THE COURSE

Hole 1 - Give consideration to the ditch from the tee. The first shot must be long enough to carry over the two bunkers. If the pin is near the back of the green make sure you make the top tier or a three putt is likely.

Hole 2 - Straightforward tee shot, but consult the yardages for a deceptive second shot. Out of bounds at the back.

Hole 3 - Difficult par 3 with a lot of dead ground between the ridge and front of the green. Well guarded with bunkers.

Hole 4 - Right side of the fairway is preferred for drive, approach shot must be accurate to elevated green. Be short not long!

Hole 5 - Excellent par 3. Small target needs accurate shot. It's considered a sin to miss to the left!

Hole 6 - Needs a straight or slightly right side tee shot. Second shot is to a big green, but anything left goes left.

Hole 7 - Good tee shot to carry the ridge. Accurate approach to avoid the bunkers. Careful reading of green required.

Hole 8 - Decide on a line from the tee to avoid the bunkers down the left. Big wide green usually needs one club more. Severe kick and drop off the back left edge possible.

Hole 9 - Downhill partly blind par 3. Any shot short will run on but must avoid the bunkers right and left.

Hole 10 - Straightforward tee shot. If you drive down the hill, consult the yardages to the green. If not, watch the fairway bunker on the left on your second.

Hole 11 - Sheltered tee. Beware any wind out there. What way was it blowing? Prevailing wind pushes the ball right. Elevated green, but the ball can be chased on up slope. Watch out for the nasty pot bunker short and right of the green.

Hole 12 - Dog leg left. Favour the right side with the drive. Check your yardage for approach. Another hole where you do not want to be big!

Hole 13 - Par 3 where anything played short will break right. Do not go left. Not only will you be out of bounds; you will be in the Dee!

Hole 14 - Short par 4. Central position more important than distance off the tee. Difficult approach due to uneven terrain in front and around green. A high, soft landing approach on to the green will be best. Wherever the pin a shot to the centre of the green will give the chance of a birdie.

Hole 15 - OB all the way down left. Avoid fairway bunkers on drive. Generous, wide green, though. Anything short of the green centre will stop quickly. Anything long will probably run through.

Hole 16 - Drive down the middle avoiding bunkers right and left. Big green, but well guarded with bunkers which you should be sure to clear.

Hole 17 - Elevated tee shot very exposed to any cross wind. A bit deceptive with some dead ground short of green so trust the yardage.

Hole 18 - Left of centre drive favours a more open approach as this large green is guarded with mounds and bunkers on the right. Beware OB left, though.
