Hurtmore Golf Club

A very nice course suited to all levels of play. Compared to other courses in the area (due to the dry weather) the Greens were in amazing condition. The ground was still pretty hard from the dry spell making shots from the fairways a little tricky. The fairways are nice and wide and forgiving, a number of the par 4’s were drivable. The course has some large greens that maintain a good consistent ball speed. The clubhouse and its staff were great. Overall this course is extremely good value.

On Christmas eve, why not go play a round of golf, so Hurtmore was chosen , knowing that it can handle most of the recent rains and hopefully still be in good condition. It was, greens allowed you to go at the flags, lovely and receptive, fairways good except for the creators where previous golfers haven't be bothered to replace their divots, that's when I'm greatful for winter rules! Bunkers not too bad, plenty of sand in most, be great if once again those who land in there rake them! I was punished by landing in a previous 3rd escape divot of a recent visitor...... I ended up being invited to join a 3 ball, good group on lads, thankful I did as it was slow ahead because of a 2 and 4 ball who seemed to constantly be joining each other down the fairways, then finishing before teeing up separately again? Loved the short par 4s, wonderful long par 5 and some tough little par 3s, snagged 5 birdies out there, mostly from some good recoveries..... Thoroughly enjoyed my pre Christmas round of golf, no lost balls, a great short course that's well worth a visit, if only others cared for it as much as some.... Greenkeepers I dote my hat, loved the greens, thank you Hurtmore, I shall return....
