Brilliant course for the money

Such a great course for what it costs always in great condition, pace of play can sometimes be an issue though but that’s how all places are sometimes I guess

For a Municipal Course

For a MC this has got to be one of the best in the country. BBC ( Burnley Borough Council) get some stick when rightly deserved. But all involved with TGC should take a bow.

Even the after golf food should be applauded thank goodness Dan ( Head honcho) can cook better than his golf.

Well done TGC
