A few pics of the course just up the road from us. It's high quality, and a pity it's only 9 holes, but it's a good test, especially when the rough is up!
Driving range at 7.30am
1st tee at 8am with sun still coming up. Boundary fence of the driving range is far right.
View from the 1st tee down across the driving range and the low hills of West Lothian
Green on 2nd hole
Tee box on 4th hole - long (over 200yds) uphill par 3
Tee shot to behind the bunker on the left of the 4th green
Old man teeing off on the 5th. Burn flowing in to a sizeable water hazard!!! There is a tiger line, but it's blind and has OOB on the left. Much better to play it conventionally.
Water hazard on the 5th
6th hole. Another 200yd par 3 with a steep drop off back to the 5th fairway on the right. Slightly uphill and into the prevailing wind.
View over bunker to green on the 6th - my tee shot just short of green.
Bunker city! View from 6th across and down the 7th dogleg with lots of bunkers guarding the green which is far left and middle of shot.
Putting on the 7th with the 8th fairway behind
Good wee course and not bad at £12 a round mid week and 14 at weekends. They sometimes have Groupon offers to keep an eye out.
