18: Avenue
Par 3 S.I. 4
A 209 yard par 3 with out of bounds over a wall that lines the left of the hole. With the green positioned no more than 5 yards from the out of bounds on the left, the safe shot is played to the right of the green where the lie of the land will run a well struck long iron or wood down onto the green. Anything coming up short or slightly left of the best line may find its way up against the wall or in the greenside bunker protecting the front left corner of the green, leaving difficult shots if par is to be salvaged. With such dangerous out of bounds on this long par 3 it is no surprise to hear many woeful tales of cards destroyed on the 18th.

RNLI CHARITY STABLEFORD
Another fantastic turnout for a great charity 🥰 👏🏻⛳️
The weather was better than expected for parts of the day, the warmth must have encouraged the dozens of beautiful butterflies out in the bushes beside the ladies tee on the heather 😳, after checking with Liz, the bushes are called Budleia aka Butterfly bush, they were certainly living up to the name 🦋 🦋 🤩🤷🏻♀️
Apologies to DJ, who shot an amazing round of 63, which included 8 birdies 😳🤩 👏🏻 and 41 Stableford points only to be beaten by me with the same points 😅🤦🏻♀️😂. Not that it will make DJ feel any better but I was delighted to finally break 80 in Stornoway for the first time 🥳
I’ve probably peaked too soon but I’m sure DJ will continue his high standard of golf as we both head to Newmachar next week to play in our Scottish finals 🚔 ⛳️
It was a day of high scores with Robbie Ross and Iain McFee both also managing 40 points 👏🏻
In the Junior competition continuing the high scoring and another closely fought competition between the twins with Paige winning by 1 point on 39 points, her birdie on the 10th making the difference ⛳️👏🏻
While speaking of Juniors, it was brilliant on Friday to see 8 of the older Juniors out on the course in the afternoon playing in the nines format, an online competition they compete against The Isle of Skye golf club over 9 holes, just after they had started another 8 Juniors from the Nicolson turned up to play, so we had 16 playing out on the course at the same time, something which I’ve never seen at the club and very encouraging for the development and future of the club 🤩🥳⛳️👍
