I shall post a few of my favourites of 2007.
#5 Wallasey: This is a cool pic not because of the hole, though it is a fine hole indeed, but because the golfers have the right attitude about the game.
#1 Nairn - keep it simple.
All the other photos are a reminder of what golf can be if we keep an open mind. Of course, I am referring to Kington. In 2008 I hope to convince some GCAers to give up the odd tee time at a trophy club and come have a look. I can guarantee two things: you will never have seen a course like Kington before and you will not forget your experience of Kington. Besides, how can you not want to visit a course which cuts its fairways once per year?
A sneak preview of the 18th - Kington does sit on a hill!
Tee shot at #4. Show me a shot which looks more natural than this.
Sideview of the 15th. The sun shows off the micro-undulations wonderfully.
Approach to #17. The fairways are necessarily wide because of the wind at 1200 feet, but random bad lies which make ball flight difficult to control are enough challenge for nearly all. You will learn to worm burn shots or feel there aren't enough spanners in your bag to do the job.
Tee shot #18. This one is to freak out Mark B.
From behind the 18th. The scale of Kington is incredible.
