HOLE 3

An elevated tee gives a view of the top of the flag on this 462m par 5 with a wide landing area. A drive just on the upslope of the landing area provides the opportunity to shoot the green in two for big hitters, but beware the blind green. For shorter hitters, a good view of the green and the position of the pin for a third shot can be obtained from the right-hand side of the fairway just by the marker tree. The green has an interesting slope on the right-hand side and the back of the green is elevated, and behind is the penalty area. Pro’s Tip: A long straight drive is essential to attempt the green in two. A long or mid iron from the tee will set up a modest third shot to attack the pin. Danger Zone: The out-of-bounds area to the right of the landing area captures the sliced drive, and the prevailing wind takes the ball over into the houses. Don’t be long on the approach shot, or a ball in the penalty area will be the reward.
