Forgot about Ganton. Panal similarly has already been mentioned.Ganton - it’s just really tough
I generally think heathland style courses are pretty tough.

That’s mainly due to the need to avoid the heather.Forgot about Ganton. Panal similarly has already been mentioned.

Played The Roxburghe yesterday.So long and finished 4th from bottom. one of the lads I played with never stopped stopped swearing but a real laugh. He threw his club from off the green over the green. Great dayTough shout, Pannal or The Roxburghe ?. I'll go The Roxburghe, off the whites, as it was more recent and so I can remember it better. Very strong wind making an already long course even longer in parts. Every hole has something about it, every green was protected more than any course I've seen before. You needed to hit a good shot every time. You couldn't have a weak shot and expect to score well still, you were punished.
Big, fast tricky greens mean that even getting on them was not achievement enough.
It wasn't unfair, it was beautifully kept, it was just a challenge all the way.
I'd love to go back on a calm day and play it off the yellows ?
Heaton Park. No question. I've never been so snackerd in all my life. Blind tee shots. Uphill, downhill all damn day.
Depending on the green that could be a hell of a throw ?. It's one of the few courses I've played that claims to be a championship course and actually could be.Played The Roxburghe yesterday.So long and finished 4th from bottom. one of the lads I played with never stopped stopped swearing but a real laugh.

Either The Castle or Crail Craighead when played in a cold north easterly. Both are quite exposed to some very cold and difficult conditions in that direction.
Fortunately The Castle closes over winter but I’ve had the misfortune to play Craighead in a medal on a very cold November day and it is easily the most miserably hypothermic round of golf I’ve played. When the balls are freezing and going nowhere it’s a depressingly long slog. Hated it and I have no desire to ever repeat it.
