HOLE 5

Very little danger from the tee awaits this aptly named hole with an absence of penalty area or out of bounds. Three hollows or tomo one left, one middle, and one left on the upslope of a ridge can capture even a reasonably long drive. The approach shot from the tommos can have a variety of lies from around 120m to the green. Longer hitters will be able to clear the ridge, leaving a short flick to the green. A penalty area in the form of a pond will capture long approach shots. Pro’s Tip: Either clear the ridge or place the ball on the flat spot to the right-hand side of the fairway adjacent to the marker tree, about 165m from the tee. Danger Zone: An attempted long drive with a slice will be captured by the Norfolk Pine to the right or will nestle in the tomo. Don’t be long on the approach shot.. a watery grave awaits.
