Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole 1 is the longest par-5 on the course.
From The Fairway The preferred drive is down the left-hand side to allow room to negotiate around the dogleg right. The premium position to approach the green is from the left side of the fairway, which will take the front bunker out of play. The positioning of the tee shot is all-important.
On The Green The preferred drive is down the left-hand side to allow room to negotiate around the dogleg right. The premium position to approach the green is from the left side of the fairway, which will take the front bunker out of play. The positioning of the tee shot is all-important.
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee The preferred tee shot is at the left-hand side bunker.

On The Green The right side is the best location to approach the green. Keep your approach to the pin below the hole.
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee While not a long hole from the white tees,
From The Fairway beware of the out-of-bounds area on the left, from the right side of the path. The preferred tee shot leaves you short of the fairway bunker on the left but not too long to hit
On The Green the undulating green which is protected by a bunker on the right and a slope to the path and out-of-bounds on the left.
Hole 4
Hole Name

Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee The contour at the tee shot landing area
From The Fairway
On The Green will take the ball left, particularly in summer when drier conditions come into play. Longer hitters should consider an iron off the tee, leaving a short iron to the green. The distance for the second shot can be deceptive. Players may wish to allow for one extra club.
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole 6 is a testing par-4
From The Fairway
On The Green that demands a reasonably long and well-placed tee shot. Any drive short and left will be on the path of the large pine tree guarding the corner. Any approach landing over the green will be in trouble. It is out-of-bounds along the contours right to left.
Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee One of the more difficult par-3 holes on the course,
From The Fairway
On The Green the front bunkers to the left and right will catch any slightly off-line shot. The green slopes from the back to the front. Take plenty of club to ensure you reach the green.
Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole 8 is one of the shorter par-4s.
From The Fairway
On The Green You have an option of taking on the bunkers or laying up for the approach. The ground falls away to the left and rear of the green, with the green sloping from back to front. Be aware of the greenside bunker on your approach.
Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee To finish off the first nine, this is a very demanding par-4.
From The Fairway The preferred tee shot is right of the fairway to allow for the right to the left slope of the fairway.
On The Green Be sure to note where the flag is on what is a long and narrow green. Adjust your club selection accordingly. A tee shot into the left rough could make par difficult.
