One thing to keep in mind before you play Goonawarra is that it can get very windy out here, which can makes thing either very interesting or a complete pain in the ass, depending on how good you are playing in the wind.
The first & second tees at Goonawarra can be quite intimidating. They are hard up against a chain link fence. The fence is on the left hand side on both occasion but even to slicers like my self the fence gets into your head.
The fairways & greens where in fantastic condition & the sand in the bunkers was great quality.
Two of the great holes here at Goonawarra follow each other. The par 3 10th & par 4 11th.
The par 3 10th is 157 metres from the back tee. The lake is to the right, it’s not in play back makes the hole look great. The green is protected by a deep bunker at the front right & another bunker on the left.
The par 11th is over the road. It has another lake down the right hand side of the fairway. The hole doglegs around to the right & if you are prepared to take on the lake you can attempt to drive the green. The is a sign on the 11th tee saying that if you are going to have a crack to make sure the green is cleared before.
Goonawarra is a great course to play, just keep in mind that the wind does get up a bit out there.
