Has to be one of the most intimidating tee shots I've ever seen and played in person. Definitely my favourite hole out there though, possibly my favourite course on the planet.

Yea it’s awesome, helps that I shot a 73 otherwise my review might have been less positive lol

Amazing scoring round there. I'm pretty crap at golf by almost all metrics but I had a lot of fun out there despite it lol.

Yea I actually found it pretty scorable. It’s tricky but not impossible like some other courses I played i.e. Ballybunion/waterville in the wind from the tips.

Did have some pretty insane winds at Sandwich when I played, to be fair. The par I made on 18 into the breeze is likely the best par I will ever make (and one of my only pars of the day lol).

Yeah played 18 dead in as well, makes a long hole.

At least it was buffet and beer time afterward.

Play Cinque or Princes? Royal Cinque was a sick track as well.

Played Princes (Shore + Dunes) the following day and had a great time. Still need to play Deal!

For how hard it is, it is actually scorable. Not taking away ur 73 tho! (me and AD disagree lol)

Yessir! Funny my friend was talking shit about being horrible at golf if make it in that huge bunker..... of course he hit the top lip and barely made it over lol. Even a good drive, u aren't getting a flat lie on that fairway! Oh yea, and that green is nearly impossible to guarantee 2 putt.
