Hole Seventeen
Par 3,Stroke Index 15
“An accurate tee shot is needed to carry onto the long, narrow, sloping green. Favour the right side as any ball missing left will run into a deep depression and leave a difficult recovery to find the putting surface”.
The final Par 3 is arguably the most straight forward, but is still protected on all sides by hazards. As with the other Par 3’s left is the worst place to miss the green. The green is long and slopes steeply right to left.
