I'm an Australian who has been fortunate enough to live in a few different countries and to have been able to travel widely throughout the world with my job and on holidays. My golf sticks pretty much always go with me and at last count I've been able to experience life and golf in 68 different countries and played about 600 different courses (315 of those in Australia, including all of the top 100 public access courses).
Even though I know it's highly unlikely, I love the thought of trying to play golf in every country in the world with a golf course - it's a long, long term goal.
My excuse for my 13 handicap is that I'm still working full time. My favourite golf courses include the rather diverse: Prestwick, Barnbougle Dunes, Paa-Ko Ridge, all the courses at St Andrews, and NSW Golf Club.
There's a lot to like about Alice Springs GC: for a start, it's unexpected to find a course like this in what is a fairly small country town in regional Australia. There'...
A lovely parkland members course in suburban Adelaide, situated just over a kilometre from the sea but blessed with a rolling sandy base that allows elements of links gol...
There is more than enough information preceding this review, detailing specifics about the holes, so I shall not repeat. I will merely confirm that this is a magnificent...
A resort style course and housing development on Bribie Is. Although parkland in character, many of the holes are flanked by native shrubs rather than trees, so some hole...
This parkland cartball resort course is well kept, has plenty of bunkers and water hazards that are regularly visible off the tee (it is called Lakelands after all) but w...
Even though the course has been established for probably ten years, it still feels like a newish championship course. It was designed as the centrepiece of a country club...
I'm sure there is no need to add yet more effusive praise for both the siting of the course, or the design, so let me add some other notes to playing golf on King Island:...
Sanctuary Lakes is a championship, members course set on a sandy links-style layout a half hour south of the CBD and close to Port Philip Bay. There are pure greens and b...
Curlewis is a fairly rural members course set 20 minutes south of Geelong, or probably just over an hour from central Melbourne. Although rural, it is better than average...
A Melbourne members club course that has tried to emulate a linksland layout and partially succedded. The trees are sparsely scattered and the rough is mostly low reed-st...
Gailes is an older style members parkland course set around a gently sloped and broad hill. The key design feature is the slight dog-legs on the holes, combined with the...
Notwithstanding the ongoing zombie apocalypse, there is change in the air at Yas Links. They seem to have recognised the concerns over some of the conditioning issues an...
I am perhaps very fortunate to have played here at Al Mouj and then at Yas Links, within a few days of each other. Both courses share so many similarities being routed be...
Initially I found this course a little hard to fit into a neat box: was it a desert course, a members course trying to be parkland, or was it a resort course catering to...
The Lakes is a regular home of The Australian Open and is one of Australia's best courses. It's an open parkland course filled with dramatic and penal bunkering and plent...
As has been mentioned in many other reviews, NSWGC is an interestingly and at times spectacularly designed course on the coastline of the Pacific Ocean and Botany Bay. It...
First up - truth in advertising: there are a lot of pine trees around this course. It would appear to have been carved, by the numbers, through them: each nine has a par...
This parkland style resort course is the 'public access' course of the two 18's at Sanctuary Cove and features, not surprisingly, palm trees on most holes as well as plen...
St. Micks is a championship coastal course in Sydney's southeastern suburbs that combines many of the features of the very highly rated next door neighbour NSW GC. Qualit...
When there's been a significant period between visits to a golf course, it's quite interesting to compare what you remembered about it and what it actually is. It had bee...
