Course Description
Nefyn and District Golf Club is a 26-hole championship golf course located spectacularly along an isolated piece of rugged coastline and with a world famous mountain range as its backdrop. "Nefyn – a view from the sea from every tee"Visitors to Nefyn Golf Club, with its unique 26 hole layout, have the choice of playing The Old or The New Courses, though it is to be hoped that they allow themselves enough time to experience the challenge of both.The Old Course consists of Holes 1-10 (Old) followed by Holes 11-18 (Old) on the world famous 'Point'. It opens with a series of 4 holes running parallel with and, a times, very close to the rugged coastline, before moving inland with some testing par 4s and a challenging par 3. It then moves to The 'Point'- eight holes on a narrow peninsula with fairways and tees perched above secluded coves and tiny inlets on one side and sandy beaches on the other.The New Course consists of Holes 1-10 (Old) followed by Holes 11-18 (New). These eight holes follow the natural contours of the headland and coastal inlet, confronting the golfer with some testing par 4s, particularly the 15th, a long, sweeping right to left dog-leg with strategically placed bunkers. All the holes enjoy the spectacular backdrop of the Snowdonia range. On the way home, the 18th hole offers golfers a stunning panoramic view of the entire golf course.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions about Yellow/Blue
Get answers to common questions about playing Yellow/Blue and what to expect.
How difficult is Yellow/Blue for mid-handicap golfers?
Yellow/Blue is regarded as a strategically complex layout. This slope level makes it manageable compared to championship venues. The course rating of 70 reflects on scoring relative to par 68.
What tees should a 15 handicap play at Yellow/Blue?
A 15 handicap golfer should consider tees closer to 6000 yards. The back tees extend to 6500 yards, which makes approach shots longer and scoring more challenging.
What is considered a good score at Yellow/Blue?
With a course rating of 70 and par 68, a mid-handicap golfer would typically score in the mid to high 80s. Stronger players aiming to break 68 must manage approach shots and avoid penalty strokes.
How long is Yellow/Blue and how does yardage affect play?
Stretching to 6500 yards from the back tees, it does not overwhelm length but rewards accuracy.
What type of course is Yellow/Blue and how should I play it?
The course follows a traditional Links design philosophy. Overall, the setup will reward players who place the ball in safe positions far from hazards. Also, type of shot is more crucial rather than just trying to gain distance.
What features make Yellow/Blue strategically challenging?
The combination of a slope rating of 120 and yardage reaching 6500 yards creates consistent pressure on approach shots. You will need to balance risk and reward, especially on longer par 4s and protected greens.
