Hmmm, just saw this list.
I didn't pay any attention to the formula. I figured its a formula and as with any golf formula it will be quite subjective. There will always be large discrepancies in comparing the rankings of any four people. All I did was provide a ranking of courses under £100 as best I could.
Yes, I did talk up Kington and Cleeve Hill...I am not sure the other panellists have seen or perhaps even heard of these two. Although, I am quite surprised to see Kington rated so high...Cleeve Hill as well for that matter. To a large degree, this is the point of the ranking...to showcase fine courses which are often overlooked by the media. With this in mind, a few courses stand out for me...Thetford, Spey Valley, Irvine and Ipswich.
I do disagree concerning what it costs to travel to a course as a criteria. That sort of approach opens a huge can of worms which has no solution.
