Here's a few holes
to water your mouth with. From the elevated first tee you can get
the feel of this course, lush fairways and good greens. This course
will remain one course you will always wish to return to. The 4th
is a par 3 of 163 meters, not long, but is probably one of the holes
you will always remember. From the tee you have to negotiate a small
lake with an imposing solitary pine tree, marring the view to the
green. Just past the tree is one of three bunkers guarding the green,
club selection is paramount along with a good steady shot.
On the 8th tee
you will appreciate why this par 4 is given it´s stroke index
1 tag. From the tee you look into the distance from a very tight tee
down the hill, then up hill to the green with the fairway sloping
to the left all the way to the green. Fairway bunkers and pine greens
on both sides of the fairway make this hole very difficult on the
best of days, make a 5 and it will feel like a birdie.
As you try and
decide which club to take from the 10th tee, try and force your self
into 1 more club, as a short shot leaves you with a blind recovery
shot to the green. From the elevated tee you look over a deep ravine
to an elevated green, a short hole but take care, you must be on the
green with your tee shot. Out of bounds to the left and trees to the
right makes this hole one of the most difficult par 3's on the course.
