1St

The hole goes out of bounds of the original course. It was build together with hole No.3 in 1978 according to a happy architectional proposal by Doc.Ing.Ivan Rais,CSc. The hole descends slightly to the Tepla creek, which flows around the back side of green. The green is protected by a water hazard from the left and front side, by a deep bunker from the right side. There is an out of bounds behind the green. The green has two levels. It is accessible by the second shot in case your drive was very good. But it will not catch a flat second shot.

This hole was built also in 1978. There is an out of bound along the left side of fairway. There is a grove to the right of the place of imapact of first shot. The fairway tapers to almost 20m.

The fairway forms a dogleg to the left. There is a forest on the left side in the distance of first shot, which disables view to the green. There is a water hazard and a bunker on the right side in the same distance. Most of players select iron for the first shot, green is then easily accessible because of its spaciousness.

5th

Relatively long par 4, especially against strong west-to-east wind you would need two perfect shots to reach green. Left side is bordered by out of bounds. There are two shallow bunkers in the place of drive impact. Fairway is then crossed by asphalt road. Green is spacious and has an open entrance. There is only one green bunker on the right side. There are three smaller shallow bunkers a bit farther on the left.

6th

Very appealing hole, dogleg to the left, ascends slowly to the green. Fairway is crossed by a brook in the place of drive impact. Players usually select shorter shot not to reach the brook, only long-hitters shoot over it. The access to green is protected by several bukers, the entrance is narrow. Fairway is bordered by forest from both sides, there is also out of bounds on the left. The green has been redesigned and reconstructed before the 2003 season. The bunkers have been moved and a new water hazard has emerged behind the green.

Medium difficult par 3 in the sense of lenght. The tee shot is embarrassed additionally by a narrow look through the trees. Green is bordered by trees and out of bounds from the left. It is protected by three bunkers. It descends a bit from back to front.

8th

Easy, short par 3. Green is protected by two bunkers in the front side. There is a group of trees on the right, detached from green by a shallow ditch. Green is relatively narrow.
