On arriving at Llandudno (North Wales) G.C. I was greeted by the secretary Nick Kitchen and then introduced to the past Captain Mr. Alec Harvey, who kindly escorted me to the first tee and gave me courtesy after explaining to visitors on the tee the challenge I had set myself.
The weather was overcast and breezy, as one would expect on a seaside links course, very open, so having an accurate drive off many of the tees is essential, otherwise you pay the price.
The course was well presented visually with good greens and fairways, a course that has a good reputation with societies and visitors, as they come back year after year.
Very open to the element of wind as all links courses are, this can be a true test as it only takes a couple of bad holes to wreck your card.
