Played from the Men's Intermediate Tee

From the elevated tee the long hitter surveys a classic 'risk versus reward' challenge with the heroic carry over the corner of the lake presenting a real opportunity.  The conservative player might hit a driver and a mid iron to this green whereas a successful shot over the corner of the lake might yield a nine iron pitch and a birdie opportunity. It might also yield a watery grave for the ball pulled or drawn a little too far left!  The best value drive is left of centre towards to the edge of the lake (and not too long) for the best angle in to this green which slopes from right to left. The green presents a very difficult target from the wide open spaces of the right hand side of the fairway with the right hand green side bunker to be carried and a steep slope running off the left hand side of the green to carry away the ball which is long or played with a draw. The player who can draw a tee shot around the curve of the lake has a real advantage as has the player who can fade the shot into the green.
