![]() ![]() With the exception of a few holes I thought I played OK. We did try to scam local rates for me but that didn’t quite pan out due to their very on the ball identification policies !ġ6pts Stableford and 117 says i didn’t play well. Overall worth the $160 including club hire and buggy. But the hybrids were fantastic and may be a future purchase. The clubs supplied were Callaway XR’s which didn’t feel too different to my Callaway Big Berthas. It has the feel of a wider links course in places, but without the killer rough.
