Hole 5 - 515 meters - Par 5
This
is the longest of the par 5's on the course. It is a dog leg hole to
the left. A boundary ditch runs the length of the hole on the left
side. There is a gentle step in the centre of the green.
Hole 11 - 390 meters - Par 4
This
hole provides splendid views of the town of Carrick-on-Suir while to
the west stands Slievenamon. The ideal tee shot is a gentle fade
feeding the ball down the left of center fairway. The approach shot is
to a green protected by a bunker to the right and a steep incline on
the left. The green has subtle borrows which require a carefully
lined-up putt.
Hole 12 - 390 meters - Par 4
This
hole requires great concentration and accuracy when teeing off. A fade
off the tee is ideal when trying to find the fairway. The green can be
tricky depending on pin placements but a par on this hole guarantees
satisfaction.
Hole 16 - 174 meters - Par 3
This a
challenging par 3 hole provides a breathtaking view of the Suir Valley
and Slievenamon. Club selection is vital as a ball through the green
could find deep rough and an unplayable lie. The tee shot needs to be
accurately hit to avoid a deep bunker on the left and a punishing slope
to the right.
Hole 18 - 352 meters - Par 4
This
is a tough finishing hole with accuracy off the tee a prerequisite when
hitting to a tight fairway with trees and water to the left and more
trouble on the right. The putting surface has gentle contours.
