Brock Inn Pitch & Putt

About


What’s in a name?
The Brock Inn gets its name from the nickname for a Badger (Meles meles) “Brock” and is situated at a place allegedly famous for a large Badger colony in the early 1900′s thus, “Brock Inn” Place of the Badger. The badger setts were located on the slope of the hill south of the Pub known as Broghan hill (an area sometimes referred to as Brocan or Baile Brocan – Town of the Badger), today Broughan.

We have an excellent 18 hole Pitch & Putt Course.  Ample parking and fantastic on site facilities for all.

Course

Hole Index Distance Sponsor Description
1 18 50 None Opening hole next to clubhouse. Out of bounds to the right and a large nature tree on the left obscuring the temporary green when in play. The main green is square in shape and protected by a mound making the hole hard to see.
2 14 46 None A shorter hole than the 1st but uphill and green obscured by the protective bank.
3 16 45 None Still shooting off the tee on slight incline the green is visible but there are rounded banks protecting the right hand side.
4 2 61 None After the walk up the hill from the 3rd green you reach the tee box. This is a difficult hole with the Broughan Lane to the right and out of bounds. Trees to the right and a hard sloping green from right to left to land on. The wind plays a huge factor on this one with the wind usually coming from the west and an easy hole to overshoot.

5 10 59 None Down hill tee shot to the green which is fully visible. There are trees to the left and right of the tee. If you hit the wires on tee shot you can take another one off the tee but if you do you have to play that ball.
6 8 61 None teeing off back up the hill parallel to the 5th. You cant see the green and banks protecting on approach. The wind can catch you out here and overshoot and end up on the road and out of bounds.

7 4 52 None Playing up hill to the "wedding cake" green. A fantastic green fully visible with steep sides to front, left and right. You have to nail this one to stand a chance to avoid a downhill putt.

8 12 45 None Tricky hole this with a trench to the back of the green and out of bounds to the right from the tee shot. Better to lay up short.
9 6 42 None A large bank protects the green with the tee position obscuring the full green. Out of bounds to the right and mature trees to the rear left of the green
10 15 44 None Short hole but easy to hit the wires from the tee. If you hit the wires can choose to tee off again.
11 7 41 None A small square green with a high bank protecting it making hole obscured. Best tip, punch into the bank and let it hope on to the green.
12 3 52 None Time to open up the swing for next few holes. Lovely hole with the green in full view.
13 9 65 None A hazardous hole with many a ball lost to the boundary trees on the right off the tee. It can be a full swing depending on the wind and most fall short of the target.
14 57 1 None The smallest green and hardest to land on being like an upside down dinner plate. Out of bounds to the right on this long difficult hole.
15 17 35 None Shortest hole on the course but can be trick with the bank in front of the green protecting the green and very to overhit after the 14th and end up in the large trees.
16 5 70 None A big hit to a big elevated green. Go right and good luck finding your ball. A bank protects the green front also.
17 13 59 None Teeing off between tree lined fairway to the large green.
18 11 63 None Nearly there. The 18th is an open tee shot to a deep green. Always a few spectators around to watch so no pressure.
