The tenth hole, Collie Golf Club, from the tee

The 10th tee is directly in front of the putting practice green, which in turn is in front of the club house, ensuring an appreciative audience for errant tee shots. 

Kangaroos near the dogleg provide the occasional hazard!

However, it is more likely that trouble will be found through a hooked drive into thick rough, generally meaning at least another three shots to the green - or through a high slice off the tee, which may come to ground on the nearby 12th green.

The approach to the tenth green

The 10th is a relatively short but far from simple par 5, with a left hand dogleg half way down the fairway.

A good drive well to the right of centre will open up the second shot, although most players will find their second shot is a mid iron across the corner, leaving a mid iron approach to the undulating green.

Difficult sandy lies and trees close to the edge of the fairway penalise poor mid and approach shots, while the green is protected by four small bunkers to the left.

Of more concern, however, are approach shots which overshoot, leaving a difficult lob back to the downward sloping putting surface from hard packed lies behind the green.
