The Oaks Golf Centre

The water is nearer the tee than the green. Ignore it.

All carry. Choose the club that clears it twice.

Downhill, the ball stays up longer than feels right.

Short holes punish greed first.

Anything timid rolls back down to say hello.

Running one in through the front is the percentage play.

Half a club less, and let the hill do the rest.

A wood from the tee is not a confession. Take it.

Fly it all the way in. There is no running route.

A wedge, a firm heart, and no peeking.

Long leaves the harder chip. Believe the number.

Pick a spot on the green and mean it.

The bank forgives nothing. Land it on top.

One good swing. That is the whole assignment.

Sand on every side. The green is the only safe place.

Par walks off this tee less often than it should.

Swing at eighty per cent. The yardage is honest.

The wind does more up here than the trees admit.

The miss is short here. It is nearly always short.

Centre of the green, every day of the week.

Good players aim away from the pin here. Be one.
