sherdley park St Helens

played this for the first time on full greens yesterday with a couple of my mate who have never played it so expectation was high and so was the scoring so we thought...
well the weather was a mixed bag but the course was very good condition, some realy good holes on the front 9 but the back 9 is as some one else has said easier. nice to com in after the front being a little hilly (not the massive hills like some others local but slopes are wicked) some very tasty par 3's you can realy have a go at them with a mid to low iron. the greens are great don't hold water and are nicley looked after. the fairways are well very good but like i said some do slope badly, (so be carefull were you aim as you could be of the fairways to the oppersite side if not carefull). over all very good had a great time, shame the club house shut at 17:30 we got in at 17:15 and told we could have a beer but only if we could drink it before half past (so we ordered TWO each !!!!!!!) staff was great as they served the guys who finished after us...

this place is worth a quick round if your local.... the course is in great nik at the moment, so please go and enjoy as we did...
