From The Tee A pleasant start to your round with an early test, clearing the hedge. Big hitters may attempt the green, but a well positioned 3 wood leaves a short pitch into a green that is below you.

From The Tee The shortest par 3 here at RGC has an elevated green position with a two tier green. It is by no meanss no means a straight forward par 3.

From The Tee A short but demanding par 4 dogleg left. The elevated tee position helps you to visualise the shape of the hole where the slope will draw your shot left,leaving you with a pitch into the green. It's not the green you can see. That's the 14th.

From The Tee The first of 3 par fives here at RGC, a reasonably long and straight hole which for many will take at least three shots to reach the green.

From The Tee The prevailing winds can made this a good length par 3 early into your round. The green has a narrow entrance and is guarded by three bunkers.

From The Tee The narrow exit from the yellow and even more so white tee can be intimidating. Once through, there is an undulating fairway, with a long narrow green nestling into the slope.

From The Tee A tight hole with the railway perimeter fence a constant threat. A longer tee shot requires a tricky pitch from a sloping lie to an elevated green.
From The Tee The original James Braid hole, one of the hardest par 3s in the country from the White and Yellow' tees, but the easiest hole on the course from the Red, in theory.
From The Fairway A dog leg left with another difficult fairway to play from. The green is surrounded by a raised bank with a very narrow entrance. If you stray on to the 14th you are out of bounds.
From The Fairway A straight forward par 3 as you see it. A small cluster of trees guards the right side with a feature pond on the left. A ditch runs across the centre of the fairway with water problems to the left ( a pond) and to the right ( the brook)
From The Tee A great par 5 which crosses the river twice. The brook separating 15th from 4th is out of bounds all the way on the left of the 15th. A very tempting second shot awaits a longer hitter, if you hit a good tee shot. The brook runs just in front of the green.

From The Fairway This hole is deceptive. A good feeling drive can easily find strategic fairway bunkers. Also a sloping fairway can induce errant shots to the left where a copse of trees awaits..Avoid right off the tee, where the canal awaits the slice and try to leave a favoured iron into the green. Be careful not to overshoot as the slope will run away from you for your next shot.
From The Tee Very tough finishing hole which firstly requires a good carry off the tee to a dog leg right or a well judged lay up. A long blind second shot uphill to a narrow green guarded by two bunkers at the front. The hole is named 'Wrecker'.
