Hole 5

Medal Metres: 148 Society Metres: 119 Ladies Metres: 119
Index 11 Par 3 Index 11 Par 3 Index 15 Par 3

One of the nicest par three holes you are ever likely to come across. The elevated tee box gives you a birds eye view of the green. Be warned, too long and you're gone, left or right and you're gone and too short and you're not going to make your par. Add to this the water, short and on the left and the bunkers all around the green - combine all these and you have a testing par three hole.

This beautiful green is slightly raised and is protected on three sides (the ones that matter - front, left and right) by very deep bunkers. Over-club and you have a wall and out of bounds to contend with.

The high index of this par three tells nothing of its hazards.
