Uphill hole with out of bounds (OB) on the left and danger of lying behind trees if you head too far off to the right, the pin is further than you think because of the uphill lie. Possibly one more club? Be aware of the greenside bunkers back left and on the right side. The green slopes from back to front, so being short of the pin will make your put a bit easier, but dont be scared to give the ball a solid roll.

The first Dogleg of the Devonvale Golf Course, this one is to the left hugging yet another OB area! Aiming towards the right will open up the green, leaving a brilliant opportunity to impress your fourball with your approach shot (but beware of the dams on the left and right joined together by a canal). The green is fairly large with slopes from either side.

A fairly challenging par 3 with water on the right that has a magnetic pull on your ball. You have been warned! There is a slight slope running from the right, but mainly on the right side of the green.

Uphill hole that runs around our main dam. A daring play would be to go over the dam wall on the left as this will leave you with a short approach shot into the green. More conservatively, head straight up the fairway and look out for the water on the right. The large green is relatively flat, but the challenge lies in keeping focused and not being distracted by the views of the clubhouse and beyond, across the dam.

A good drive will be rewarded by a long run on this down hill hole, also making your approach a little shorter, but one must make a choice under or over? With the lie of the land running downhill from right to left, your ball will have a tendency to run left. Tricky green, with lines running both ways!
Competition: 316 Men: 273 Ladies: 246 Seniors: 262
Originally a very long par 3 on a serious slope, it has now been levelled from earth taken from the dam when we increased its holding capacity in 2004. Big hitters can drive the green but must watch out for the hazard that runs on the left, almost the length of the fairway. The two-tier green will keep you humble!

The wind on this hole will determine your club selection; play for the centre of the green as there is real danger on the left just waiting for your ball and two pot bunkers on the right. Putting is fairly straight forward on this large green, so if you are on for one or two a birdie or par is a great breakfast meal as a reward in halfway house!

A great hole to bring out the driver! Nothing holding you back here now that the tree has gone so give it your best shot. Keep an eye on the vines (OB) on the right and the fairway bunker on the left. Don't be deceived by the level of the green.

Straight forward hole, but again there is OB on the right and a big tree on the left putting skill to the test for those who try to drive the green. A bunker lies in waiting for those who leave it short. Finally an easier green to read, there are on secrets here!
Distances (meters): Competition: 138 Men: 126 Ladies: 107 Seniors: 124
Very rewarding hole to birdie or even par, this green of the Devonvale Golf Course is well protected by bunkers, but likely not too deep! Don’t expect much movement on your putt, one ball here or one ball there.

Don't be intimidated by the stroke, instead play a soft draw to land in front of the drainage hazard that runs across the fairway. Try to play your approach shot short so that it runs on to the green as it is hard and fast. Speed is of the essence when putting.
Distances (meters): Competition: 347 Men: 323 Ladies: 291 Seniors: 313
Aim for the water hazard to avoid the fairway bunker on the left and taking the tree in front of the green out of play (check the distance to the water carefully!). A steep slope on the right of the green as well as a bunker should be attacked with care, take note of the pin placing.
Distances (meters): Competition: 224 Men: 208 Ladies: 188 Seniors: 202
A very long hole of the Devonvale Golf Course, so don't be shy to give it a good smack! The green is slightly elevated which helps to slow the ball, but the green is fairly small compared to others, and running off the back is not recommended! The green slopes from left to right but has little contours to take into account when putting.

One of the Devonvale Golf Course signature holes can be made easier by hugging the left tree to cut the corner, which will leave you in a good position to lay up to in front of the water hazard (take note of the two bunkers on each side of the fairway when laying up). An easy pitch or high iron over the water onto the green for a straight putt, no need to read too much into it.
Distances (meters): Competition: 383 Men: 355 Ladies: 254 Seniors: 321
Keep it together for the last hole of the day and drive your ball up the hill towards the right of the fairway to open up the green for your approach shot. The green is protected on the left and right with bunkers, but again don't look for too much movement from the green.
