Is it only a 9 hole track?


Not worth your trip mate, that's for sure!

It's right next to the passenger terminal at Outer Harbour. Yes, 9 holes, not overly well maintained or irrigated, exposed and always windy as buggery.

It's 15 minutes from home, by noon or later on a Sunday you walk on with literally, I mean literally nobody at the place. When I teed off there were 3 cars in the car park, mine, the lad in the shop and one other, didn't see anyone in my travels. Just how I like it, just wish the course was in better nick.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

I always enjoyed my rounds at North Haven. Not in amazing nick, but at least its better than North Lakes, which is also ran by the same mob.

At least the course has a somewhat interesting layout

looking at the golflink - daily handicap calculator, it hasn't been updated with my new handicap whatever that works out to be, but going on my previous results, my handicap is around 33.

so will go to the club during the week to get some clarification and look at playing in the comp on sunday and well hope for the best :lol:

Just keep calling the club MT, someone has to manually punch them in and they are just being lazy. Keep calling every day until its sorted out.

I didnt and ended up waiting 7 weeks ](*,)

North Haven now have a new lease holder, the former golf manager from BTM. As far as I know the are JAG golf and they say they are going to fix the issues with irrigation etc. It has quite a nice layout but I've only played it in summer and it's always been dry and the fairways have been crap.

Good stuff MT.. You can win some $$ with that mark, so make the most if it. If you can shoot something in the low 90's you will clean up.

Out of curiosity I checked my card against stableford and this week's comp which is par.
Racked up 42pts and +12.
If I replicate that on Sunday I will be delighted

Ease up.....the good thing is I will be towards the end of the comp when I start, so I will be able to see the scores on the screen that I need to aim for......and just beat it by 1 or 2. But the chances of me being in control like that is I am better buying a lotto ticket

Even with a 30 handicap, that's a little hard to do in a par comp..

Got an 11ish tee off tomorrow
Will get to course about 30mins before for a light loosener and a warm up swing
Be devastated if I couldn't end up at least +3
