1 The first hole at Hartford has the most forgiving fairway. A
nice wide landing area sets up a chance of reaching the elevated green
in two, as long as
the big hitters miss the pond on the right at 260 yards. The further
left however brings into play the big oak near the green on the left.
Played sensibly this is a nice forgiving 470 yard par 5?

The second hole is the first of the great par 3,s. This hole is 170
yards up hill into the prevailing wind, with a sheltered tee, take
plenty of club! Once you get to the green, avoiding the out of bounds
down the right, you will find a 60m long 3 tiered monster. Miss it right
or left leaves a very difficult chip.
3 The par 5
500 yards 3rd is
Hartford’s most difficult hole. Although the
views over Northwich and to the pennies are pleasant, what waits off the
tee is not. With out of bounds off the tee down the right, a good tee
shot will leave you with a slim chance of taking on the green in two. Be
aware if the long valley in front of you, the woods all downs the left,
and the two tiered green at the end. If you still have a good card in
your hand enjoys the next few holes.
