Johnny Doo - 276 yards Par 4
The opening drive is a long up hill shot. The longer
hitter will hope to make the brow of the hill, but most
will have to settle for a position on the slop leaving a
short blind second with a bunker to the right hand side
of the green. |

Monument - 149 yards Par 3
A well guarded green with three bunkers to the front
and right and a bank of rough to the rear. Club selection
is all important as over played shots will put you into
the rough behind the green which is treacherous. |

Chain Road - 407 yards Par 4
This hole, a slight dog leg normally plays the longest
hole on the course as it is usually played against prevailing
breeze. A good drive just to the left of centre opens up
the green which is guarded by 5 bunkers mainly on the right. |

Magazine - 292 yards Par 4
A short par 4 where a straight tee shot will pay dividends.
Beware of hitting your tee shot too far and becoming blocked
out by the various buildings and wall. No easy puts on this
very undulating green. |

Rockies - 245 yards Par 3
Voted the toughest par 3 in the UK by Today's Golfer
in September 2007 this is definitely a card wrecker. From
the elevated tee you must hit the ball onto the small fairway
which is guarded on the right by a steep gorse and rough
bank and on the left by the firth of forth which is out
of bounds.
The more adventurous golfer can go for the green but a knowe
that obscures half of the green makes this an extremely
difficult and high risk shot. Best results are achieved
by playing it as a par 4. |

Cuniger - 128 yards Par 3
A wide but narrow elevated green with a gorse banking
surrounding the back of the green requires an accurate
shot with a short iron. Miss the green here and you are
left with a tricky chip. |

|
Valley - 200 yards Par 3
The seventh green is like a smaller version of the first with a
30ft hill and rough to the left and an awkward green to hit.
Club selection can be difficult, therefore take one more than you
think. |

East Neuk - 410 yards Par 4
This hole was re-shaped and lengthened at the end of
2008 and is now the longest hole on the course. The line
off the tee is the monument - accuracy from the tee will
pay dividends as 5 fairway bunkers will capture a wayward
tee shot. The green whilst being flat is guarded by 4 bunkers.
An excellent par 4. |

The Hynd - 238 yards Par 3
The final hole plays down hill towards the first tee
and is generally down wind. This hole is not as straight
forward as it seems with its length and wall behind the
green being its main defences. |
