New courses this year?

[PCWOX]

Did a mini golf tour to the South Coast last Thursday and Friday. Played Broadstone for £55 on the County Card Scheme on Thursday which I thought was a good price. A fantastic course indeed and will definitely go back one day. Some tough holes, and was beaten up on a few with blind shots and balls landing in the gorse

On Friday we played Isle of Purbeck where the green fee of £38 represented great value for money. Great weather too. Again, as Broadstone, some stunning holes and the views out to sea and Sandbanks almost worth the green fee alone.

I highly recommend both courses

Not planned, but just come back from Ayrshire & done as new ...

East Renfrewshire
Kilmarnock Barassie
Prestwick
Troon Lochgreen
Glasgow Gailes

(with repeat visits to Belleisle and Prestwick St Nicholas thrown in as well). Darn good week even if we did get rained off one day.

I'm assuming Prestwick old? If so what was your favourite of the others?

I'm playing both at Slaley Hall on Friday, what have I to expect?

 

[HomerJSimpson]

It absolutely battered me. One tough mutha

I played like a chomper mind you (first round after most recent lesson), however that is not a course you should pick to practice on.

Zero margin for error, especially on the back 9

Loved every minute of it though

Yep, no place to hide. I did OK. Made a real mess of the beautiful par 3 10th and as a short hitter struggled on some holes into the wind but what a place to chop it around. I bet a January medal in a howling gale is interesting

Glad to hear you enjoyed my home course :thup:

Another new course for me. Played Coxmoor last Friday which is just south of Mansfield in Nottinghamshire. Fantastic track with some stunning holes. Warm welcome in the Pro Shop and clubhouse too. Would highly recommend it to anyone :thup:

Some place called Sunningdale next week, near Ascot or something... any good? :cheers:

Good stuff, did he move from Mount Ellen by chance? We've had a few from there
