Dean WalkerAugust 24, 2025A course you'll never grow tired of playing.
James McDonaldJanuary 26, 2025Really great links style course and one you can get after but can easily come unstuck. It’s a testing but fun course to play.

One of the top five courses in New Zealand, consistently. Not a resort course, but a brilliantly designed links courses by Alex Russell. Small greens, where the angle of approach is critical to get near the pin or even hold the green. Great greens and requires all the skills to score well. Currently ranked no.3 behind Te Arai and Tara Iti.
