The highlight for me on the course were the greens and I scored them a 10 out of 10, the fairways were good and the general layout of the course is excellent.

The Pro shop was not in full force yet. The halfway house requires a bit more of a better mood (staff). There was one particular gent on the course (whom we believe to be a marshall), who got upset with us and a bit agerssive... He told us to hurry up in a rude way, WHILE WE WERE WAITING FOR THE FOURBALL IN FRONT OF US TO GET TO THEIR TEE-SHOTS. I said to him, "I hope you're joking"... and he got even more rude... He's lucky he didn't get a sand wedge wrapped around his neck.... Overall, lovely course, crap staff and management.

Even though it's around Jozi, it's got a sort of Bushveld feel to it. The constant change of elevation and blind tee shots makes this course challenging. If you're a long hitter do not be too tempted with the driver. Play percentage golf and you'll finish with a good score. Given it's a new course I think it's beautiful. With a good season or two's rainfall this course is more than likely to climb up the rankings. ]]> Wed, 08 Dec 2010 07:17:14 +0000 665-106 http://www.rateyourcourse.co.za/component/content/article/53-gauteng-golf-courses/665-jackal-creek-golf-club.html First nine is very nice!

The work on the N12 Highway detracts from the peaceful setting but that hopefully will be over soon! The course is in such good condition from all the lovely rain and the wonderful friendly pro-shop staff give you a great welcome! There are some really challenging holes which make the course a really enjoyable outing - the 4th and 9th I relish and the 11th is a challenging little hole like the 15th. The 17th is such a tease off the tee and the 14th too! A super course and a great outing.

Another highlight is the pulpit which finds the tee way above the green and the Golfer need to judge the shot to perfection with a narrow green. This is a great course to play with combination of long and short par 3's and some good par 5's. ]]> Sun, 18 Oct 2009 16:12:06 +0100 595-65 http://www.rateyourcourse.co.za/component/content/article/53-gauteng-golf-courses/595-irene-country-club.html I love Irene...it is great fun, very pleasant environment, and a reasonable challenge.

I loved it.....you could go big, and stay in play, but the shorter more accurate hitters weren't penalised. The approaches to the greens were critical, as the greens were very tricky. A really great design. The only thing that takes getting used to is this new Kentucky Blue? grass. It has its own nap!
