Top heathland course

Dunscar is an excellent heathland course & is always in great condition.
It's a challenging track woven across the lower Pennine hills, which means you rarely have a flat lie. Therefore position off the tee can be crucial at times.
The rough isn't overly penal, but the coarse heathland grass can make it difficult to get out of at times.
The greens are superb, flat & true, even if some of them are like putting on the side of a hill.
The welcome is always friendly, all in all a great experience.

Cracker

Dunscar is a little cracker. It's up & down a bit, with a number of holes on the side of slopes, but it's a cracker. There are a handful of blind drives, but there's nothing too ominous on the other side, so you can go for the marker post.
It's tight in a couple of places with OOB markers, as I found to my cost!
There's hardly a flat putt on the course, but the greens are superb. Bunkers excellent too.
Top this off with great views, friendly staff & members & all for £10 at 7am on Golf Now, what's not to like?

First visit

Played on Sunday 7th July 2019. Quite a tight course but longer than expected and I found it very challenging (in fact it beat me up quite badly). The par 3's seem extremely difficult, but the par 5's slightly boring. I played in the evening so the Course was quiet but I did catch up the 3 ball ahead eventually. A lot of holes cross each other which is off-putting when driving, for fear of endangering people. Sadly there was a group of 5 playing together which eventually fed back to me and caused delays. They were also very loud, shouting and cheering and even throwing putters at missed Puts. I did enquire after the round (the bar had shut though and few staff) and was assured they were members who played regularly. They should know better then so a slight concern this sort of behaviour is tolerated. 9Iassume a 4-ball is still the Max?)

A cracker

A cracking course. Well laid out across the undulating terrain with lots of swales & hollows. Yes, there are a few blind drives, but it adds to the fun.
Greens are in superb condition, can't say the same for the bunkers.
Top this off with the views of the surrounding countryside & you have a course not to be missed.

Hidden Gem - Seak it out!

Good challenge for all levels of golfer, very friendly members and staff with excellent breakfast!
Course in good condition considering the lack of rain, greens run true and challenging approach shots.

Fairways in very good condition with some difficulty stances at times due to some of the undulations. Greens in very good order too and ran true even though they were recently dressed. Excellent value for money - paid ?11 for a Sunday morning tee on a Golf Now special

A nice course which is very well maintained with some beautiful views of Lancashire. The only draw back for me is that there are a couple of extemely tight holes, I think they are 11 and 12 known locally as bomb alley. These couple of holes can prove frustrating when the course is busy as you have to wait for the green and or tee areas to be clear before you can drive.
Its very reasonably priced however and the resident pro is a top guy who is helpful and approachable.
