Ganton is absolutely superb Dave, I can't wait to go back. I thought it was going to be good but exceeded my expectations massively.
Most overrated golf course you have played.....

There is an entire open week in september of a 36 hole qualifier (one on each) with top 64 scratch playing a knockout round the championship course and next 64 net round the burnside. Includes a practice round and consolation stablefords as well

This was a course I was looking into for my 40th so was suprised to see it on here, heard loads of good things about it.

Take it from me, it is a tremendous golf course. Don't listen to the heretics that know nothing

Most over rated I've played
Close House Colt
Condition is pristine
Layout & design.....very underwhelming
At approx £110 per round too, it's way overpriced

Moogie - Does anyone actually pay £110 to play there? Surely not.
Ganton - A friend of mine plays a lot of corporate golf and rates Ganton as one of the best he has played. He loves Alwoodley but he rates Ganton above that. He has played pretty much every course of note in the NE and Yorkshire. How you are treated in the bar as a guest at Ganton is a different matter. Dave - I dare you to step over the line in the bar. Try it and see what happens.

Nope, played it in late 90's and couldn't remember anything about it. So played in the mid am 2-3 years ago, practise round and then 36 next day, I played with the winner that day, but still nothing stands out about the course. Just find it unmemorable.
But what do I know, there are some qualified course architects and better golfers on this forum that are more qualified then my opinion............

Obviously they struggle to get out of bunkers
Bunkers? Lol, you've played Woodhall I take it, Gantons are kids play pits. 😂

Ignore Davie. He just had a shocker when we played Carnoustie....
I used to think West Lancs was overrated, but now I absolutely love it..
Slaley was just a pointless slog with maybe 2 good holes..

Don't read over rated as meaning poor. I expected Hillside to be way better that it was, it was good but it's no Formby

It's not even as good as S&A....

I haven't played West Lancs since we had that meet in the winter years ago, quite liked it even though we had a short course that day but I will say it was the most unwelcoming course I ever visited
