HOLE 1 | High Hopes
Tough opening hole - avoiding bunkers left and right off the tee a must! An iron approach to the middle right of the green, go too far left and you’re in the brook.

HOLE 2 | The Wallet
Tricky hole over a water hazard to a difficult green. Always hit one more club than you think as hole always plays longer than the yardage.

HOLE 3 | Jim's Billabong
Short par 4, so driver not essential off the tee. Another 2nd shot that plays over water and longer than the yardage to a difficult green that has run offs on all sides. A par 4 is a good score here.

HOLE 4 | Boggart's Hole
A tee shot over the yellow post tight to the big tree on the left should put you in the middle of the fairway that dog legs left, followed by an approach shot slightly downhill. Better to be short than long here.

HOLE 5 | Lightning Creek
A tough driving hole with the ditch snaking down the right side. Good course management needed as playing left will leave a longer approach to a tricky green. A well earned par 4 is a great score here.

HOLE 6 | The Hiding Hole
Generally the easiest of the four par 5’s on the course. The longer hitters need to be mindful off the tee with the ditch running across the fairway. Keep approach shot to the left as everything runs to bunkers on the right

HOLE 9 | Cromwell's Table
Dog leg left, generous fairway to a wide but shallow green over the brook. Club selection has to be spot on as bunkers await an over hit approach shot, while not enough club and you’re in the brook.

HOLE 10 | Hallowed Ground
A very tough start to the back nine. Drive needs to be just left of the fairway bunker to give you a good view of the green. Keep second shot left of the green, approaches lost to the right will leave a very tricky pitch over the bunker.
