golf heaven = JLPGA tourny course.


Recommended Posts

I received  a nice  invite to a  LPGA track   a cpl of weeks back , the  course was in immaculate cond for the time of year ( cherry blossom season)   and the clubhouse is  a thing of beauty.

greens at 10.5 on stimp and  billiard table smooth.

yards:  6890  blue tees

great  day  , really great day out  , we played 27 holes.  we were  in fine,fine  form.

36/36/34  for the 3 nines. i. it cud have been anything this day with a  bit more attention to detail.

errrrgh missed a cpl of very makeable  putts and my chipping was insanely good ( thank you tourstage x-wedges!)

8 birdies , 2 doubles , 2 bogies  on the day  AND...........  4  birds in a row  on front nine to break (  smash) my  birdie record in a round,  -let alone on one nine- let alone-......... in.......a .......row!!

 

anyway it was one of the bestdays out EVER on a course, hardly  anyone out  and a few nice liquid refreshments  to follow!

 heres  cpl of  snaps of , JDM golf gold !

Very nice!!!    While I love the, "play golf and then go home" simplicity of US style golf,  I do enjoy the full day experience of going to a nice course in Japan starting with a tasty breakfast, followed by a full 1 hr lunch with beer at the turn,  then after completing the round end with an Onsen bath to relieve the tension before heading home.   We have many Sakura trees planted here in WA but I've yet to see one on a golf course.   Such a nice view with the Sakuras.

distances and green reads where the guys  needed it was spot on .
