17.01.2022 Pro Tip: The Coffin (4th Hole) Flinders’ best-known hole, designed in 1926 by Dr Alistair Mackenzie. On Navy training days cannon fire provides an additional hazard. Risk and reward personified here. Almost as if the flag is waving at you enticing you to have a go. It’s dead left and long and there’s also 2 coffins to contend with. One is 150 metres from the tee which swallows any mishit tee shots and the other just before the green to swallow mishit approaches. Both offer unpredictable lies. Leave the Superman cloak in the bag, play safe and don’t leave yourself a downhill putt. Golf Professional Josh Shaw: The longer hitters will be tempted to have a go at the green, but slightly off and you can forget about a par. Safely play a long iron or wood short of the second coffin. Approach shot below the hole and try to make your putt.

11.01.2022 We know our Pathway to Golf Program is great, but it's even better when you get feedback confirming it. Check out these amazing testimonials from some of our past graduates. I couldn’t have a found a better way to be introduced to golf. I had always wanted to try the game, coming from a family a golfers, but not had the opportunity. Pathways was perfect way to learn skills and develop more skills and friendships. Looking forward to my times on the course. Suzie Wakefield ...The Pathways Program was amazing and so much fun. It made me feel very welcome at FGC right from day one. The emphasis was always to enjoy ourselves. There was no pressure to join the Club but our group did join and now play together every week socially. Sue Slater What a great program, after being ‘talked’ into it by my husband, I am now a happy golfer playing regularly. We were so welcomed by everyone involved in the Pathway program and at the Flinders Gold Club. Even now, long after we finished, the team are still making sure our golf participation is an enjoyable experience. I highly recommend this program even if you have never considered playing golf but, watch out, you will get hooked! Deb Lever More testimonials and information about the program is available via the link below. Our next intake commences in March 2021. https://www.flindersgolfclub.com.au//new-pathway-to-golf-/

07.01.2022 Pro Tip: Beach Hole (5th Hole) The magnificent coastal view makes a loss of concentration a real danger. Played along the cliff top that borders the left hand side of the fairway, a good tee shot is required to avoid strategically placed bunkers on both sides of the fairway. Longer hitters can attack the green with their second shot however a ‘3 pack’ of grass bunkers at front calls for the strategic play. A wayward slice will be punished by a cluster of green side traps. Rea...chable Par 5 all dependent on the tee shot. Tight driving hole with OOB on left side and lots of fairway bunkers to catch your ball. Take time to enjoy the view on your left hand side. Josh Shaw, Golf Professional: First of only two par 5’s with the long hitters being able to reach the green in two from the fairway. Tee shot needs to find the fairway with OOB left and trees and bunkers on the right. Bunkers protect the green so if you can’t reach in two best to lay up about 100m from the green to best set up the approach shot.
