Front 9 | Back 9
Hole 1 – 140m
The opening hole is a short downhill Par 3, however don’t be fooled into thinking this is an easy start to your round. The fairway is a narrow tree lined chute of tall imposing Eucalypts that catch any wayward balls. The fairway widens and opens up at the 100 metre mark with a flatter landing zone from 120 metre mark to the Green. The Green runs back to front with a ridge down the middle. There are large drop off’s back & left and right there are hollows. This design was to look like an upside down koala
Hole 2 – 372m
From the tee you are faced with a drive of 200 metres just to make the corner of this right dog leg hole. Once you are at the corner you are faced with an uphill second shot to the green. With large swales right and left and a hollow middle left you’r approach shot on the green may not be as easy as expected.
Hole 3 – 148m
The third hole is a medium length Par 3. You’r tee is through a narrow chute of trees that opens wider towards the green. One of the higher points on the course – so take note of wind direction. Danger does exist if you go long, as Out of Bounds lurks just behind the green.
Hole 4 – 366m
A medium length Par 4 that bends slightly left to right, feeding down a slight slope to the green. Ideally suited to the right hander with a fade off the tee. You will be greeted with a generous wide undulating fairway, land your tee shot middle left to provide yourself with the best angle into the green.
Hole 5 – 374m
This hole is a large left to right dogleg, with the right side of the fairway protected with bush land and towering gums. Don’t go long here as any mistimed shots may run into the substantial dam situated 15 metres behind the green. The putting surface runs dramatically from right to left with a small mound to help hold your ball from going long on the right tier. This green is a two tier green right & left so your approach shot will dictate how easy your putt will be.
Hole 6 – 491m
The first of only two Par 5s on the course. The hole meanders from right to left over a slight rise from the black makers your landing zone is unsighted, ideally land left middle as ball’s will feed down to the right providing an unobstructed view of the flag. The tree lined fairway is generous in its width however narrows at 100 metres from the green before opening up again. The green is long and narrow with hollows up the right side.
Hole 7 – 386m
Another par 4 with a dog leg left to right. Your drive will want to be middle left as not to bring the line of tall gum tree into play on the right hand side. This green has a swale down the left hand side with a drop off the back of the green.
Hole 8 – 304m
This par 4 gives you a choice off the tee for long hitters. Playing generally with a cross wind from the right, it will be drivable for front pins as it is down hill to the green. A well placed drive will be beneficial short as there is a large swale at the front of the green and the green is the largest on the course. With three tier’s sloping front to back and large hollows and mounds down the left a close second shot will make putting easier.
Hole 9 – 335m
One of the most beautifully crafted holes on the course. From the Tee, the fairway turns right to left then strides up the slope to the green. The right side of the fairway is heavily wooded; any errant shot in there will cost you dearly. The drive ideally will be shaped with a draw for the right handed golfer; with plenty of choice on club selection – many favour a three wood or hybrid for position off the Tee. Allow another club for your second as the slope can be deceiving. Landing short will feed your ball back down the fairway. Remember large hollows down the left and trees back and right are close to the green.
