For my Queens Golf Club Golf Course Review I have been wanting to play the Queens Park Golf Course in the South West for the last couple of years since I have been hearing the stories of its history and heritage and that it used to be a top golf course. The course is a classical park golf course with forests of mature trees all around and ready to catch those errant tee shots.I found the course to be in really great condition and the greens were fantastic as they were both receptive and true. The course has some of the most intimidating driving holes and you can clearly see its old championship heritage. Even though the course may present a challenge to the higher handicapper there will be lots of chances to make pars on the great short holes which are all very fair and will reward good shots. The course is very up and down so expect to have lots of exercise and get used to playing shots into elevated greens. So if your are out for a great days golf at a reasonable price this course is for you and as far as I am concerned deserves it place as one of the top golf courses in the South West.

I was really very excited to go and do my Queens Golf Club Golf Course Review on the Bank holiday Monday as I had been there the year before in the summer and was treated to a very well put together course. This time however things were very different to start off with the course doesn't have any nets for practice so your first few holes are spent warming up. Getting ready to hit my first drive I was greeted by a man and a young girl walking up the fairway to meet me without any idea that I was about to tee off. The course itself has an idyllic Scenery and Environment with huge trees and hilly fairways but it has no Atmosphere around the Course for golf due to all the non golfers hanging around. On the business end of the course it was in bad condition and I rated the Greens as the worst I have played on in Dorset, I cant believe how they have changed since I last played. The Course Yardage Marking is not to bad with many orange posts dotted around for the 150 and 200 yd markers, these proved to be a big help. Another problem for me was the Cleanliness and Manicuring of the Course which was really poor and I can imagine the ground staff not being able to keep up with the litter from the public. One of the highlights for me was the Layout and Design of the Course which is still excellent for me although a lot of the holes have been made shorter. Course management is paramount and the Challenge presented by the Course is very steep with some really difficult signature holes. My advice is not to go out there with your driver blazing as the fairways all seem to run off into the surrounding parkland, so many holes need some thinking and a few short irons. The Queens Golf Club Golf Course is excellent value for money but be warned that you will need to enjoy your round with loads of other people who are not golfers and this will test your concentration.
