Strange how I still remember the shot into the river.

Farnham Park is still going strong…a lovely Par 3 course (designed by Henry Cotton) with some holes quite a bit longer than typical P&P length. Unfortunately for local Pay and Play golfers Southwood closed a few years back.First game was a pitch and putt at Farnham Park then 9 holes round Southwood Farnborough. 45 years later and still going at it.
Putting is a different matter having played on an 18 hole putting 'course' from about the age of 6.

True. And Pine Ridge isn’t too shabby. Trouble is…it’s £32 for a round today, and back in the day I could pay for my golf out of my paper round (think it was 40p, possibly only 20p, a round out of my £2/week for 7 days deliveryYes very sad about Southwood I would have thought they would have at least reverted to a 9 hole course so the local beginners has somewhere to go.
I know the local Councils view was that there were plenty of golf courses in the area without appreciating costs.
