Hockley, Royal Winchester and South Winchester are all built on chalk.

Not sure how far away from you it is but we always used to go to Dummer when all the other courses were waterlogged.

Test Valley also drains well and I've yet to see any mud on the course.

Tidworth is always dry, no temp greens and a nice course

Played Boundary Lakes at the Ageas Bowl last week. A but soft under foot in places, and 2/3 temp tees but the greens were great (USGA spec) and overall great condition. Great value for £20.

Close enough, it’s on the border 🤪

Yeah.. they all do get boggy at times still, but only certain parts. Not boggy all over at least.

If it's wet enough for Hockley to get boggy then pretty much most other courses in the area will be shut.

Close enough isn’t good enough, you’ll be saying next it’s ok to search for your ball for 3 minutes and 5 seconds 🥺🥺🥺🤐
