Due to lack of time I have only played 5 courses, of which 3 new: Halesworth, Frinton & the most memorable, Anglesey in October. Travelled early from Suffolk to RAF Valley for a week, security passes and unloaded the van said i'm tired see you tomorrow morning. Straight to course, cost £10 for 18 holes !! Some Mondays they do this. It's different (sheep on fairway & tall gorse) I enjoyed it and would play again.

Points member at Newton Green played 15ish times. The other course was Colchester.

Happy with all of them. Next year hoping to play more and also new courses.

Held the course record at Newton Green when it was 9 holes, (a long time ago) also lived opposite the old 9th green, have been back to play the 18 holes since it was upgraded, also enjoyed Colchester.

Had a few pints in the Saracens Head, wife's family lived there for ages, so that is the connection.

Big lifestyle change for me this year. Moved to Scotland in January and made redundant after 23 years in Feb. Been working a much lower paid job all hours and days which massively impacted the original golf plans. Still managed to play 17 different courses of which one became my new club and 13 were new to me.

a poor year for me, a job change which was a return to being in an office full time during the week, with the odd day in the field (literally) only 2 course

2 or 3

My wife rather struggles with the idea of me paying good money to play courses not my own, when I pay £2k in subs to be able to play my own lovely track.

4 scorecards this year and easily the least golf I’ve played in over a decade. So much for my 2023 resolution of getting back into it. But what I have played have all been as special as ever.

As best I recall, 55 courses, 13 for the first time, would have been more but must have had 10 cancelled due to weather, The vast majority were for £25 or less, thanks to opens
55 courses? Very impressive. But why bother with membership? Good lord I don't think I've played 55 times at my place in 12 months.
