A two hour drive to Ynys Môn or the Isle of Anglesey on a bright beautiful Tuesday morning put ones mind into summer mode.
A nice little par 3 course with some degree of difficulty, allows those that aren’t members of golf clubs to go out and enjoy an hour or so of relaxation. If you haven’t got your clubs with you, no problem, there are sets available for hire. There is a discount scheme available on fees, running in conjunction with Oriel theatre adjacent to the golf shop.
A very friendly welcome was given to me by Brian on my arrival, and in the pro shop an excellent stock of golfing equipment was to be had to entice you to take the game more seriously.
Brian and Paul’s hospitality made one feel at ease, giving good advice on the equipment, and the course.
A new driving range was under construction which will give an added incentive to those wanting to take up the game, and those already playing, plenty of practice to improve their driving and short game skills.
I had the privilege of meeting an ex Captain of one of the islands clubs, who made a generous donation to the “Penny challenge” and played 9 holes with an ex county player who was recuperating from major surgery.
My thanks go to Brian and Paul for allowing me the courtesy of playing, and for participating in the “penny challenge.”
