Lindrick - One of Yorkshire and England's best
Tradition meets all parts of championship golf is a good way to describe this proud but reserved club. Just a few miles from the M1, the club and its course straddles the road from Sheffield to Worksop and its 'roll of honour' extends from the Dunlop Masters and the Ryder Cup, through to the very best in Amateur competition, and has included Open Championship Pre-Qualifying (the latter list of courses deserve their own record, a number of true gems where players wanting to play in the greatest Championship of them all find the first hurdle for qualifying too much to handle).
The Marriott Forest of Arden and Golf.
You will be fully aware that from the 6th-9th May, the Marriott Forest of Arden will host another top European Tour event, the Daily Telegraph Damovo British Masters. With all due respect to the work that Sky have done for Top Golf, this week will be extra special as its a Championship being covered by the BBC, meaning a much bigger audience and that the Hotel and its Championship course will be showcased across the Country - but Marriott support golf at all levels ....
A new course for the region
If you have flown into or out of Birmingham Airport in the past two years, you may have notice the gradual appearance of a new golf course. Its the brainchild of Mark Harry, owner of Widney Manor, a course where many golfers have learnt the game of golf. This new course is not really one for beginners (but it does have some of the most impressive practice facilities around) and in its signature hole, there is a challenge that will/has tested the best.
Sherfield Oaks
For most of our course reviews, we have looked at courses where a handicap is required. This is the first of a feature on courses in Hampshire and surrounding counties, a part of the County where we know a number of you work during the week plus somewhere which is an easy drive for a day out. If you are a recreational golfer and don t have a handicap, where could you go and enjoy yourself, maybe in the company of more regular golfers?
Broadstone
The Broadstone Golf Club has a reputation. It deserves one. Few clubs can match the care and the presentation of their course. For our review, it was in excellent condition and where there was further work needed, the club was obviously doing so. The clubhouse works so well to create an impression of somewhere special as you walk out across to the first tee, an opening par five which is much more challenging than its yardage.
