 Hole
1
The fairway is very wide for the opening shot.
For the long hitter, the tree comes into play and
must be negotiated.
Keep the second shot to the right.
The green is split level so be accurate with approach. |
 |
|
Hole
2
Sharp dogleg right, You’ll run out
of fairway unless your tee shot
is a fade or hit over the right side bunkers. Lots
of trouble to the right of trees.
A three wood is probably the right choice on the
tee. |
 |
|
Hole
3
A narrow fairway that gets tighter the longer the
tee shot.
Keep the ball left on the drive. Lots of room if
you miss the green,
but watch out for the crevice short right. |
 |
|
Hole
4
Length of this hole is deceiving.
Take out an extra club if you’re undecided.
Avoid the Balinese walls to the right at all cost. |
 |
|
Hole
5
Hit it long and hit it straight.
Tee shot must be at least to the crest of the hill
to have a view of
the green which is down at the bottom of the draw.
Careful on the second shot that you keep your head
down. |
 |
|
Hole
6
Club selection is all important here.
.don’t let the view distract you.
Any shots hit right are dead..bailout is all left.
Golfers hitting to the wrong side of this green
are in for a surprise.
|
 |
|
Hole
7
Length is important. Fairway funnels most shots
to the middle,
so let it rip. Second shot should be kept left,
otherwise the approach is an extreme challenge.
Right side of green falls away at rear,
so bear that in mind if approaching from the right.
|
 |
|
Hole
8
The most challenging hole on the front nine.
Length off the tee is important because the green
is 3 tiered and,
again, tends to fall away.
Consider a bump and run from the right front
of the green instead of going for the pin with a
middle to long iron.
|
 |
|
Hole
9
Deceptive hole which looks a lot harder than it
really is. Only the extreme long hitter can reach
the water off the tee. Ideal tee shot is to the
left of the fairway. Club selection and execution
is paramount for the green approach. Land it softly,
as the green is surrounded by water.
|
 |
|
Hole
10
The safe shot is to the middle of the fairway, but
that leaves a tough approach over a deep bunker.
If possible, keep the tee shot to the right and
even carry the right side bunker for an easier approach.
|
 |
|
Hole
11
Designed to be an opportunity hole, the green is
reachable in two with a decent drive down the middle.
Don’t go right with the second shot as the
lake will pull you toward it. Don’t go too
far left or third shot can be tricky coming back
toward the lake. Green is deep but has definite
birdie potential.
|
 |
|
Hole
12
Gauge the distance and hit boldly. Balls hit over
the green will produce some difficult recovery shots.
|
 |
|
Hole
13
“safe” shot to the right
of the fairway will result in a blind second shot.
The bunker on the left can be carried with a huge
tee shot, but the penalty is serve for being short.
Approach the green from any angle you choose, but
be careful of the right side..a big surprise awaits
you there.
|
 |
|
Hole
14
Tee shot must be down the middle. Green is nestled
down in a low valley and shots tend to carry on
this hole.
|
 |
|
Hole
15
Length is deceiving here. Green is farther away
than it looks. Very important to be on the correct
level of the green if you want any chance to two-putt.
|
 |
|
Hole
16
Designed to be the toughest on the course. A slight
draw is necessary to cut the dogleg on this monster
hole. If you don’t think you can reach the
green in two, we strongly advise you to lay up left.
(You have been officially forewarned).
|
 |
|
Hole
17
If the breeze is in your face, this medium length
par four can be a real terror. Fairway is wide;
but looks narrow, with trouble on both sides. Club
selection and type of shot into the green will be
the challenge here. Wind will hold up any shot hit
high.
|
 |
|
Hole
18
Don’t let water intimidate you. (Or the sand
to the left). Flirt with the lake for a more open
shot to the green. The green is accommodating except
for that one doggone bunker which will catch any
shots hit short. And don’t forget the water
to the right and behind the green.
