left <strong>to</strong> right. For the brave, an accurate approach <strong>to</strong><br />
an island green will set you up for a possible eagle<br />
but for the timid, a short <strong>to</strong> mid iron short of the<br />
water will set up a pitch <strong>to</strong> the green.<br />
An aggressive golfer will be able <strong>to</strong> fly the bunker<br />
off the men’s tees on the 14 th with a driver, but the<br />
landing area is small. I advise playing a long iron or<br />
hybrid off the tee, this will then leave a short iron in, a<br />
birdie is achievable.<br />
Over on the Whistling Thorn course, the 5 th<br />
hole should be played with a long iron or hybrid<br />
from the tee <strong>to</strong> leave you short of the massive water<br />
hazard protecting the green. This leaves you with an<br />
intimidating second shot over the water <strong>to</strong> a small<br />
and narrow green.<br />
On the 9 th , a great finishing par four stroke 1,<br />
requires a straight and precise tee shot that will<br />
land you about 150 m out from the green. If you do<br />
manage <strong>to</strong> hit the green in two, you will land on the<br />
undulating green where a two putt par will be a great<br />
finish <strong>to</strong> this fantastic nine hole Jack Nicklaus course.<br />
