I was in Jamaica in Feb 2011, and played the course three times.
The bamboo lined hole is now # 9 and still very difficult to play.
Hole #4 is now a par 3.

Joe, thank you very much for the update.
The order of the holes was changed when the original old clubhouse in the centre of the town was sold, and a new clubhouse built in the centre of the course.
What used to be the 5th hole became the 1st.
The order of play remained the same, so the par 3 8th hole became number 4.
Mandeville, the Manchester Club ... the course and the old clubhouse ... were an integral part of my life for many, many years.
Lots of great memories of Golf and Tennis Weeks every summer in the 50's, 60' and 70's ... and the annual Ball.
These were annual events looked forward to by people from all over Jamaica.
Hope you enjoyed the Manchester Club and your three rounds of golf.
