Holes 13 and 14

This is a short and straight forward, albeit downhill par 3. Stream in front and pond to the left so don't be in there! There really isn't anything to worry about here and a large green makes for plenty of opportunities for a bird so just go do it. OK?

 Now before you get started here you might want to just have a little sit down for youself. This par 5 is long and involves the only real climb in Gowran. Its a nice view backwards though from the top of said hill. Long and straight off the tee here leaving a 5-7 iron for your second shot which in turn leaves about 100m odd to the green. If you are on the upslope of the hill after your tee shot remember that a fairway wood will launch the ball a lot higher than off the flat so not a lot to be gained by tying yourself in a knot. The green is shallow enough and protected short right and left by bunkers so really try to give yourself the best possible approach with your third shot. This is quite a contoured green and can often be 2/3 putt territory if you're not careful. All in all a lovely hole and one of my favourites.
