Hole 4 is a relatively straight uphill par 4, with a small green, while hole 5 has a steep drop and a steep rise which can prove challenging for golfers who take 5 shots down the fairway like Harry, Daniel and Tim!

Thank you all for your generosity, we’re getting closer to our goal!

Hole 2 at Yass is a par 3 that is more deceiving than it looks! A small green makes it hard to hit! Tim may be a chance at a bogey on this hole!

Hole 3 is an uphill par 4, that can be reached from the tee boxes by the longer drivers! Matthew may look to attack this hole, while the rest of us will settle for any score under 8!

Our host club for The Longest Day is Yass Golf Club, the course is steep hilled 5,193m, with challenging greens, making our Longest Day a massive challenge.

Hole one is a short uphill par 4 with an intimidating shot off the tee in front of the clubhouse. The slight dog leg up to a sloping green makes this a challenging hole for the team, but a possible birdie chance for Matthew
