The weather forecast for the day was pretty terrible a couple of days before hand but I’m glad we didn’t call it off. The day was perfect 🙂 We had blue skies with a slight breeze & I couldn’t have asked for more.
Let me start off by saying this was one of the most enjoyable games of golf I have had in a while. The course delivered what it promised & at one of the most reasonable prices going on the Peninsula. It also offers some of the best ocean views of any of the courses that I have played in Victoria. To top this off, the staff were friendly, helpful & very accomodating.
The courses starts off with a short par 4 with well placed bunkers, the bunkering at this course is great, making for some interesting club selections. The sand in the first bunker was a little hard but after that they were pretty good. The greens were top notch, the fairways were close to perfect. It took me 4 holes to find a fairway but when I did hit one they were a pleasure to play off 😉
There are some spectacular holes here at Flinders, none better than the 4th (The Coffin) & the 5th (The Beach Hole) which are played right along the cliff tops offering magnificent views.
I couldn’t have asked for a better day, great friends, great course, great weather an all round fantastic birthday 🙂
