THE IAN WOOSNAM COURSE

The Ian Woosnam Course was constructed in 1995 and opened in 1997. The course has gained the reputation as being one of the finest courses in the South East. Designed by the former Masters and Ryder cup Captain, the Ian Woosnam course covers nearly 200 acres of beautiful Sussex countryside.

Constructed to USGA Specifications, the greens provide excellent putting surfaces all year around.

Since 2005 Leaderboard golf has invested heavily in the drainage of the course which has seen an improvement in the general playability all year round.

The course has a par of 71 for both men and ladies and starts with a 602 yard par 5 to wet your appetite. Once reaching the 5th hole the course opens up and the views are spectacular.

The long rough positioned around the course demands accuracy off the tee and the quick greens require a steady nerve.

Both our courses at Dale Hill offer very different challenges for all golfers, please click on the image below for a more in depth account of each hole on The Ian Woosnam Course.

Slope Ratings:

Dale Hill Golf Club now operates robotic mowers. Please see the R&A rulings below regarding the procedures and rules that apply when robotic mowers are in use on the golf course.

Relief for Interference by Robotic mower or charging station: If a ball lies on or against a static robotic mower or charging station, or if they interfere with a player’s stance or area of intended swing, free relief (drop) is allowed under Rule 16.1b.

Ball Moved or damaged by a Robotic Mower: If a robot mower moves a ball at rest, it is considered an outside influence. You must replace the ball in its original spot (Rule 9.6) with no penalty. The original ball must be used unless it has been cut or cracked and then a substitute ball may be used.

Ball Deflected by a Robotic Mower: If a ball in motion is accidentally deflected by a mower, the stroke counts and the ball must be played as it lies (Rule 8.16.2).

Ball lands on a moving Robotic Mower: If your ball comes to rest on a moving outside influence located anywhere except on a putting green, you must NOT play the ball as it lies (15.2a(2)). Instead, you must take relief by dropping a ball in this relief area:

Reference Point: The estimated point right under where your ball first came to rest on the person, animal or moving outside influence. Size of Relief Area Measured from Reference Point: One club-length, but with these limits, must be in the same area of the course as the reference point, and must not be nearer the hole than the reference point.

Player Conduct: Players must not interfere with or stop the movement of a Robotic mower. Any purposeful influence on a mower or its effect on a ball may result in penalty under Rule 1.2a (Serious Misconduct).
