The
final hole of the front nine is elegantly defined by bunkering along both
sides of the fairway which runs back to the Clubhouse. A glimpse of water
right of the tee, a garden bed extending along the top of the mound beyond
the lake and a fine view of the Clubhouse present a pretty picture. In contrast
to previous holes, the ninth is seemingly flatter but there is still enough
subtle undulation in the fairway to hide two pot bunkers on the length of
a good drive. From either it takes something special to salvage par. They
are to the left of the middle fairway bunker,
on a line with the chimney on the front corner of the Clubhouse.
