Our 8th can be over 200 off the back tees, up a steepish hill, with 3 bunkers protecting the front of a tiered green that slopes continually from back to front. The green is huge, and 4 putts are quite easily accumulated if you read the pace and line wrong.
I know Rick Shiels likes to proclaim the 17th at the JCB as the hardest in the world, but I’m sure this hole must be just as difficult to make par on.
And if that’s not bad enough, the 4th is 240 off the back tees, and the 16th about 220.
Obviously this pattern is maintained on the par 4’s and 5’s…..
