The Hole:
The idyllic setting in a quiet corner of the course belies the toughness of the tee shot which shouts "don't go right, or you'll struggle to find your ball on the heavily wooded slope". Once the fairway is found, you're faced with a shot to the raised green where two guarding bunkers shouldn't present too many problems.

Pro's Advice:
A nice driving hole, so nice in fact, some people have two or three goes at it. The right hand side must be avoided to save any distress, but after that there are not too many problems.

Member's Advice:
The tee shot is the toughest part of this hole, as you drive down a shoot of trees to a beautifully lush fairway. The second shot is to the elevated green, so check your distances, but this is a wonderful golf hole - providing it isn't you that ends up in the trees to the right of the fairway!

For the Ladies:
The tee shot is not nearly as difficult as the mens, but requires some care. The 16th green and bunkers are directly in front of you and can be intimidating for the faint hearted. For the longer hitters the trees on the right can catch a slice. Too far left and you are either in the large conifers or down the bank by the 15th. The shot to the green is deceptive - it takes one more club than you think due to the elevation of the green, however if you are too long and over the back, then you have little chance of getting up and down!
