Wow! Some solid golf on a really nice course made for a pretty darn good match! The course kept it exciting with nice fairways speckled with tough bunkers, fun and friendly second cuts alongside wicked out of bounds water, and undulating greens that were seriously speedy, but rolled darn pure. Yet another very good day indeed....

Ya know when part of your game just goes bye bye? You feel like being stranded on an a desert island, in this case, my island was a a putting green of unreadability. You could have placed a golf cup 1 foot in front of my ball and I still would have struggled. Grrrrr. Frustrating...

I have done it! It has occurred… I have beaten the “Evil Swede”! And on an amazing links course to boot! A course that was quite simply one of the most beautiful courses we have ever played in The Netherlands. The Texelse is a links course. It’s located on the Island of Texel (obviously) and...

This is a monster of a course as in, very spread out. As a matter of fact, if Godzilla mated with a golf resort, this is what you’d get. I think we actually walked an extra couple of kilometers on top of a decent 14k already! It has four 9 hole courses, a driving range, cozy restaurant putting...

This is one of our favourite courses… It’s like someone decided to lay down a meandering golf course through a pristine pine forest. The 27 fun, challenging holes are not impossible or unreachable. Nestled in a beautiful pine forest the lovely fairways (even in winter) are a joy to pound drives down. The trees all...

The Beemster golf course embodies the Dutch term: “gezellig”. It is a cozy 9 hole par 32 course with a tight, links-style design and an open view of the surrounding fields. It’s challenging but not very long (only 2107 meters) so accuracy is king here. The small-‘ish’ greens are nice and accomodating (Colin had his...

Now, some people like a nice walk spoiled, or an excuse to get out in nature, …or prefer a challenge that tests the limits of one’s abilities, …or just like “scoring”. The Drentsce offers all of these. The 27 holes gives you a variety of combinations and getting a tee time the same day shouldn’t...

Man talk about a rough start… on the first hole (a par 4) I shot a 8 and “Da Swede” hit a birdie 3. Yuck. Followed it up with a couple bogeys and thought I was coming back, and then… shot a 9 on a par 4! Owwwwch… 11 over after four holes!? Uh oh…...
