Watched a Peter Finch video from Hesketh, it looks like a great track.

It’s got some very nice holes and some very average ones.
Always in good condition though.
It’s no push over and in the wind it’s a bit of a beast.

Very much a course of two halves. The inland holes are proper links ones but the ones nearer the sea are very parkland ( go figure!!)

One of the courses in my area that I've not had the pleasure of playing (as yet!)

Great club and course. The links holes are obviously the stand out as mentioned above, but, I also think the moorland holes over the road don't often get the credit they deserve. Yes, they're not as good as the links one's, and there are a few weak ones, but they are still pretty decent and overall it would be an superb place to play your golf.

The holes clubhouse side of the road are great. The holes the other side are... just play 9 holes ?

I agree, I think its more 14 good holes than 9.

Like everyone has said, it’s decent round the clubhouse but a bit boring over the road.
If you came down to playing Ken you’d realise there are definitely 3, possibly 4 better tracks in Southport alone.

I'm sure you are right. Would love to play there and round Liverpool one day.

Of course you need to stop off at Silloth on Solway on the way down to play the best links in the north west of England

Played this last year and really enjoyed it. Very tight but well presented course. Glad I got a buggy.
THAT par 3 is beautiful.

12th?
Course is even better now. We’ve redone the bunkers on 12 and 16 (inc getting rid of more trees on 16) and extending the green. Cleared trees on 18, put in fairway bunkers and redone all the green side bunkers, plus made the green a bit smaller.
Next was a look at 1, 2 & 3 but thats now been put back a year.
