FRONT 9
HOLE 1 (PAR 4)
|
A testing starting hole. Keep it in play to the right and avoid the bunker. Very fast green so make sure you are below the hole.
|
|
HOLE 2 (PAR 4)
|
Tree lined par four with out of bounds on the left. A good drive down the middle will ensure a fairly short iron to a large green. Make sure to avoid the bunker short right.
|
|
HOLE 3 (PAR 3)
|
Short par three over the creek. Ensure you have enough club or else you could roll back into the water. Always a challenging hole especially with a bit of breeze.
|
|
hole 4 (PAR 4)
|
Straight par four. Try to avoid the trees on the right as they will obstruct your second shot. The out of bounds on the left makes this a real tester.
|
|
hole 5 (PAR 4)
|
Try to place your drive to the right from the tee. The fairway slopes to the left and your ball could run into the trees. Large green that always feeds the ball from right to left.
|
|
hole 6 (PAR 5)
|
The first par five and a good drive on the right side of the fairway is the ideal spot. A good second shot can get you on the green or very close. Always a tricky green so ensure you are below the hole.
|
|
hole 7 (PAR 4)
|
Once again make sure you avoid the trees or else you will not have a shot at the green. A very expansive green so ensure that you get on the right level to ensure an easier putt. A severe slope to the left of the green must be avoided.
|
|
hole 8 (PAR 4)
|
Another long par four. This hole is a must to hit the fairway if you want to make par. A good drive will see you hitting a mid to long iron for your second. The green is a large one that can have some tricky pin placements.
|
|
hole 9 (PAR 3)
|
This is the longest of the par threes. The well placed bunker on the left must be avoided. A good tee shot will always be rewarded with a birdie chance on this hole. Don't go long as the creek is waiting at the back of the green.
|
|
BACK 9
HOLE 10 (PAR 4)
|
A severe dog leg to the right with the creek running all along the fairway. Make sure you keep it a bit left. The small green can ususally be hit with a short iron to ensure a birdie or a par opportunity.
|
|
HOLE 11 (PAR 3)
|
A testing par three, with the creek down the right side. You also have to ensure that you avoid the bunkers on the left and right. Always a tricky one but a good shot to the green will give you a chance for a birdie on par.
|
|
Hole 12 (PAR 5)
|
Dogleg to the right par 5. Avoid the trees on the right as this will make your second shot very difficult. A reachable par five in two will reward two good shots with a good chance for a birdie. Avoid the bunkers left and right.
|
|
HOLE 13 (PAR 5)
|
This par five will need a good tee shot placed to the left of centre. Your second shot must avoid the bunkers that are placed 60 meters from the green. This two tier green is a tricky one, so ensure that you get your ball on the right level.
|
|
HOLE 14 (PAR 4)
|
A sloping fairway from left to right will test your tee shot. Ensure you avoid the trees on the right as this makes the second shot very difficult. The second shot to the green is an uphill one so ensure you have enough club.
|
|
HOLE 15 (PAR 4)
|
This short par 4 needs an accurate tee shot to avoid the two fairway bunkers. A short second shot to a raised green will test your ability to ensure your par.
|
|
hole 16 (PAR 4)
|
This par four is a dogleg to the right and you must ensure that you keep your tee shot to the left centre of the fairway. A bunker also guards the right side. Don't be long with your second as the out of bounds is looming down the back of the green.
|
|
hole 17 (PAR 3)
|
A very testing par three. You must avoid the creek and the trees on the left so ensure you aim a bit right. This par three will always be a tester when the wind blows a bit. This is a "take your par hole and move on!"
|
|
hole 18 (PAR 4)
A good par four that leaves you with a second shot over the creek, and back to the clubhouse. Ensure your tee shot avoids the big gum tree on the right. A good drive down the right centre will ensure a mid to short iron to the green. Avoid the creek on the right with your second shot. Be aware of the bunkers on the left and right. A testing second shot so ensure you finish your round on a high note!
