| bad round on a bad course i woke up this morning and thought i might try the other course by my house (i am in the middle of 2 courses)
well, its a cheaper round to play but there is a reason. its quite cruddy.
due to the drought in australia over the last year, we have had water restrictions put in place. most golf courses use recycled water and therefore are ok, but this one i found out runs on mains and have not been able to water the fairways.
so in essence when you hit the fairway, you have to play off dry dead grass, anything just off the fairway is pretty much dirt. its a 9 hole which i was going to play twice thru but after 55 on the first 9 (not including penalties) and losing 3 balls by the 15th, i gave it in.
so, i wont be going back there again. |
