1.
Quarryside
Par 4 | SI 12
With out of bounds on the left, always favour the right side with driver. Or play conservative with a lay up before the bunker and iron to the green.
2.
Bill Atkin’s Way
Par 3 | SI 6
With th bunkers surrounding the green, the centre of the green is your friend.
3.
Fordsway
Par 5 | SI 18
Always favour the right centre of the fairway and then it’s a no brainer to go for the green.
4.
The Cut
Par 4 | SI 2
9/10 this hole is a side wind or into wind, so hitting anywhere on this fairway gives you a chance of scoring.
Make sure to miss on the left of the fairway with an iron, but for the big hitters- give the green ago with a shot finishing slightly left of the pole.
5.
Nick Melvin’s Way
Par 4 | SI 14
‘The Devils Toenail’ upholds its reputation with either a wedge or 6 iron being hit depending on the conditions. Front centre of the green is the perfect place to miss to give yourself a putt.
6.
Devil’s Toenail
Par 3 | SI 4
This is a great risk and reward par 4, with driver in hand you can aim straight over the copes of trees on the right.
7.
Hobby’s Retreat
Par 4 | SI 8
8.
The Furrow
Par 5 | SI 16
Favouring the left side of this green and even the left bunker gives you the green to work with to give you chance of an up and down.
This hole requires any club that can reach the top of the slope to get the full view of the green and big hitters a great birdie chance if they hit down the hill.
9.
The Dell
Par 4 | SI 10
Possibly the hardest driving hole on the course which demands a slight draw off of the right-side bunker for the best chance of scoring.
10.
Old Bottles
Par 5 | SI 9
12.
Roger’s Place
Par 4 | SI 3
With water to carry off the tee and water left off the tee, this hole requires a slight draw off the tee finishing on the pole.
Just like the 2nd and 6th holes - the surrounding bunkers demand a centre of the green tee shot unless you’re feeling brave depending on the pin position.
11.
Red Shank
Par 3 | SI 15
With this being the hardest hole on the course and hazards surrounding the hole, just don’t miss long off the tee or into the green.
13.
Lakeside
Par 4 | SI 1
Another great risk and reward hole with the shorter hitters able to easily lay up short of water and the longer hitters going closer to the green for birdie over the water.
14.
Bridleway
Par 4 | SI 17
This shorter par 5 is the best scoring chance on the course for all players starting with a drive staying right of the left bunkers.
15.
The Summit
Par 5 | SI 13
Once you have hit the fairway - always miss the green short right to give yourself the best chance of an up and down.
16.
Poppy Bank
Par 4 | SI 7
18.
The Old Fort
Par 3 | SI 11
Use any club necessary to carry the water and front bunker to get you on the green.
A slightly left to right tee shot is required to take the long rough out of play on the left side, giving you a chance to tackle this green.
17.
Up or Down
Par 4 | SI 5
