Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee Risk and reward choices are presented from the very first tee
From The Fairway Conservative players should aim tee shots to where the fairway is widest and flattest leaving a 160 yard approach.
On The Green The green is set below the level of the fairway shortening the distance by at least one club.

Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee A three shot par 5 for all but the longest of hitters due to the very large trees that guard the entrance to this green.
From The Fairway The further left your tee shot may open up the gap to the green but most players would be better served hitting up the centre of the expansive fairway and then playing a mid-iron to their preferred pitching distance. The caddies will suggest aim at a banana tree in the distance but anything left of this is also fine.

Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee A precise iron shot to a virtually Island green set over a wasteland of eroded ridges and gullies formed from years of storm water run-off over tin mine tailings. Take note of the distance to the front and make sure you get over the wasteland as balls are often lost or plugged in here.

Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee Another par 5 that is a genuine test and only the longest hitters will be able to reach the green in 2.
From The Fairway The only real danger here is with the tee shot missing the fairway so the safest play is a fade into the generous fairway and hit your second to your favourite pitching distance.

Hole Name
From The Tee The first of 2 very demanding Par 4’s. A straight drive here avoiding the tree that encroaches onto the left side of
From The Fairway the fairway will yield more run as anything off to the right should still find the fairway but is likely to pitch onto an upslope severely affecting distance

Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee Length and accuracy are required to navigate this tee shot as
From The Fairway the fairway is split in 2 by a bunker with heavy rough around the edges. From the tee it looks as if the bunker is sitting left of the fairway bit there is plenty of room to the left of it and this line is preferred as longer hitters may get more roll if they carry the rise and the rough on this side is preferred over the right side of the fairway. Any drive leaked to the right will result in a lo

Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee A great par 4 to start the back nine demands a long tee shot to take advantage of the downhill slope and gain some extra run.
From The Fairway For the safe play the fairway is 70 yards wide at 150 yards from the front.

Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee A swale of rough sits in the middle of this fairway with the left hand side being significantly lower than the right.
From The Fairway
On The Green The play here is to the right of the swale providing a much easier shot to one of the course’s smallest greens with a false front that is 8 yards onto the green rendering the green size only 23 yards deep.

Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee From an elevated tee, the ideal line is at the tree for all but the longest hitters as
From The Fairway the fairway narrows considerably the more you chew off. Be very diligent on choosing the correct line and distance from this tee as the fairway is severely angled from the men’s tees.

Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee Considered by many to be the best par 4 on the course, the 13th requires a well-placed drive and a quality second to yield par.

Hole 14

Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee The 16th tee is the highest point of any golf course in Phuket and some 100 yards higher than the 14th green
From The Fairway
On The Green The hole is drivable for some, but the green and approach are very narrow. With its diagonal angle and deep bunker in front, this green is better approached with a full swing.

Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee Red Mountain’s most photographed hole and one that also varies in length from many tee and hole location combinations can mean an actual yardage very different from the scorecard. If you have slope assist on your rangefinder turn it on!

Hole 18
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Although narrow, fairway contours forgive slightly errant shots. The landing area plateaus and then drops off steeply beyond the single pot bunker left, rewarding those who can reach beyond this point with 40 extra yards of roll.
