Romanby Golf and Country Club - The front Nine Holes


		A pleasant, simple hole to start the round. The drive is directed through the large banks and ideally should be left of the centre line to leave a more open shot into the green. The second shot should only require a short iron to the kidney-shaped green. Sponsored by: John Smiths

		The first of the water holes. The drive is uphill to a ridge, with a bunker guarding the left side of the fairway. The second shot, must cross the lake to a large and receptive green, with mounding to the rear and left hand sides. Sponsored by: Carillion PME Engineering

		After the loosening up process of the first two holes, the third hole requires two long, well struck shots. The drive is slightly uphill to a ridge and then falls away sharply towards the hole. The second shot is to a slightly elevated green, guarded by two bunkers. Sponsored by: Quinn Radiators

		This hole is uphill all the way so plays its full yardage. The green is long and comparatively narrow and is guarded by three bunkers - front left, middle right and back centre. Sponsored by: Cleveland Conservatories Ltd

		From the elevated tee the hole snakes down past a lake on the right and up to a well guarded green with a narrow approach. Big hitters can reach in two, but a high degree of accuracy is required. The third shot has to negotiate two bunkers guarding the front left of a relatively small green. Sponsored by: Towergate

		A subtle, shortish par 4, which uses the natural contours to good effect. There are two bunkers to negotiate on the drive. The ideal drive is down the left, which will open up the kidney-shaped green, guarded by the bunker from hell. Sponsored by: Par 4 Irrigation Ltd

		The green is situated downhill from the high tee, but has a severe slope on the front half and to the left. There is an out of bounds behind the well mounded rear of the green. Sponsored by: 3M

		A pleasant, natural hole where club selection is critical. The green is situated in an elevated position, with a steep fall on the front and left, and is guarded by two large bunkers in front and middle right. Sponsored by: AV Dawson

		A muscular 3 shotter which requires accurate shot making. The drive should end on a flat, slightly elevated island fairway. The second shot has to cross a narrowish constriction, formed by the river and the road. The third shot leads into a slightly elevated, rectangular, undulating green set in a natural amphitheatre.
