|
|
HOLE 1 PAR 5 542 METRES A well placed drive will give the player a clear shot across Bulimba Creek to a narrow, tree lined fairway. A short iron to a long, narrow green should ensure an enjoyable start to your round of golf.
|
|
HOLE 2 PAR 341 4 METRES
This hole doglegs to the left with the change in direction well protected by three large bunkers.
|
|
HOLE 7 PAR 3 186 METRES A magnificent par 3, needing a long iron to a large, narrow green which is surrounded by out-of-bounds, bunkers and a lake. Many a good card has been destroyed here.
|
|
HOLE 6 PAR 4 366 METRES This fairway is dissected by a fig tree some 220 metres from the tee. A shot placed anywhere but to the left of the fairway leaves the player with a shot over large bunkers to a green sloping more bunkers and to the lake pictured on the front of your score card.
|
|
HOLE 5 PAR 4 407 METRES The longest par four on the course, which suggests a well placed, long tee shot to a heavily bunkered fairway. A long iron is then placed over a wide dam to a large sloping green bunkered on both sides.
|
|
HOLE 4 PAR 4 382 METRES A well hit drive between two large camphor laurel trees and drawing to the left of the fairway is a good start to this hole. The long iron or fairway wood needed to reach the putting surface must avoid the many hazards that surround this two tiered sloping green.
|
|
HOLE 3 PAR 3 162 METRES
Play a mid iron to a three-tiered green whose well placed greenside bunkers can trap the wayward shot. Pin placement can vary dramatically the degree of difficulty of this hole.
|
|
HOLE 10 PAR 4 386 METRES
To start the second nine on a good note keep your drive on the fairway and avoid the strategically placed bunkers about 250 metres from the tee. An accurate mid-iron to a long narrow green will avoid the bunkers and the sloping nature of the green surrounds.
|
|
HOLE 9 PAR 5 478 METRES To finish the front 9 the player needs two well played shots, the second of which must be long enough to carry the water hazard about 350 metres from the tee. A short iron to a large green which avoids the bunkers to the front and right should result in a comfortable par.
|
|
HOLE 8 PAR 4 398 METRES
A good driving hole playing into the prevailing wind and so requires a good tee shot to a fairway lined by large trees. The average player then needs a long iron or fairway wood to a tiered, sloping, heavily bunkered green.
|
|
HOLE 13 PAR 3 132 METRES
The easy par 3 hole protected by bunkers on three sides and guarded by water to the front and left of the green.
|
|
HOLE 12 PAR 4 305 METRES
A short hole which will reward the well placed tee shot and will leave but a short iron to undulating green, bunkered on three sides. A par, however, often becomes a bogey if there is any inaccuracy from the tee.
|
|
HOLE 11 PAR 5 457 METRES
A picturesque hole requiring a drive positioned to avoid the lateral hazard which runs the full length on the left of the hole. An accurate fairway wood or long iron to a generous fairway, will avoid
|
|
HOLE 16 PAR 4 302 METRES Straightway driving hole needing accuracy not distance from the tee. A short iron is all that is required to a large, generous green protected by bunkers on three sides.
|
|
HOLE 15 PAR 4 357 METRES From the tee, a shot with a slight fade, will keep your ball in the centre of this sloping fairway allowing play of just a short iron to a green that slopes from front to back. A hole that should see a par on the card but is unforgiving if your drive hooks behind the trees which define the left of this fairway.
|
|
HOLE 14 PAR 4 363 METRES
A real test of golf. Your drive needs to be to the left of the hole of the fairway to open up the longest green on the course to a mid-iron approach shot. Pin placement can change the choice of the iron used for the second shot by as many as three clubs. Three bunkers on the left and one on the right wait for your misplaced shots.
|
|
HOLE 18 PAR5 504 METRES
A good finishing hole that requires a long drive so positioned as to allow
|
|
HOLE 17 PAR 3 185 METRES
A par three hole that needs an accurate long iron to avoid the strategically placed bunkers surrounding this large tiered green. A wayward shot can see the ball disappear in the lake at the rear left of the green.
