Anders,

I think this is the 6th at Kingsley Club, regardless, I do like the way the cart path blends into the bunkering scheme.

Ok. I tried to make ballyneal and kingsley tougher by using pictures taken from another hole and still they were guessed first.

5. Is Kingsley 6th taken from just off 4th tee. Loved the 6th by the way.
2. Is ballyneal 5th taken from the rough just left of the 6th. I had a couple of porential picture clues from ballyneal i would have Liked to have posted but i guess that course is too hard to disguise.

7. NOT RCD,

10. Is 2nd at Carnoustie

12. Is 13th at crail Balcomie, pretty intimidating par three especially for the Ladies (picture is taken from tee directly towards the green.

8. 3rd at Crandon

6. The very aptly-named 'Sunnybraes' (#12 Lundin Links)
The White River runs dark through the heart of the Town,
Washed the people coal-black from the hole in the ground.

As per Tony, 1. is the 6th green at North Berwick.

7. Is the 8th green at Portrush

3. The back bunker on the 11th/7th green at the Old Course, St. Andrews
2011 highlights- Royal Aberdeen, Loch Lomond, Moray Old, NGLA (always a pleasure), Muirfield Village, Saucon Valley, watching the new holes coming along at The Renaissance Club.

The hole in the background on the right hand side of the North Berwick picture is the 12th (red flag) Once upon a time the 6th and 12th used to share the same green.  In fact the 6th was a par 4 and not a par 3 back then, with the teeing area being situated near Engine Cottage, which is the wee Ginger Bread type house on the outside corner of the dogleg of what is now the 5th hole.

The infamous 13th hole used to be much shorter at around 270 I think, with the tee being just the other side of the 6th green shown in the picture.

12 green is my favourite spot on the course, not necessarily the best hole out there but my favourite.  To be fair the whole back 9 is awesome in my mind.

Thanks for the info Simon, what green did they share? As i remember, would be a massive green compared to the rest if the current Greens were Cut As one.
