The 1st has a rolling fairway away from the club house with out of bounds running down the left-hand side. A tee shot sent towards the imposing Black Rock to the right-hand side is a good line, but the undulating fairway can leave you a blind approach to the green. The approach shot is usually played from an awkward lie on even ground remember that the ball flight tends to match the contours of the ground. A large green with subtle slopes, but beware of thick rough surrounding the green.

“Play this hole sensibly, as a par 5, and you might reap the reward”
