Penina Photo Portrait
« on: April 29, 2011, 04:38:12 PM »
So,
just returned from another lovely trip to Portugal's delightful Algarve region. Splashed out this time for a week in Penina - Sir Henry Cotton's retirement project and fitting epitaph. I know very little of Sir Henry's design philosophy but the evidence seems to point in obvious directions. Greensites VERY Ross-like, false-fronted runups and very subtly contoured. Bunkering quite strategic with water hazards really the only penal elements. Conditioning was really excellent.

Weather on arrival - HAILSTONES:




















cheers,
FBD.

Thanks Marty.  Brings back great memories.  I played there a bit with my dad when I was about 10 or 11, more than 30 years ago!
