No.1 Fort George -
331 Yards Par 4

Takes it name from the 18th century barracks
across the Chanonry narrows to the left which
form a magnetic  attraction for many a drive.

No.2 The Dyke -
412 Yards Par 4

A stone dyke once dissected this fairway, and
often a low hit ball would strike the dyke and
end up behind the player. Whins and beach
await any stray shot to the left. Par is a relief
for the low handicapper and celebrated as a
birdie by many.

Hole 2

No.3 The Cup -
314 Yards Par 4

Takes its name from the original third hole which
played to a "bowl", still a feature of the fourth
fairway. The semi plateau and hog-backed green
is deceptively treacherous
.

No.4 Lighthouse -
455 Yards Par 5

The Chanonry Lighthouse stands directly behind
the sloping green but woe betide the player who
use it as his line until maybe playing his third shot.
A classic links hole.

Hole 4

No.5 Icehouse -
132 Yards Par 3

The shortest hole on the course but even for the best
of players can be anything from a wedge to a wood
according to the strength and direction of the wind.
The out of bounds grounds of the old icehouse
threaten the stray drive over the Point Road.

No.6 Rosehaugh -
469 Yards Par 5

Named in memory of the Club's founder patron whose
summer bungalow stood behind the ladies tee.
With beach to the left and whins on the right the drive
must be well struck
.

No.7 Ormond Hill-
309 Yards Par 4

Named after the hillside behind the village of Avoch
visible to the left. Another hole deceptively short but
well bunkered and trickily greened.

No.8 Chanonry -
389 Yards Par 4

Trouble for the drive that ignores the dog leg with
whins and bunkers waiting on the left.

No.9 The Ness-
196Yards Par 3

Named after the former farm land. The last hole to
be incorporated into the present course.
One of the few holes threatened by out of bounds
of the tee. Can vary from a short iron to a full wood
according to wind direction
.
