11: Dardanelles
Par 5 S.I. 2
A 551 yard par 5 that has been rightly described as one of the most difficult par 5 holes in Europe. The drive must be hit accurately across a shallow valley to a rising fairway that narrows and curves to the left, between woods over the brow of a hill. If the fairway is found off the tee, the second shot will be played through the gap between the woods, often using the distant war memorial as the line, otherwise a lay up between the woods may be the only option. Having negotiated the shot between the woods the approach will be taken from a sloping fairway some 150 yards or so from the green. The green, guarded by front bunkers, has some subtle borrows to keep the player wary.
Stornoway Golf Club gratefully acknowledges the sponsorship of the 11th hole “Dardanelles” this year by:
What a beautiful evening they had for the final Junior & Ladies Monday sessions that have been ongoing every week since April 👏🏻
What better way to finish with a mini Greenkeepers revenge Scramble for a bit of fun and team bonding on the course 🤩
Well done to the winning team of Thomas, Lucas, Kyle, Aria and guest appearance from Millie ⛳️🏆
A big thanks to the Greenkeeping staff for the help throughout the season and the great conditions of the course, despite the challenging weather, all the volunteer coaches & helpers throughout the season and the members who were understanding on a Monday as the Juniors & Ladies took over the bottom of the course for a couple of hours.
A few of our Juniors had other commitments on Monday but plenty of promising talent on show over the season from you all, thank you for all your hard work and turning up in all seasons 🌧️ 💨 ☀️⛳️💪👏🏻
I started playing golf there a long time ago under the guidance of George Hampton. A great facility and wonderful opportunity for these young people.
It’s great to see juniors and ladies playing golf - keep it up! (I’ll cheer you all on from the sidelines 😉)
Our special today is loaded chips!
Chips with mozzarella, beef brisket, stuffing and peppercorn sauce 😍🤤
Our soup is leek and potato!
