The second hole still gives the impression of safety and openness. Again a wide fairway with generous amounts of ground on either side, yet what the player notices immediately is how far away the green seems to be.
With the prevailing wind blowing directly against the drive, a decent drive and good long iron are required to reach the putting surface. It may seem to the unwary that the drive need not be straight but for the unhappy player that slices the ball out to the right, there waits an unwelcome demonstration of just how tall the beech trees, guarding the right-hand-side of the fairway, are.
Another ancient stone is tucked away below the massive copper beech on the right of the fairway. A granite corn-grinding stone is set into the ground and was used until the land was converted into a golf course as a drinking trough for grazing sheep. Don’t worry, you have a free drop from the stone if needs be.
