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

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

When we arrived at the social club car park to be met by Alan he took time to explain everything to us and was also there to meet us at the first tee to explain everything about the course .
Kevin who I had been in contact with throughout our booking was away on holiday but took the time to ring Alan and make sure everything was perfect on the day .
The course is an absolute credit to everyone involved Volunteers, Members and greenkeepers.

Exactly what golf should be
As an experienced golfer I can say that this course is very well maintained, an excellent routing with fun and memorable golf holes. However, I was compelled to leave this review because of the fantastic attitude of the staff at Drax (specifically Kevin Harrison). I played this course with my girlfriend for her first time on a golf course. Upon arrival I’ve never felt so welcomed at a golf club. Kevin introduced himself to me and my girlfriend, figured out the best way for us to get onto the course with as little pressure as possible (not easy given a club competition was going on), and all in all made my girlfriend feel at home on the golf course. He came and checked in with us as he walked past after 4 or so holes to check that we were enjoying ourselves.People like Kevin are exactly what golf needs right now to ensure that ladies feel welcomed into the golf world. Had my girlfriend had a different experience she may have walked away from the game, but instead she enjoyed herself thoroughly and is keen to play again.
