A matter of course(s)

In a further attempt to gain some practice ahead of my planned visit to The Belfry in November, Moog & I had a round of golf at Horsham Golf Park. Now, Horsham is a municipal pay & play course and is described as follows:

"Horsham, which opened its doors in 1993, is a short but challenging parkland course with several water features to catch out the unwitting golfer. It is ideal for players new to the game and those who are slightly more skilled.
The course comprises a selection of tricky par threes and greens that are well protected by various different hazards."

Whereas, the Brabazon course at the Belfry is described thus: -

"Legendary in the world of Golf, the Brabazon course has tested many of the games greats, Faldo, Ballesteros and Woods to name a few and is regarded throughout the world as a great championship course. Having hosted the Ryder Cup matches an unprecedented four times, it is a course that every golfer aspires to play.

To follow in the footsteps of the world's greatest ever players is something that sends a tingle down your spine."

As for the last point - so does 240 volts, but it doesn't mean that the experience is either good for you or enjoyable!

Anyway due to the similarity between the descriptions of the two courses we decided that the former would be a suitable test. The net result (minus the technical shots that couldn't be counted) was a round of 57 which is spookily the same number of golf balls that I'll probably lose at The Belfry!!
