This has to be the best new course in Thailand, especially in Hua Hin. The Thai Nordic Group |
||||||||||||||
|
|
is using Pacific Coast Design from Australia to carry out the master plan of building two golf |
||||||||||||||
|
|
courses. The East Course, a championship golf course with a par of 72 measuring 7343 |
||||||||||||||
|
|
yards. The West Course, designed to be a resort course of par 72 at a comfortable 7064 |
||||||||||||||
|
|
yards and will commence construction in 2007. | ||||||||||||||
|
|
|||||||||||||||
|
|
The designers have aimed to create a golf course which is as in keeping as possible with its |
||||||||||||||
|
|
natural surroundings. The most important features are the natural creeks that run through the |
||||||||||||||
|
|
course and the natural rock that's been used as design features on many of the holes. |
||||||||||||||
|
|
Many of the original trees have been kept and many new trees have been planted in order to |
||||||||||||||
|
|
frame the holes. It was very important in the design concept to create a course that could be a |
||||||||||||||
|
|
grueling test even for top golfers in the world, yet also very playable and enjoyable to the |
||||||||||||||
|
|
average golfer. |
||||||||||||||
|
|
|||||||||||||||
|
All the holes provide the golfer with a safe route, but the more adventurous player may take |
|||||||||||||||
|
|
the higher risk option with potential greater rewards. The design offers generous fairways for |
||||||||||||||
|
the shorter hitter yet becoming narrower for the longer hitter. The greens are large with many |
|||||||||||||||
|
pin positions with different degrees of difficulty. The course is well protected by beautifully |
|||||||||||||||
|
sculptured bunkers. |
|||||||||||||||
|
Much thought went into choosing the grass, it was decided to use seashore paspalum |
|||||||||||||||
|
for the tees, fairways and the rough. This grass gives a wonderful playing surface and a |
|||||||||||||||
|
beautiful emerald green colour. The decision was made to use tifeagle bermuda grass on the |
|||||||||||||||
|
greens. This hybrid Bermuda grass is now being recognized as the best putting surface in |
|||||||||||||||
| tropical areas. No expense has been spared in making the golf course as best as possible, the | |||||||||||||||
| same goes for the clubhouse. The view from the clubhouse is truly stunning, and gives a | |||||||||||||||
| panoramic view of the whole course. The clubhouse facilities include fine dining in the | |||||||||||||||
| restaurant, a well stocked golf shop and luxurious locker rooms. Black Mountain intends to | |||||||||||||||
| offer service and dining to a standard that is normally only found in the finest of hotels. | |||||||||||||||
