Pro’s Tip

Beware of the pit to left when playing from this elevated tee.  The fairway is divided by the brook, and whilst shorter hitters prefer to lay up short of the brook, big hitters can go for the green (wind permitting).  Two fairway bunkers straddle the entrance to the green, and either of these will catch even the slightest pushed or pulled shot.  The putting surface slopes heavily front to back and is set in a deep basin. With the pin at the front, the greenkeeper can enjoy the tales of woe from members and visitors alike, as this seemingly easy hole does play harder than the stroke index suggests.
