Within the Golfshake Course Section, there are over 235,000 independent reviews submitted by regular golfers, which has contributed to a valuable resource for those looking to discover Highly Recommended venues. Rated across a variety of criteria, and reflecting the expectations of everyday golfers, we have a comprehensive database of information to consume and share, particularly during a time when online reviews are becoming increasingly vital for all industries, including golf.
Many of you will be aware of the #GolfshakeTop100s and our various Best of features across the website, but delving into the stats from recent times has revealed that many venues have increased significantly in popularity with those who have left reviews. These rising stars all saw a noted rise in their average rating in 2018 compared with 2016. Whether that suggests an improvement in course conditions and facilities, more affordable green fees, or simply more generous reviewers, is unclear, but it certainly identifies courses, clubs and resorts in your local area and beyond that could be worth a visit.
