Golfer's Tip

This is the first of the Par 3s and presents a birdie opportunity if you can hit the green with your tee-shot. There is an avenue of trees to catch any wayward shots and a bunker at the front left and right hand sides of the green. Bushes are at the back of the green. The putting surface slopes from left to right and also there is a gentle slope from the back of the green down towards the front.
