You may think a 12 hole, ex Power Station course may be short of great challenges. Drax is a real hidden gem, lovely course with some testing holes. There are some lovely walks & even the towers added some "atmosphere" to the surroundings but it is great how the trees now camouflage them in the middle of the course.

very good course with open approaches, ground is a little soft underfoot but all holes are well maintained and greens are in good shape.

Been at the club now as a member for approximately 3 months,the course is very good and gives you a fair chance to score. There are plenty of risk and reward holes, and several holes which you need to play target golf to set up the birdie chance.Personally, I would suggest that a draw bias would be an advantage here, as 7th, 9th/18th, & the 13th all need to be played accordingly.

Lovely little course
Course was a little challenging for me as I am a lady golfer and my drive seems to reach all the ditches so, lesson learned for next time. Really enjoyed playing thoughReviewer Rating

Course plays well, however there tends to be some very ignorant folk playing - Zipping balls around you with no shout, dont bother ringing any bells, loud around the course/poor golfing etiquette. 3 out of the 4 times I have been sadly.

Played after a very dry spell of weather and have to say the greens were the best I've played on all year and the rest of the course was in nothing short of exceptional condition.

Duncan - Selby rated 4 out of 5
Reviewed May 26 2020
The course is in very good condition and challenging as mostly tight with some blind greens. A bit of a bottleneck at times but the course was busy and not too many hold ups. Would certainly consider joining, as the terms are very favourable at the moment, if I wasn\'t a member elsewhere

Tough track
I'm a member here. It's a very tight tough course. A real test for players of all abilities. A lot of work going on at the moment to improve further an already good course. Even course knowledge can't help you some days. Still needs a few more trees out but I'm told that's happening soon. If you're thinking of trying it for the first time I recommend going with a member who can give you tips on where to aimReviewer Rating

Lovely course spoilt by 2 members
My son and I visited Drax for the first time, we had spoken to a couple of staff who were extremely friendly and provided some good advice. Unfortunately we were approached by two club members on the 12th, one of them said he was the president although I think he meant Captain, they bluntly told us we were incorrectly dressed and that there was a very strict dress code. We explained that we hadn't been informed of this by any member of staff but what really upset us was the way these 2 club members spoke to us. If this golf club wants to attract more members especially the younger generation then I suggest the captain and the members of the club take a look at how the staff in the social club and the green keepers treat the paying public.The staff were welcoming and friendly and it's only because of the staff that we will return to play again.Reviewer Rating

Really interesting and tricky course... I thought it was going to be a like a 9-hole pitch and putt...but boy was I wrong! This is a very tight and well kept course...and is actually now a 12 hole course..with different tees on some holes to create 18 holes... I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the greens as well..some of the best I've played on in Yorkshire..but it was summer so I guess they were at the best then. Overall a surprisingly good and difficult course...especially for the price.
