The best birdie chance of the opening four holes. A good drive will leave a short pitch to the green however many locals opt for a long iron off the tee to the wider part of the fairway, fearful of out of bounds and trees tight left. The green is well guarded by a steep faced bunker and the green features some challenging borrows.
Hole 5, Meiklehope, Par 4
Accuracy off the tee is key. The fairway slopes left to right with the best line up the left-hand side, which is also the most dangerous with OB on the left. A good tee-shot leaves a short iron approach to a generous green, which slopes left to right so keep left for tee shot and approach and use the contours to your advantage.
