Having traveled up for a week of golf with a group from my local golf club (plus some ring ins), Sanctuary Cove Golf & Country Club Palms course was the official first game for the week.
Portsea Golf Club
In an effort to get my quest to play Australia’s top 100 golf courses on track again, playing Portsea Golf Club, one of the oldest in the region, worked well with a weekend trip away which had been planned to the Mornington Peninsula.
Travelling to the Masters?
Planning on attending the Masters at Augusta National Golf Club or thinking about it. Here are some great tips to help you enjoy the journey even more.
Augusta National Golf Club
Augusta National Golf Club. What more can be said, other than a sensational course. Just to be clear I didn’t play this course but visited during the 2011 Masters, an experience I will never forget.
The Masters 2011
Ever since I was a young boy, I would get up early in Australia to watch the US Masters tournament being played. Growing up watching Greg Norman play at Augusta National, I was inspired to one day make the trek to Augusta, Georgia, to actually watch the Masters being played.
Heritage Golf and Country Club St Johns Course
The Heritage Golf & Country Club has been a course I have struggled to get a game on for a while. This ‘Signature’ Jack Nicklaus designed course is the first one to be built in Australia.
Aussie Golf Quest Update March 2015
Welcome back to the new Aussie Golf Quest site. I know I have been MIA for a while but there has been a few changes in my life over the last year, not playing much golf, the old site not being updated, moving cities (now based in Melbourne).
RACV Cape Schanck Resort
RACV Cape Schanck designed by Robert Trent Jones Jnr, is a great public access course in the Mornington Peninsula. One of my favourite courses in Australia was right next door, The National Golf Club Old Course, by the same designer.
Royal Melbourne Golf Club East Course
With so much tournament golf on TV the last few months featuring this magnificent club, I knew it was time to return and finish my last course on the Melbourne Sandbelt.
Hamilton Island Golf Club
Hamilton Island golf course would have to be described as a great club located in paradise. Located off the Northern Queensland coast, the weather is tropical with high humidity, but ideal to get outside for a game, then hit the bar at the pool.
