Shelly Beach Golf Club

Shelly Beach Golf Club is located on the New South Wales Central Coast, and is situated at the eastern end of Shelly Beach Road, on the gentle undulating hills overlooking Shelly Beach, a leisurely 60 minute drive from Sydney.

"Tuggerah Lakes Golf Club is a hidden gem perched on the cliffs of the Pacific Ocean. The course starts off with a deceptively long slight dogleg par five and continues to challenge all levels of golfers from then on.

"The front nine winds its way close to the beach with eye-catching views whilst not being long accuracy off the tee is imperative if the local winds are up.

"Huge established trees line most fairways with lush soft fairways giving mostly perfect lies throughout the course with equally good true green.

Kooindah Waters is located only 90 minutes north of the Sydney CBD on the stunning Central Coast of NSW Wales and is the first collaboration between leading professional Craig Parry and respected course designer Ross Watson.

A component of a luxurious Residential Golf & Spa Resort and surrounding the first-class Clubhouse, is the 18-hole layout is dominated by the spectacular existing wetlands with the course designed to interact with the natural water features and flora.

Divided into three distinct character precincts, the course has been designed to be a “thinking golfer’s course” where accuracy, ball placement and imagination will be the keys to scoring well.

Sleeper retaining walls and bunkering are used to provide a “rustic” feel with a feature of the layout being the island green on the par 3, 17th hole.

Playing Tips

1
Par 5, Length 480m

A short walk of 60 to 70 metres from the Pro Shop passing the putting green on the way brings the golfer to the opening shot, the 10th tee is another 15 metres or so further on. The first is a solid opening hole playing in a southerly direction. Wetlands lurk on the right, however the fairway width is quite generous and pars should be readily achievable, a comfortable opening hole.

2
Par 3, Length 155m

Quite a challenging par 3 over wetlands but a large green and plenty of "bail out" to the left will keep the field moving which is so important at this stage of the game. Good players will be keen to attack this hole but must be careful not to "leak" to the right where wetlands await.

3
Par 4, Length 385m

A reasonably strong par 4 requiring a well struck tee shot preferably with right to left shape, long hitters may well run out of fairway without the right shape. The green is guarded on the right by a pond which also doubles as the irrigation pond. Approach shots directed to the left centre of the green with a slight "fade" will reap the best results. Pars here will be well earned.

4
Par 3, Length 165m

The feature of this hole is a large undulating green. The green is very open to the left and heavily bunkered on the right and the tendency will be to favour the left, but from here chipping and long range putting will be complicated by the undulations of the putting surface. This hole will be somewhat of a "sleeper", that is, looks easy enough but too often bogies will be scored.

5
Par 5, Length 485m

This hole will prove to be a very sporting Par 5. The key for many players being whether to "lay-up" or "fly" the watercourse crossing with their second shots. A lay-up will certainly put greater emphasis on the approach shot to a rather small green which angles abruptly to the left. Certainly long hitters will be hopeful of reaching the green in two and putting for an eagle.

6
Par 3, Length 145m

Although short this Par 3 hole will be no pushover. A shallow green places emphasis on distance control. The surrounds to the green will be quite complicated making for some interesting "up and down" recovery golf. A natural feel to this golf hole set in amongst the eucalypts creating a wonderful setting for what will be a very memorable hole.

7
Par 4, Length 350m

A nice little Par 4 where most players will have a chance for a par. Good players will be hoping for a birdie, a nice drive left of centre with a little fade, followed by a crisp wedge and hopefully hole a short putt for a three will be the aim.

8
Par 5, Length 475m

This is a definite two shotter for long hitters but the second shot must be precise, any slightly miss hit approach shot may well cause a blowout in the score. This is certainly a good example of risk and reward golf. For the average player a par should be readily achievable provided the third shot to the green is played with steady nerves. With a watery grave in front and bunkers at the rear of the green distance control will be paramount.

9
Par 4, Length 365m

The key to this hole is a well struck drive anywhere on the fairway but the closer to the wetland on the right the easier the approach shot across the wetland. Some players after a short or poor drive will be forced to lay-up with their second shots setting up a short pitch over the wetland for their third shot. This hole is fraught with danger and in a "make or break" situation (given that for many players this may well be their final hole) will produce some exciting golf.

10
Par 5, Length 515m

There is plenty of room off the tee, particularly to the left, which allows a little latitude to those golfers commencing their round on this hole. A large fairway bunker in the driving zone on the right will come to the attention of long hitters. A long drive which flirts with this bunker will set up a chance for a crack at the green with their second shot, albeit a very dangerous shot with out-of-bounds on the right and bunkers and wetland to the left. But for some the temptation will be too great. For most, a par five will be well earned here.

11
Par 4, Length 370m

For good players a controlled 3 metal from the tee will be the best play, left side of the fairway will give the best angle of approach using a 7 or 8 iron. Good average players will take a driver from the tee and again play the left side of the fairway. A bunker 15 metres short of the green will then come into consideration as it must be carried to reach the putting surface in regulation, add two putts for a solid par and off to the next tee well satisfied.

12
Par 3, Length 175m

This is the longest Par 3 on the course and will present a very stern test even for low markers. The green is guarded on the left by wetlands and a bunker however there is ample bailout to the right. The green is large and heavily contoured making chip and putt pars a difficult proposition. For a good player, depending on the wind direction, setting up next to the danger on the left and working the ball to the right is one option, or a nice draw shot which bounces forward using the contours of the green is another. This could well be a pivotal hole in championship play.

13
Par 4, Length 365m

Another challenging hole requiring a well placed strong drive if par is to be threatened. The second shot, which for many players could be a mid to longish iron, must carry the wetland immediately in front of the green. The average player may well play this as a short par 5 taking three shots to reach the green.

14
Par 4, Length 305m

A beautiful little Par 4, framed by a melaleuca wetland on the left and a mature forest along the right boundary. The green is also framed with large trees in the backdrop. The big boys will have a crack at the green with their tee shot, but if misdirected, a high score may eventuate. This hole is full of temptation even for a medium player. Keep a cool head and pars and birdies will readily be achievable, conversely a triple bogie is just as likely.

15
Par 5, Length 535m

This is easily the longest Par 5 at Kooindah Waters and except for the very very long players this will play as a genuine three "shotter". Being a double dogleg the ability to shape the ball both ways will come into calculation, particularly on the second shot where there are at least four realistic options as well as the all-out option to be on in two. For the medium player par is not improbable but very controlled and intelligent play will be necessary. This hole will certainly expose any weaknesses either physical or mental.

16
Par 4, Length 370m

A straight-ish, medium to strong Par 4. The most notable feature of this hole is the wetland on the left extending from the tee to beyond. A good drive and a bunker separates the driving zone from the adjacent wetland. A strong drive which flirts with the fairway bunker will set-up the best angle of approach for a mid iron second shot to a green heavily bunkered on the right. A formidable Par 4.

17
Par 3, Length 140m

Although short, the island green virtually surrounded by wetland will put fear into most mortals. For duffers, a lay-up fairway on the left will provide some relief. Wind will definitely be a factor in the playing of this very heroic hole. All sorts of scores from a hole-in-one to double figures can be expected at anytime even from good players. Commitment and steady nerves are prime ingredients for success here.

18
Par 4, Length 410m

By any standards this is a very long Par 4 fraught with danger from the tee through to the green. From the tee good players will be tempted to take-on the wetland skirting up the left in order to shorten their second shot. Two deep fairway bunkers lurk on the right at 240 to 250 metres out waiting to catch a slightly "leaked" drive. After a solid drive up the middle a 3 or 4 iron will be needed and ideally it will be a controlled fade which works off the wetland flanking the green on the left. Average players will be well advised to treat this as a short par 5 and with sensible play bogies should be readily achievable. A very memorable finishing hole.

Playing Tips

1
Par 4, Length 364m

This is a challenging tee shot with water on the left; the bunker on the right comes into play at the 240m mark. The ball will feed back tothe centre from the right side of the fairway.

2
Par 5, Length 523m

Your line should be left of the large fairway bunker on the right. On the left side of the fairway the bunker comes into play at 240m. Lay up to the left side of the fairway to give yourself the best approach to a difficult green.

3
Par 4, Length 404m

This is a long Par 4 with a narrow tee shot that generally plays downwind which makes the hole play a little easier. It has a well bunkered green with a slight slope from back to front.

4
Par 3, Length 186m

This is a difficult Par 3 that requires a well struck long iron, well bunkered ont he right hand side with a reasonably flat green.

5
Par 4, Length 354m

This is a short Par 4 - get past the bunker on the left and this hole plays a lot easier.

6
Par 4, Length 314m

A short dog leg left Par 4, long hitters may be able to drive this green downwind with a good bounce. Otherwise a second shot will be to a large flat green.

7
Par 3, Length 135m

A standard Par 3 that is well bunkered. It has shallow bunkers on the left and a large deep bunker on the right.

8
Par 5, Length 474m

A Par 5 that begins with an elevated tee shot, the bunkers come into play for the long hitters. Your lay up second shot should be on the left fro the best approach to the green.

9
Par 5, Length 438m

This is the hardest hole on the course. It is an extremely long hole that generally plays into the wind. Your approach shot is to a split level green with a false front.

10
Par 5, Length 480m

A Par 5 with a narrow tee shot, the bunker comes into play on the right. Most of the bunkers are within 100m of the green. You may find that laying up will give you the best chance of making birdie.

11
Par 4, Length 334m

This short Par 4 gives the player a couple of options. Option 1 is to play safe to the right of the fairway bunker. Option 2 would be to play aggressively over the left hand trap that will leave a second shot of less than 100m.

12
Par 3, Length 165m

A medium length Par 3 that is well bunkered on both the left and right.

13
Par 4, Length 326m

This is a challenging Par 4 with a narrow fairway. If you catch the slope at 220m the ball will roll a further 40m. Short of the green to the right there is a lot of bunkering.

14
Par 4, Length 381m

A difficult Par 4 that requires a well placed tee shot. Run out on the right is 240m. The second shot is downhill and there is a lot of trouble behind the back of the green.

15
Par 3, Length 124m

This short Par 3 is very exposed to the elements. It is well bunkered onthe left and right and anything short right will leave a very difficult chip.

16
Par 4, Length 392m

A long Par 4 that generally plays into the wind. The bunkers come into play onthe right for the long hitters, shorter hitters need to be accurate in avoiding the bunkers that align down the middle. Your second shot is to a reasonably flat green.

17
Par 4, Length 361m

A dog leg left Par 4. Long hitters line will be over the bunkers on the left. The second shot is to a reasonably flat green with a deep bunker short left and a large slope falling off the right hand side of the green.

18
Par 5, Length 550m

And finally a Par 5 to finish your round. It has a wide fairway with bunkers coming into play. Bunker carry on the left is 230m. Your best option for your second shot is to lay up short of the fairway bunkers to leave a short iron approach to a large green.
