9th, Par 4, 420 Yards, Hdcp 13
 
The feature most emphasised on the 9th hole when viewed from behind the green is how far the trees on the left project out into the fairway closer to the green. Many a player has hit a tee shot along the left-hand side of the dog-leg, only to find that the second shot is blocked by these trees which cannot be seen from the tee.

If the tee shot is kept to the right-side of the fairway, a relatively easy approach will result, although the steep front bunker hides the base of the pin. The bunkering on this hole was always severe enough, and wasn't altered by Mr. Jones.
