Not played Polkemmet for years, cracking wee 9 hole course. Love the par 3 9th finishing hole :thup:

It sure is, I remember the 1st time I "drove the ditch" from the 1st tee when I was about 14, what an achievement :whoo:
Is probably only 150 yds

1st post on here! I'm not a member anywhere, only been playing a year!
Word of warning about Polkemmet.....I "played" it last Sunday, it should never have been open in the 1st place , totally white with frost, struggled to find balls that I knew were on the fairway. Also it was meant to be winter greens, could only find 6 of them and 3 of them had no flags!!
Maybe its just been neglected due to time of year as its been a decent wee course in the summer months.
Anyone played Torrance Park at Newarthill? - £240 for 5 days / £340 for 7 days

575 thats including insurance.
very nice course as well prob the best of the 4 in the local area and id say in the top 10ish in cornwall.
old club was 370 a year but there is no comparison between the 2
for the money we got the 18 hole "championshp" course a little 9 hole practice thing in the hotel grounds which i never used. a massive pratctice ground area as well with a short game range a driving range and a bunker practice bit only downside is a case of take your own balls to the range

think the joining fee is being reduced, possibly to 500 - 600, not sure, there is a committee minute on the board about it, and then add on first years subs, so may be a bit less. Have you had a letter yet ?

I believe they have planning permission approved for one, i'm thinking of the 5 day one just for practice after work, only 5 mins from home, leaving the weekends for something nicer!!

Was there on Sunday afternoon frost all around and flags in every winter green, but i went up more as trying to map out the course with my rangefinder than wanting to play golf.

I was the same
If you guys liked Polkemmet you should try Oatridge near Uphall, it's a cracking wee 9 holer

Dont know anythiing about Polkemmet, however, most courses are open these days. It's the sign of times where money is tight and they need the custome.
Welcome by the way.
