Hole 4

DD : Hole 4 ; The hole is flanked on the left by native woodland and crossed perpendicular to the line of play toward the approach area. The hole is characterised by a large swale that runs across the fairway in the landing area that gives the player a sloping lie on their approach. The green is framed by a collection of large specimen trees that provide an great setting for the green. The green falls away stepply at the front and is flanked by bunkers both left and right that visually squeezes the entrance to the green.

The player may try and carry the swale in the fairway by hitting 250yds over the first left bunker, however anything short will hit into the face of that swale and run back into a uncertain lie and a longer approach shot. Too far right and the player will kick into the longer rough down the slope and their line may become blocked out to the green by trees.

The green slopes towards the player and is two tiered and when the pin is at the back it will prove difficult to get the ball all the way back to the hole, this effect will be exagerrated by the false front on the green.
