From 3pm with daylight savings in the summer, you should comfortably get 18 in and half a dozen bonus holes in the remaining twilight. Great price for a quality course.

You could get 36 in for sure if you were by yourself and there was no one else on the course :)

Do you play one ball a hole or go with 2???

Even with 2 balls you could get 23 or so holes

No daylight saving in WA. But is a great course, was lucky enough to play the Lakes & Quarry on boxing day for nothing with a cart included.

I'll go around with 2. Sensational course by far the best I've played on and its rated number 3 in the Country for public access players.

Costs a shit load to become a member so ill stick to knocking off early and getting some rounds in...

good work!!!!

if you get a chance, take some happy snaps so we can all view in jealousy


I think Belair have a similar deal - about $25 for all the holes after 3pm - but belair has turned into a disgrace

only had a hit there a few weeks ago, with the previous time being a year or so before that, and it seemed disappointing to me. granted it was in summer so you expect things to dry out a bit, but the fairways seemed a bit more inconsistent than i remember them. still a nice little course though.

It is a shithole. Should be far better than what it is. Heck, there's a case for me to go over there and fix it up. For its location, could well be one of the best in SA. Unfortunately, it's absolute crud.

Over Christmas break I played belair and then mount osmond the day after and the difference was amazing. Mt osmond is breathtakingly good, probably my favourite course that I have played on. I haven't played at any of the big courses but I have played at lady bay and that was hell for a high handicapper. My osmond was just right for me, though the greens were tricky.

Belair should be as good as that but reminds me more of north Adelaide north course than it does mt osmond

Exactly. Has the potential to be awesome but for some reason, it sucks arse.

I should get to Mt Osmond at some stage by the sounds.

Was trying to show the view, was standing on a green at the time, and behind that green was a huge drop off, then suburbia. Would be great to tee a few up and get the driver out :)
