A brief description of the holes

The opening hole with out of bounds down both the left and right requires an accurate tee shot, with the green protected by a bunker on the front left hand corner and also behind the green at the right, just to catch both under and over clubbed shots.
All that you see from the tee will be the top of the flag, beware!! You will have the option to either fly the ball in all the way or "punch and run" it in. The green is guarded by a bunker on the front left hand side and by a severe slope behind - up and down from there will prove difficult.
A long thin green where clubbing can vary dependent upon the pin placement. Again you can either fly the ball in or run it in off the bank on the right but don't go left as the slope will take you further away from the green.
The longest and most difficult hole. Out of bounds all the way up the right hand and with a bunker on the right of the green means that a slice is not the shot. With the hole playing slightly uphill the shot will be mostly all carry.
A tee shot which requires the ball to fly all the way or risk being caught in the front greenside bunker. Whatever the yardage of the day says, add on another two clubs to ensure that you get there.
Bunkers on either side of the entrance to the green make sure that an accurate shot is essential. The copse to the right of the green will catch many a sliced shot and an over hit shot will leave you with a very difficult up and down.
The shortest hole but still a potential card wrecker. The option will be to either fly the ball in or try to run it in off the bank on the right - beware - a bunker awaits up the right for the under hit tee shot.
A short uphill hole with a deceptively long green, where an under clubbed shot will either leave you in sand or with an exceptionally long putt.
Nearly home, but concentration is needed to eliminate the forty feet of green by good club selection, beware not to miss the green on the left as the bank will kick the ball away from the green and getting up and down will prove very difficult.
