Championship golf course
Rye Hill Golf Club is a traditional parkland course, with heath land features and
panoramic views. As a EuroPro Tour venue, it is testimony to the high calibre of this
championship 6,900 yd par 72 course.
Benefiting from free drainage, the course is
playable in the wettest of weather and trolleys can be used all year. It will test
the abilities of both high and low handicappers with its strategically placed bunkers
to catch wayward shots and the often large and undulated greens.
No houses or
suburban developments can be seen from any point on the course, only the picturesque
church at Bloxham coming into view on a few holes. The rest is left to the rolling
countryside, wildlife and lakes. Set on high ground with magnificent views across
Oxfordshire, the course is a hidden haven.
The new shorter Blue golf course
For those of you who haven't got the time or energy to play our fantastic 6,900 yd par 72 course, we
have recently introduced a shorter 5,900 yard 18 hole course played from our Blue T's.
The Golf Academy @ Rye Hill
At Rye Hill, we pride ourselves on expert tuition, be it for fellow professionals, low handicap county players, mid
handicap club members, juniors and beginners. Whatever the standard or aspiration, we believe everybody has the
potential to improve.
During the season there may be times when you encounter difficulty in different areas of your golf game. It could
be driving, putting, long irons, bunker play or pitching. Our resident PGA professional Tony Pennock can assure
that a rapid improvement can be made with simple to understand methods, tailor made for the individual or groups.
Tony Pennock, PGA Professional
Tony Pennock, a previous European Tour player and Suffolk Pros Stokeplay and Matchplay champion has a wealth of
experience. Competing at the very highest level has meant contact with some of the golfing greats including Nick
Faldo and Gary Player. His claim to fame, though, would be beating Ian Woosnam in the Midland Matchplay Championship!
His teaching skills have been linked with Julie Hall (British Ladies’ Amateur Champion and most capped Curtis Cup
Player) and he has also paved the way for the development of junior golf in Suffolk and Oxfordshire.
