The first used to be our hardest hole but after it was shortened to a par 4 I'd day it's now the 8th.
Par 4, 478/468 white/yellow tee.
There's a ditch halfway which is 260 yards to carry from the whites so only the long hitters can get over that. There's also a very tall tree left of centre that catches a lot of tee shots, especially those of faders.
There's a ditch running up the right hand side which is OB but this needs a really wild shot to go in.
So most club players will drive short of the ditch to leave a second of around 220 yards to the front of the green if they've hit a good tee shot.
There are two bunkers waiting at around 160 yards but none around the green, there is a large drop off to the right of the green and for 100 yards before it.
Most people get nowhere close after 2 shots.

That’s a brute of a hole, to long for me can’t be much fun playing that
