The Course
Mid-Herts is one of the longest established private member clubs in the county of Hertfordshire, UK. It has a beautiful 18 hole country course set out on Gustard Wood Common, noted for its open landscape with heather, juniper and other heathland plants and flora.
The course appeals to the golfer who likes to be presented with challenges and options in order to achieve a good score.
There are several places where accuracy is needed in order to avoid the penalties of encroaching trees, thickish rough and out of bounds. Elsewhere there are opportunities to gain advantage with long hitting. The putting surfaces are fast with modest undulating slopes and with three holes featuring two-tier greens. Greenside and fairway bunkers are strategically positioned, requiring skill at both long and short recovery shots. Except for special events there is no need for golfers to book tee times. There are four starting points on the course, which allow for 2 and 3 or 4 ball games to commence at specific times off different tees. Golfers can normally expect to complete their round in 3 hours 30 minutes. |
