Los Canales de Plottier - Argentina

The course is the newest addition from Jack Nicklaus to the Patagonia. Although it is finished and ready to play, it still has some issues due to budget but it is a fantastic design in the windy Neuquen, 400kms from Bariloche. I played the course with a group of local friends names "Los Apostoles del Golf" and I had a great time. The course is very demanding, rough can be a cruel penalty and the movement the greens have is just fantastic. You have everything a good golfer expects from a course: challenge, options, reachable par 5s, one reachable par 4, par 3s of different length and an open place where wind will always be a factor. It will take a couple more years to get maturity but it is a great course, a perfect excuse to stay one night at Neuquen, play it and then drive to Bariloche to play Chapelco Golf and El Desafio, 2 of the greatest courses in Latin America.
