Welcome to Lansil Golf Course

Below you will find out more about our course and you can even watch a fly over of each hole along with the stoke index and par’s for each hole,

Hole 1

Tip for hole 1

The first hole has the longest green on the course at 38 yards. Make sure you take enough club when the pin is towards the back

Hole 2

Tip for hole 2

The 2nd hole is widely regarded as one of the best par 5s in the area. Accuracy is required at all points to reach the green in regulation. Straying too far to the right hand side can leave you blocked out by trees and the fairway tends to be softer on that side.

Hole 3

Tip for hole 3

The 3rd hole rises by around 30 feet from tee to green. The green has two levels and slopes severely from back to front. A 20’ uphill putt is always preferable to a 5’ downhiller. The sheltered tee means it can be tricky to judge the wind direction and strength. Take these factors into account when choosing your club and type of shot.

Hole 4

Tip for hole 4

A fairway bunker sits just in front of the mound that is just short of the green and creates some “dead ground” making it easy to misjudge the approach and come up short. Calculate the distance to the centre of the green and play your shot accordingly. Centre of the green always gives a one-putt opportunity.

Hole 5

Tip for hole 5

The 5th hole is one of the most challenging short holes in the area and a par 3 is always an excellent result. Never be too disappointed to come away with a 4. The length of the hole, angle from the tee and a prevailing westerly wind make it particularly difficult to hit the green. It’s far better to miss on the right than on the left, where you risk the lateral water hazard, trees, bushes and heavy rough.

Hole 6

Tip for hole 6

A tee shot to the centre right of the fairway gives the best line in for most pin positions. Going left off the tee can leave a tricky approach over the left hand bunker and the risk of running off the green down the hill

Hole 7

Tip for hole 7

A downhill approach to the green from 100 to 150 yards can be a club less than you’d normally need. If it’s soft underfoot your ball will stop quickly on the front half of the green, so be prepared to fly it all the way to the pin.

Hole 8

Tip for hole 8

A deceptively simple looking hole from the tee. With the ground falling away steeply on three sides, you will certainly be faced with a tricky pitch or chip if you miss the putting surface. As with many of the other holes, hitting the centre of the green is good and will always give the opportunity of a single putt

Hole 9

Tip for hole 9

The tee shot is all important on the 9th hole. A long, straight drive clearing the depression will usually run down the hill and make for a much simpler approach. If you are faced with a long approach or playing from the right hand side, the percentage shot is to aim to the right and use the slope to run down on to the green.

Hole 10

Tip for hole 10

The 10th hole has the longest green on the course at 38 yards. Make sure you take enough club when the pin is towards the back

Hole 11

Tip for hole 11

The 11th hole is widely regarded as one of the best par 5s in the area. Accuracy is required at all points to reach the green in regulation. Straying too far to the right hand side can leave you blocked out by trees and the fairway tends to be softer on that side.

Hole 12

Tip for hole 12

The 12th Hole rises from tee to green by around 80 feet The low sheltered tee means it can be tricky to judge the wind direction and strength with trouble behind and to the left of the green, not to mention a penalty area just beyond the path. Take these factors into account when choosing your club and shot type.

Hole 13

Tip for hole 13

A fairway bunker sits just in front of the mound that is just short of the green and creates some “dead ground” making it easy to misjudge the approach and come up short.
