Course Review
Very picturesque course on
the side of a hill in the Misbourne Valley.
The course had a couple of temporary greens on it but apart from that it was
in great condition. It gets interesting on the 2nd hole with a sloping fairway
to the right, it is probably possible to have a go at reaching this hole in two,
but it would need to be two very good shots.
The 4th is a tight drive with O.O.B on the left & trees on the right. After
about 6 or 7 holes we noticed the similarity of this courses undulating fairways
to those of Chiltern Forest, this course is a good walk.
The 12th is a very challenging par 3 & if you get a good drive on the 13th
you could be putting for an eagle on the green.
The staff were very friendly, the Clubhouse facilities, particularly the showers
were great. Overall we had a good days golf on this fine course.
Favourite Hole
Hole
16: 418 yard par 4.
From the tee it looks as if you need to fade the ball with your drive, but once
in the fairway you will soon realise that the best line into the green is actually
from the left edge of the fairway.
The approach has to be good as well, if you hit it long there is not much chance
of stopping your chip back onto the green from rolling straight off the other
side.

I'm a junior member at the club and have noticed that you have not updated the web page since the course has been re-designed as there has been many new greens and tee boxes put in. The Clubhouse has had an extension and thee is also a 200 yard driving range, great for warming up before a round. The course is a great test with many tight tee shots and tricky downhill putts. The greens are at a good pace.
