The Perfect Course for Crappy Golfers

May 29, 2013 by Daniel McBane 6 Comments

Desert Golf Course Australia

This golf course in Coober Pedy, South Australia seems tailor-made for someone like me. I tend to keep off the grass anyway on the rare occasions when I subject myself to a round of golf, as the balls I hit seem to prefer the sand. Or the water. Or anything but the grass. In fact, over the course of nine holes, I generally spend a few minutes swinging a club and several hours crawling through various shrubs and bushes looking for my lost golf balls. I wouldn’t have that problem here.

    Yup, it’s a place for me too, I always used to lose my ball in bushes, no bushes, no problem.

      I can see one big bush and a little tree in the picture, though. I know where my ball is going.

    Interesting stuff. Where exactly is the grass? Are they waiting for it to grow?

      I don’t think there’s ever any grass there, but I’m not sure. I’ve never been to Australia myself.

      Many people seem to feel that way–makes you wonder why they even put grass on golf courses…

Welcome!

As the more astute among you may have guessed, my name is Daniel McBane. I've been traveling and working overseas for almost ten years now and have finally decided to document some of the strange, crazy or just plain funny encounters and observations from my travels. I've also added a travel guide section, figuring I should reward my four readers by providing at least something of use. Read more on my about page.
