I was at home awaken by a text from my boss asking if I wanted to play Bali Hai 25 mins before they tee'd off. After jumping out of bed and getting to the course this is what I was greeted with. Nice course right on the strip & awesome staff running the place. [IMG] [/IMG]

I've been playing quite a bit of Links golf over here of late.

Several trips to Corballis Links, a public course that will set you back 10-15 euros.... Has to be the best value for golf anywhere.

It's next door neightbour, The Island Links, will set you back 100-150.

It's a short course, Par 66, with 6 Par 3's but it's an excellent test of golf.

Here is one of the par 3's.

Also got to play The European Club last Friday in an Open Competition.

The first counting (for HC purposes) competition of 2014 and my 36 stableford points earned me a 0.3 HC reduction.

The winner had 38 points, the Pro said anything over 30 points out there is a good score, I was delighted with my 36pts (88 strokes) until I seen Tigers card with 67 hanging up in the clubhouse. :-D

Parred the Index 1 that Jack Nicklaus rates as one of his Top 100 golf holes too ;-)

Didn't get a proper photo of the place but here's on that I found

Too funny - just swung through there about an hour ago. Awesome what the sun can do in just a few hours. Hopefully last night's dusting was a fond farewell to winter weather - time to tee it up!!

You guys really put the ancy in fancy.

If I ever get a camera out on the course, I'll try to get you the Cargill corn syrup plant looming on the horizon at my home track.

    • Day 56 - 2024-11-25 Did the BAD Challenge and hit a bunch more other little shots. This was one of the closer shots.
    • 70 today. The number looks good but, the course is a par 67 (5,110 yards, 64.3/115.). While the 70 took quite a few good shots to achieve, I am not counting that as shooting my age.
    • Played our town’s executive course this morning. Everything is closing but for now Huron Hills remains open. #13 is shaped like an upside down backwards L (dogleg left). Only 231 yard par 4. Dogleg has a tree guarding the corner and a sand bunker guards the green for those cutting the dogleg. Tiny green. About 10 years ago or more I would try to cut the dogleg. The hole is so short that even if one tangled with the tree or was bunkered, par was likely and birdie was still on the table. Now in my 70’s, I just hit it straight and try to wedge it close for birdie. Today I screwed up and pulled my drive. I wandered around a bit when my ball was not in the bunker. Finally located it on the approach to the green. Almost chipped in and tapped in the 2 inches for birdie. Best unintentional shot of the week. 😲
