PHUKET COUNTRY CLUB COURSE is a challenging 3575 yards (championship tee) par 37, 9-hole course, particularly suitable for the low handicap golfer. The picturesque beauty of the scenery and layout, somewhat softens the difficulty of the course. Watch out for those wayward shots; all are penalized either landing in water or out-of-bounds. However, with five tee-off boxes at each hole, you have a choice of making it less of an ordeal.
The distinct feature is water- water comes into play 90% of the time. Black swans glide amongst the water lilies taking very little heed of your slices! (Hint: high handicap golfers, remember to purchase a few dozen second hand balls from the Pro Shop before tee off! You just might need a few!)
Old Course
Phuket Country Club, provides a strenuous resort 18-hole, 6483 yards, par 72 golf game. Hole #10, 557 yards par 5, is one of the most unusual hole you will find anywhere; a dog-leg right that snakes around an enormous lake and is reachable in one! To achieve it, you must aim 90 degree right of the fairway - and be able to carry your drive 240 yards over the water. See layout hole #10 diagram. The course is fun and friendly. Set in a valley, the fairways meandering through the hills and limestone cliffs.
You will traverse 3 distinct environments:- six holes in undulating hills, six holes on the level and six holes through landscape forest. It is generally not humiliating or intimidating (depending on your temperament, of course!). Wayward shots are not too severely penalized.
Although high handicappers have the best round of their lives and keep coming back for more, the low handicap golfers still find the course quite a challenge.
