin is in the front of the green the up hill putt is much preferred
Hole 11
Hole Name Bunker
From The Tee This hole is aptly named.
From The Fairway
On The Green The long green is well guarded by bunkers at the front and both sides. Club selection is very important as this hole varies greatly with wind conditions.
Hole 12
Hole Name Oasis
From The Tee This dog leg left offers a birdie chance for the longer hitters.
From The Fairway The drive should be down the left side but beware if you get too far left. A group of trees will block out your second shot making a much harder hole. If the pin is back left, your second shot must be kept to the right side of the fairway, because a slop by the left hand bunker will kick your approach shot to the right.

Hole 13
Hole Name Terrace
From The Tee This is a difficult driving hole.
From The Fairway
On The Green Many players will opt for a short drive, as the out of bounds and trees really come in to play off the tee. The bank will also make the ball run towards the fence. The second shot is very deceptive as the green is not visible from down the bank.
Hole 14
Hole Name Return
From The Tee This dog leg right can be made very easy with the long fade.
From The Fairway
On The Green Do not drive short right, as the bunker guarding the front right of the green makes for a difficult second. This is a very long green with a small tier in the middle, so once again club selection is important.
Hole 15
Hole Name Kurupo's
From The Tee This is a straightaway Par 3 with a semi hog-backed
From The Fairway
On The Green green. Slightly left or right means an awkward little chip up the bank out of the rough. The wind also comes into play on this hole.
Hole 16
Hole Name Pah
From The Tee The drive with a little draw on it shortens this hole considerably.
From The Fairway
On The Green The green is sloping from back to front with bunkers on either side. You can have some awkward chips if your second misses the green.
Hole 17
Hole Name Junction
From The Tee This is another good birdie chance,.
From The Fairway It is out of bounds down the right all the way, which always catches a few, but otherwise not a lot of trouble on this hole.
On The Green
Hole 18
Hole Name Nirae's
From The Tee The dog leg left means it is easy to drive out of bounds on this hole.
From The Fairway
On The Green Often the second shot is played from an undulating lie, making it a little difficult. There is a small ridge on the right side of the green which enables a tight pin placement on the back right hand side of the green.
