As the Index of the second hole (2) indicates, this hole is a
difficult up hill hole. Although a good drive will set you up for a good approach shot,
there are many hazards to consider when driving. On the left, there is dense trees dont
get caught here! On the right, there are pockets of trees which will capture the long and
slightly wayward driver.Your approach shot will have to be good as this 373 metre hole
will punish the wayward. The elevated green is surrounded by steep banks and any error
will certainly cost you a shot if not two.
Even when you get to the putting surface, the pin position can be extremely difficult.
Although the favoured pin position is to the front, this position is deadly. Downhill
putts can often be seen traveling off the green.
