Reviewed Apr 25 2019 by Reading - rated 5 out of 5 Stunning natural beauty
Played here for 3rd time and still love it. The rugged natural surroundings are simply amazing and views incredibly. Need to think carefully about clubbing as many holes play shorter than true distances. Will be back!Course (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Apr 13 2019 by Alan G - rated 4 out of 5 very hard course for beginners as there are a few holes that need to be played not by yardage but by the course it self. very hilly so need to be fit

Reviewed Jul 26 2020 by Sean Dadswell - rated 5 out of 5 Excellent course bargain price
I’ve played this course a few times as I live near by and it’s noticeably harder then many of the courses near by but very enjoyable. Definitely need to plan your shots as you pay for it if you go for glory. As everyone says the 17th is a cracking hole off the top. And stay out of the rough as we got through quite a few balls. Great course if you like to challenge yourself. Scored 103 and 23 ish handicap. Like I say it’s hardCourse (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Jul 15 2020 by James J - rated 5 out of 5 A Grown Up Thinkers Course
Want a course where you just tee up and smash it down a fairway and then decide what's needed on shot two ? dont come to Halifax GC then, this is a course where each hole needs studying from a layout point of view, wind, elevation and position of the green. Not only that, which fairway gives you the best chance of hitting a green in regulation. Even the driving range is difficult as you are hitting across a valley of "ball gone" rough. We played it on a mildly windy warm day and found some shots required two or three clubs more. First few holes are challenging but for mid-handicappers are nearly all shot holes, so think them through and you've got a good chance of a decent score. Then you get to the 17th ... wow .. first time you play it, you will probably have no idea what club to use ... which is why you have to go back again. Great course, very friendly pro and members and we will definitely go back again, hoping for a windless calm day.Course (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Jul 7 2020 by Phil / Leeds - rated 5 out of 5 The essence of Golf
First time playing this stunning James Braid / McKensie course and I hope to return many times in future. The course is a challenge for golfers of all abilities as the course has been expertly sculptured from the natural landscape. If you love golf that is closer to the game's origins combined with excellent greens and a welcoming clubhouse, then Halifax GC must go on your bucket list.Traversing the course requires some strength and stamina - a vertical climb of 81 storeys in the round! Many of the Members were carrying their bags - they must be made of sterner stuff in this neck of God's County!
19th hole - the club house setting looking down the valley towards Huddersfield is wonderful, especially sat on the terrace with a pint of Wainwrights Golden Ale.
A minor grumble - for the first-time visitor, orientation guides are a little lacking. Standing on the 6th tee, we were faced with three alternate plausibe target flags and the layout map couldn't resolve the dilemma. Fortunately, a Member kindly set out bearings straight. On the final fairway, there's a marker post adjacent to the first tee - this might be a line off the tee, but from a blind fairway it's the wrong line completely!

Played this course during quite adverse weather conditions. Driving rain and windy. All the holes are different and are challenging. The views from the top are stunning.

Reviewed Jul 11 2017 by - rated 5 out of 5 Played in a mid summer open this year and was blown away by the place. Everyone talks about the 17th but this does not do justice to the rest of the course. Very strategic off the tee with super wide fairways that challenge you to leave good angles into the green. How they got it round here in 1912 I\'ll never know!!!\Highlights for me where...\2nd shot into the first hole, strange ravine right and a green with 4 foot of slope leading down from left side, tough to know where to miss.\The elevated 4th green. Wow! Small target and a shot filled with drama.\The short, driveable 11th. Totally blind with 2 marker posts. Reminded me of tenby, another braid course.\Wonderful old clubhouse with some relics from the clubs golden past. An absolute treat for anyone who appreciates a good test.

Reviewed May 31 2012 by Darren L - rated 5 out of 5 Superbly maintained moorland course. Every club in the bag has to be used and from time to time, I just had to stop to take in the views. Par 3 17th is one of the most spectacular holes I've ever played. Friendly off the course too. Has to be the best £20 spent this year!
