Feel what it''s like to play the first three holes against the wind in an easterly wind and then from hole 4 in the other direction with the wind at your back and the clubhouse in view, before then in quick succession on holes 8 and 9 next to the direction also the wind turns again.
It goes without saying that the west wind, which is also a common wind direction on our island, is exactly the opposite.
Enter our new pot bunker on hole 3 via a set of stairs and test your bunker game from a low position. Do you try a high pass to our green on hole 6, which is quite fast in summer, or do you prefer the flat pass so that the ball does not roll off the green on the other side?
Putt on our hole 8 onto the upper green plateau and almost as far as the dyke, which is located directly behind the green to protect the island
A links course has nothing to do with an indication of the direction, i.e. nothing to do with left or right. It designates a certain type of golf course. A links course is traditionally located on the stretch of coast between the sea or beach and the first agricultural areas inland and is characterized by a barren landscape that was previously used for cattle breeding.
This definition applies particularly to the seacoasts of Scotland, where the game of golf had its beginnings on courses in exposed locations with natural terrain and frequently changing wind and weather conditions.
A links course is natural and is on undulating, sandy ground with no or very few trees. Hills and dunes, deep pot bunkers and naturally left high or thick rough and greens with occasional different heights are other typical features.
The soil is sandy and the whole area, where a links golf course is located, is essentially natural dune landscape.
