Sheffield Course Recommendations

[HeftyHacker]

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for a decent golf course in or around Sheffield?

This will be on the 10th October for 5 or 6 golfers of varying ability (single figures to mid 20's hcp). Obviously with the time of the year drainage could be an issue, so if any are known to play well in the wet that would be a bonus.

Would also ideally need buggies as one of the group struggles with his back.

Thanks in advance ?

Well - if The Hallamshire is good enough for Matt Fitzpatrick then it's good enough for me

Not far down the road in Chesterfield - Walton (Chesterfield) Golf Club is a really nice track. And of course much less expensive in the Chesterfield area is Tapton Park (public) course - fine for a knock.

Brilliant, thanks for the reply. I'll check them out!

Others will I am sure have better suggestions. Just suggesting those I know (though I haven't played The Hallamshire)

Have look at Abbeydale. Possibly the best in the area

I haven’t played it for many years, but Hillsborough was a great track.

The Hallamshire all day long. I was a member here and it’s a great track. Probably one of the toughest first three holes in the UK.

At nearly 1000ft above sea level there are some incredible views over the Peak District, but a consequence of its height is the wind! It’s not a long course but if the wind blows in can be one hell of a test.... There is a reason Fitz it’s so good in the wind and the Hallamshire is it.
