4 Ball Heaven

Been 15 years since last played at Cardross, Robert in pro shop was 1st class as always, played with my son, son in law & friend, who all where playing the course for the 1st time, we picked probably the best and last day of the weather for 2019.

Course is testing, which we all need and was in majestic condition for time of year, well laid out and good split in par 3,4 & 5's with blind holes and dog legs, hilly, but spread out well, I would recommend & did use an electric golf trolley as I have grey hair.

All agreed fantastic course and will be back regularly and will need to sample the club house offerings on our return.

Enjoyable round

Lovely course and in great condition. The greens on the day we played were a little slow as the grass could have been shorter. That is the only thing that stopped this course getting 5 stars.

Really good outlook in pleasant surroundings

Course was very wet underfoot but to their credit all greens were on. Would like to play again in the summer. Given what we paid for the round it was good value for money

One to play

Overall the weather was a real pain however this did not diminish the enjoyment my brother and I had playing this course and we will be back.
The course layout was quirky and really interesting and we found this a great feature of the course in relation to the twists and turns on some of the holes, seriously we had a fun time despite the weather.
Due to rainfall some of the bunkers were flooded and the continious rain made conditions almost unplayable but the greens were in really good condition and true and the fairways were firm, impressions we'll be back as my son played the day after and not a puddle in sight and bunkers in play, great recovery and implies the course is quite something when the sun shines.

Great value

Very enjoyable round on a well maintained and challenging course. I was paired up to make a three ball which worked out great as the two guys were very nice. This may not be desirable for all, but for £15 you can't really complain!

Beautifully scenic

I really enjoyed my round, very easy to negotiate round from green to next tee box. Course in great condition. If only my driving had been better,I would have scored better. That aside, 1 small gripe was sprinkler hoses on several greens as I managed to bump and run into a couple of them. Weather was terrific. Great day. :-)
