El Bosque Golf Course

El Bosque is one of Robert Trent Jones's great success-stories in Spain. It is a hilly course, you are often faced with a sloping lie, but the layout of each fairway clearly defines the options you have to play the hole. A great help because although the hazards are visible, they are very dangerous and should be avoided. On a number of holes the golfer is required to play blind approach shots to greens. This can be tricky for those playing for the course for the first time however if you can hit the ball high you can go for the flag as the greens are very receptive The holes blend in well with the landscape, and the design and difficulties vary considerably. In particular there are four beautiful dog-legs and the par 3's are of a particularly high quality. Although the course is surrounded by real estate its American styling ensures that the course and the properties blend together well and players are not disturbed or distracted by the houses on the course boundary. There is a distinct advantage to be gained by taking a buggy and this combined with the layout of the course could convince you that you are actually on American soil.
