Golf Blog - Bowral course review
Well last weekend saw me treck down to Bowral, about 1 hour south of Sydney to play in an annual social golf club tournament ‘the Koobaloya Cup’.
The event is a two day event using a stableford handicap system (thank god). the schedule kicked off with us teeing off in groups of 4 at 1.30pm on the Saturday followed by a massive night on the turps and then a 9.30 tee off on Sunday.
Saturday was a beautiful day and the course in really good condition. Unfortunately my golf wasn’t. Even with a huge handicap I still only managed to scrape up 26 stableford points.
Saturday night was a great night finished up with a 2.30 am finish and a very sore head on the Sunday mornig for tee off. That being said maybe I should drink before golf more often because I finshed the day in 2nd place on 39 stableford points. maybe the sore head forced me to keep the head down.
The course itelf is really well maintained, very picturesque and peaceful in the southern highlands of NSW. Some of the downfalls of the course is that it is really lacking in decent course markings, limited distance markers and direction to the next hole, etc. The course layout is a strange one finding yourself having to cross back over holes that you have already played.
All in all a great weekend and not a bad course. Definitely worth a round if your in the area.
