Played it the day before the Scottish PGA OOM final last year and it was most def soaked in places so much so they had moved the pins to the high points on all the greens

The Queens is a gem, a bit short which makes it very enjoyable. The Kings can be a brute, a tough course requiring every club and shot in the bag but massively enjoyable.
The PGA, just a slog. It has some really nice holes but without a buggy it's a slog.
Given a choice and depending on what company I had my choice would be
Queens
Kings
PGA
But I believe of the 3 the Kings is the best course there.

Hopefully playing all three end of March 2018.
30th and 31st Kings and Queens and then the PGA on the 1st of April as that is when it re opens after the winter closure

Well it must be 6 months or more since I posted I'd only get one new course this year (and it literally is a new course) so I had to dig out this thread because it just opened to members/vips at the weekend and will open to the public on Wednesday & the early feedback is that its stunning
I've got a tee-time Wednesday so less that 48 hours to go, can't wait....

Well that went well!
Played the brand new Le Parc course yesterday with a gentle 4 club wind that I didn't manage very well resulting in a very poor score but the course itself was excellent
It was in great condition and a huge variety of hole designs so even on a calm day there's nothing 'samey' about these holes
Already looking forward to next game there...

I played the Kings Course last Winter. We didn't get very lucky with the weather but it was still a brilliant and beautiful golf course. Highly recommended. I would love to return to Gleneagles and play it again on a beautiful Summer day.

Shifnal

Toot Hill
Beau Desert
Sandiway

Been a great year and probably the most rounds of golf I have played in any one year. Cant complain on any level, been very lucky.
Gleneagles is an amazing setting, remember staying on the 'estate' for a weeks holiday during summer, was not allowed to play golf but in the evening Me/Wife would go for walks around the courses and some of the holes looked nice, but the clubhouse setting with a guy playing the bagpipes outside sometimes and red squirrels running around the estate, is just beautiful. Would love to go there and play golf one day.

My first club. Nice course with a tough first four holes, and a really hard last one. If the honours boards go back to the 70's you might see my name.

Not a chance, I am not going that far into the rough
He's just lucky they haven't been forced to restart border checks yet!
