Golf de Bégard
It has been an 18 hole course since 2011
 1st holeDrive straight on this first fairway to avoid the trees on the left and the water hazard (but be aware of the out of bounds on the right). Be careful on your approach to the downward sloping green. |  2nd holePlay for the middle of the green to give yourself a chance to miss the water hazard at the back of the green and the trees and ditch on the left. |  3rd holeDrive carefully to avoid the out of bounds on the right and ditch which runs the length of the fairway on the left. Aim for the middle of the fairway on your 2nd shot to make an easier 3rd shot approach to the green. |
|---|---|---|
 4th holeA reasonably easy hole. The choice of club will depend on the wind. |  5th holeIt is better to be long and right on this green to give you the chance of an uphill putt. There are bunkers to each side of the green. |  6th holeKeep left on the fairway to avoid the water obstacle which is in the middle of the fairway. The choice of club will determine your approach to the double plateau green. |
 7th holeInteresting green well defended by two bunkers. Wisdom is required to avoid a bogey. |  8th holeDo not play too long on this tee shot. To land on the fairway will be enough to prepare your approach to the green. |  9th holeThis is a dogleg right and to land on the left of the fairway will open up your approach to the green. |
 10th holeOn your tee shot, be aware of the out of bounds on your left. Do not go too long in order that you can play your 2nd shot on the flat, and then you will have a short 3rd shot into the green. |  11th holeKeep your tee shot away from the left of the fairway otherwise you will risk going into the woods. Be aware of the sloping fairway which will easily take your ball to the left. |  12th holeIn reality this is not a difficult par 3 hole. The green is very welcoming. |
 13th holeThe tee shot needs to be precise enough to miss the bunker (30m long by 15m wide) on the left of the fairway. Perhaps play short of the bunker |  14th holeA par 3 well defended by a bunker in front of the green. By playing to the right you will avoid a downhill putt but be aware of the woods on the right. |  15th holeOur ‘Amen Corner’!!!! On this par 4 dogleg left, it is necessary to think that a bogey is a good score. Leave your driver in the bag......3 shots with your 7 iron will do nicely. |
 16th holePlay this hole to the right to get a better view of the flag. Do not drive too short in order to avoid the stream and the bunker (the coquille shell). |  17th holeOn this par 4, do not drive too long as the out of bounds is awaiting you. |  18th holePerhaps your score card looks good until now. So, stay wise a little longer as this par 4 is formidable with an out of bounds the length of the fairway on the right, behind the green (roadway) and the whole of the driving range on the left. Stay in the middle of the fairway and a par will be within your reach. |
