The first hole- Arnotts- Named after Leslie Arnott, a member who used it as a landing strip for his Tiger Moth back in the "Roaring Twenties". It was then the second hole of the old nine hole course and was played in the opposite direction to today's first. It should be a two shot hole to the green for the average golfer who can hit a straight ball ?? The out of bounds on the left will punish a hooked shot and the clump of trees on the right can be a problem. The direction of the approach shot is critical as there is a long bunker protecting the right of the green.
