Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Long hitters have the option to attempt to carry the cluster of bunkers on the left side, opening up a very short pitch to the green, but the more prudent tee shot might be a three wood just in front of the fairway bunkers.

Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway In fact, there are at least three good options for the tee shot on the shortest par 4 on the course, but the stage for the round has been set.
On The Green Golfers will see plenty of sand during this adventure, and they will have to use their heads constantly in order to avoid being trapped. The green here is relatively small and tightly bunkered so precision is the key at #2.

Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway The massive bunker in the middle plays as the only hazard to contend with from the tee, here the lower marker can either choose to take it on or lay up short; this can leave a strategic choice for the second shot.

Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway The hole is nearly straight away and plays slightly downhill, so it is a good chance for a birdie for those with accurate iron play if they are not too distracted by the beautiful backdrop of the tidal wetlands.

Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway The green is well bunkered on the left side, so a draw is favoured for most pin positions. Only the back right pin placement invites a fade approach.

Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway The bunker placement in the landing area presents an intimidating picture, but there is in reality plenty of fairway to receive the tee shot off to the right.
On The Green The line of the second shot must be carefully considered, however, as the bunker on the right side is well short of the green and offers a difficult recovery. For many golfers a little humility in selecting a safe bogey route may be the best strategy.

Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway The prevailing breeze is slightly across the line of flight and will have a tendency to knock lofted shots down and to the right of the green.
On The Green Best way to go is to aim for the middle of the green if the pin is back left.
