TROON MUNICIPAL, DARLEY COURSE

One of three excellently maintained municipal courses and a severe test of golf for high handicap players. With gorse lined fairways straight hitting from the tee is a must.

Not suitable for a beginner, even a high handicapper will find the narrow gorse-lined fairways and bunkered greens intimidating. After the straight first few fairways the narrow and twisting holes that follow are increasingly demanding. This is a good test of a player with consistent ball striking and confidence in their game but it is a test of nerves.


Holes Of Note:

5th - A long (426 yd) par 4 with a drive over a gorse filled valley.

9th - A par 3 [166 yd] requiring an accurate tee shot to a green completely surrounded by gorse.


Recommended Handicap 22
