Great pictures, interested to hear what your favourite/ least favourite aspects to the course were, and how you rate the course compared to the others you played.
Alan,
Cheers and thanks. Good thought and question.
I’d start by saying it’s very much oranges and lemons! While RMGC and Kingston Heath are ostensibly immediately comparable and NSW (and certainly Narooma) aren’t (!), there’s still some thoughts which might help draw any comparisons together.
In short, my simple mind found I was enamoured by the visuals of all four in very different ways. RM and KH obviously share a certain amount of architectural DNA, lots of local geology and a cartload of sand, and yet, still manage to be quite different and possessing of individuality. They are like a pair of lovely cousins - not immediate siblings, but closely related nonetheless!
Narooma, I felt, was like any number of great ‘local’ courses here in Scotland. A hidden gem, certainly, like dozens here in the UK. Great fun, a members delight. We spent a couple of evenings having dinner in the clubhouse and loved participating in the raffle for fruits, meats and other delights!
New South Wales probably possesses the most interesting terrain of the courses we saw and that location is beyond compare. It’s a bloody good walk!
At the risk of overstating once again though, the local hosts are totally bonzer!
Cheers,
F.
