Yes its more of my CRAPP, as today it was off to play Yeppoon Golf Course. As per our previous golf days, Andrew and I had to contend with a hefty breeze again. Yeppoon is not a long course but the wind in our faces on some holes made it feel longer. Fortunately the weather was kind, mid 20’s with little humidity, unlike our previous games were the humidity drained us. Anyway here are the ratings:
Design – 16 out of 20 (The design and layout was very enjoyable, only negative being an abundance of dogleg’s)
Condition – 17 out of 20 (Considering its the end of the dry season with not much rain in recent months, the course was in good nick, particularly the greens, which were about the best I’ve encountered on my trip).
Cost – 16 out of 20 (The cost of $26 for 18 holes was very reasonable, even considering it was mid week)
Visual Appeal – 15 out of 20 (A good looking parklands course. The initial view coming up the main drive to the clubhouse just lowers the rating slightly)
Facilities – 7.5 out of 10 (Good facilities but not all available due to COVID. Funny how all the clubs we have played have different interpretations of the COVID requirements)
Ambience 7.5 out of 10 (It had a good vibe about it considering it was not a Saturday comp. The club has a strong membership and both Andrew and I stated we’d be happy to be a member here).
So the CRAPP rating is 79, which is the highest rating of any course I’ve played on during BBOT. Still a few courses to play before I get home so we’ll see how Yeppoon finishes at the end.
