Steeply sloping green means that those who overshoot rarely get down in pitch and puff. IF the greenside bunkers are negotiated. Double green with 15th allows a 'bail-out' area at the back encouraging many to play a club more than it looks. River to the left is OOB and trees and bunkers await a shot off the right side of the fairway. Long second shot must be accurate with a large bunker to the right and a steep run off to the left.
Deep bunkers lie in wait off the fairway to the right.
One of the most demanding par 3 shots in the North East. There is more room up the right hand side than it looks from the tee. Green well guarded with the bunkers to right and left and large trees lie off the back. Using a club more than it looks is often beneficial here. Only par 5 on the course and a hole fraught with danger.
