The hill on the left side of the fairway and bunkers make for an
interesting tee shot. Find the landing area and players should have a
lofted club to the green. The low area short and to the right of the
green and small creek are bogey makers on what looks like an easy hole. |

The partially blind tee shot from out of the trees needs to
avoid the many sand traps for a chance at birdie. Water protects the
green again as does the reason why this nine is called Water Place, or
Birr. Again, find the landing area and you have a chance at birdie. |

The toughest hole on the Birr greets you as a long water lined
par five that narrows to the green. The narrow green is protected on
both side with water and is approachable from a small landing area. This
is a challenging golf hole. |

Following the toughest hole on the nine is the easiest
hole. This short par three Has trees, water and sand in play but a well
struck short iron should provide golfers with a chance at birdie. It's a
nice view on a challenging short par three golf hole. |

A dog leg right par four greets the golfer and is the only hole
on the nine that does not have any water on it. A well struck tee shot should
provide for a chance at an approach with your favorite mid iron, maybe even
wedge. It's a tough down hill shot to a green protected by plenty of
trees. |

Water protects the green on this tough dog leg left par five but
first you have to get your drive in position, big hitters can go too far or
have a difficult side hill lie. The sloping fairway rewards accuracy and
accuracy rewards golfers with a chance at an approach shot with a lofted
club. A nice, tough golf hole that can be birdied. |

This long sloping par four often plays in to the prevailing
winds making it play much longer then it already is. The left to right
angle of the fairway is accentuated as it gets closer to the ponds, helping to
gather errant shots. This is a good test of the golfers skill and one
that rewards controlled power. |

The small well protected putting surface makes any green ball
worth a "high five". Any ball off the green makes for a
difficult "up and down". The large sand trap and gathering
area that front the green are difficult to chip from especially with water
behind. Your first shot determines whether it's an easy hole or not. |

The tee shot once again is premium on the shorter par four dog
leg left. The pond, creek, barn, hills and sand are all in play from the
tee box. The tiered green is also protected with sand bunkers in front
and a tough slope and long grass behind it. Another nice finishing hole
no matter what point in your round you are in. |
