Don’t be distracted by the beauty of Ballygally Bay because this hole requires total concentration. It is a difficult hole in its own right and marks the beginning of Cairndhu’s own “Amen Corner”. The tee shot is one of the hardest on the course with trees and rough on both sides and a fairway that slopes left to right. The second shot is not much easier as anything short will bounce away to the right. The only good news is that there is a gathering bank to the left and at the back of the green. The putting surface slopes from back to front and from left to right.

Pro's Tip: Don’t be afraid to hit something other than a driver here. If you hit a fairway wood or a long iron straight use it, hitting the fairway is very important on this hole.
