Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year from all of us at Kirkby Valley Golf Club! 🎄
We can’t wait to see you back out on the course with your new clubs and Christmas gear! 🏌🏽♂️
The 4th Hole is a 429 yard par 4 off the white tees and is also the hardest hole on the course at stroke index 1.
Off the tee you are faced with a hard dogleg to the right but you’ll be in trouble if you go too far offline as the whole right hand side of the fairway is out of bounds… and with trees lining the left hand side of the hole, accuracy is key!
The green is also protected by two pot bunkers making the approach shot to the small green extremely difficult.
Walking off with a par will feel like a birdie!
Despite being only 337 yards off the white tees, the 3rd hole at Kirkby Valley is a tricky one for all as it’s important to hit the fairway from the tee as it’s out of bounds down the right hand side of the fairway.
When looking to get on in two, it’s key to not miss short or right as water hazards protect the green.
Here’s how Matt Wilson birdied the Par 5 second hole at Kirkby Valley Golf Club
Shot 1: A great drive just into the first cut of rough on the left hand side of the fairway.
Shot 2: 8 iron to just off the back of the green.
Shot 3: Long eagle putt to 2 feet.
Shot 4: Tap in birdie. ⛳️
How do you normally get on when playing the second hole?

☀️ Sunny mornings out on the course >
The second hole at Kirkby Valley Golf Club is the first of three par 5s on the course at a respectable yardage of 556 off the white tees.
If you’ve hit the fairway with a good shot off the tee, you’ve got a chance of reaching the green in two.
If you’re laying up, make sure not to go long upon approach as there’s a hidden pond beyond the green which has seen more than its fair share of golf balls!

One of our Greenskeepers Ken Fitzgibbon was surprised last week while working on the golf course with his dream car & £15,000 cash after entering an online raffle for £1.38! 🤯
Well done Ken, we’re all made up as you really deserve it and we’re not at all jealous!
Here’s one way to make par on the 350 yard Par 4 first hole at KVGC as demonstrated by Matt Wilson!
Shot 1: Drive the green (what a shot)
Shot 2: Putt to 8 feet (first putt of the day so not bad)
Shot 3: Lipped out birdie putt
Shot 4: Tap in par ⛳️
How do you normally get on when playing the first hole?
The first hole at Kirkby Valley is a straight forward par 4 (drive-able for some of the bigger hitters) with out of bounds all the way up the left hand side of the fairway. With a large bunker at the back of the green, short is best upon approach!
