Pro’s Tip
One of Oxfordshire’s most challenging par 4’s. A good accurate tee shot is required down the right side of the fairway the aim line should be at the bridge from the tee. The second shot plays significantly uphill so be prepared to take one extra club.

Hole Nine
- Par 5
- Yards 559
- Stroke Index 11

Pro’s Tip
Longer hitters will view this as a good birdie opportunity as the green can be reached with two good shots. Shorter hitters will have to strategically play this par 5 as bunkers are in play for both the tee shot and the second shot.

Hole Ten
- Par 5
- Yards 556
- Stroke Index 8

Pro’s Tip
The Longest Par 5 on the Golf Course. A good tee shot down the left hand side will open up the hole. Bunkers positioned left and right must be negotiated for the lay-up. Do not miss this green long as there are sharp run offs.

Hole Eleven

Pro’s Tip
The start of what is known as OGC “Amen Corner”. This beautiful looking par 4 plays downhill and requires an accurate drive. The approach shot also plays downhill however be sure to take enough club to avoid the brook that guards the front of the green.

Hole Twelve
- Par 3
- Yards 196
- Stroke Index 10

Pro’s Tip
This picturesque Par 3 was once described by Henry Longhurst “as one of the best holes in English Golf”. A good tee shot must be aimed to the right side of the green to allow the contours to feed the ball back to the hole location. The green slopes significantly from right to left.

Hole Thirteen
- Par 4
- Yards 382
- Stroke Index 6

Pro’s Tip
This fabulous looking hole that doglegs sharply from left to right requires a well-positioned drive which needs to carry the Lye valley. The longer hitters can cut off more off the corner to set up a short second and a birdie opportunity.

Hole Fourteen
- Par 4
- Yards 317
- Stroke Index 16

Pro’s Tip
A great risk reward short par 4 where the longer hitters may be tempted to drive the green. For the more conservative play, a long iron or fairway wood will set up a short approach.

Hole Fifteen
- Par 3
- Yards 201
- Stroke Index 14

Pro’s Tip
Another great par 3 which is well guarded left and right by bunkers and run off areas. The perfect tee shot will be played to the right side of the green allowing the ball to gather to the hole on this kidney shaped green.

Hole Sixteen
- Par 4
- Yards 410
- Stroke Index 2

Pro’s Tip
A challenging par 4 that requires a good drive just inside the left hand bunker as the lay of the land slopes from left to right. A good drive will still leave a tough approach to green which sits above you protected by a false front and a greenside bunker front right. A 4 is a great score here!

Hole Seventeen
- Par 3
- Yards 144
- Stroke Index 18

Pro’s Tip
The last Par 3 at OGC is played across a valley to a very challenging green. Club selection once again is vital in order to find the putting surface, failure to do so will provide a tricky up and down for your par save.

Hole Eighteen
- Par 5
- Yards 472
- Stroke Index 12

Pro’s Tip
The finishing hole at OGC is a risk reward Par 5 where longer hitters will be looking to get home in two. An accurate drive must be positioned on the right side of the fairway to allow a shot to the green. The green is guarded front, back and to the right by water so playing to the left side of the green is important here for your approach.
