I went up to play North Wales this weekend. On the Saturday we played North Wales GC in about 4 degree temps and 25 mph winds. Let me tell you it was cold! The course is mainly non-descript save for a handful of holes. However, nothing prepared me for O.L. & L.O.! These are two super holes and back to back. They are both par 3s AND they cross. Old time golf indeed.
From the tee of O.L. A 145 yarder. L.O. tee on the left.
Behind O.L. green.
Not to be outdone, L.O. follows. This is truly a great par 3. T. Doak doesn't talk this hole up in his guide, but he should have. It is about 125, but I was hitting either 5 or 6 iron (I played these two holes four times each) from a well elevated tee.
Tee shot.
