The Zone

Designed by Peter McEvoy and Andrew Sherborne, and built to USPGA specifications, the Zone was designed to complete the already extensive practice facilities at the Kendleshire in 2006.

The guiding principle in the design was that every shot should be able to be practiced in the area. For example, a chip from below the hole over a bunker, from above the hole with a lot of green to work with, or a straightforward run-up. Everything should be - and we believe is - possible to practice here at the Kendleshire.

The facility includes:

• A three-level, undulating green with a variety of banks and surface slopes.

• A variety of grass heights, from tight lies to heavy rough.

• A revetted green-side pot bunker.

• A large green-side bunker with shallow and deep faces.

• A 40yd bunker to practice long distance sand approach shots.

• A variety of hanging lies and stances.

• An undulating area for a variety of longer approach lies and stances.

We are committed to maintaining the quality of the Zone and this has been achieved in a number of ways. Firstly, in order to use the facility we charge members a one-off fee of £75.00 (non-members £75.00 per annum) which includes a short lesson with one of our professional staff, who will guide you through the features and how to make the most of your investment.

"With a world-class short game facility just a stone's throw away, the question is how long will it be until you're in The Zone?"
