Looking down the 12th at Pedham Place.

One of my Favourite courses. In good nick for end of season, and the twilight starts at 12, and only costs £10.

They call it an inland links, which I dont like. Links courses have to be played on links land. I prefer links style.

When the wind blows, its the nearest thing you'll get to a links 70 miles from the coast. 

Looks just up my street, Danny, will have to get over for a game sometime soon.

Lets make an arrangement. Pedham is quite a long way for me, let alone you, David.

Then as it depends on when you are coming it would be better if you let us know what date suits you, as you know I am pretty flexible, apart from the body.

I think you'd like it. The clubhouse is only a portacabin type thing. But I think the course is smashing. It is at its best in the summer months, but always playable in the winter, rarely any temporay's. Let us know when you fancy it. Very easy to find, just off junction 3 M25.

Mon to Fri, they are doing 18 holes, sausage and onion baguette for £16.

Check out the site.

It has some tough par 3's

Every par 3 is tough to me, Danny.

How on earth can we decide when to play in the hope that you can make it. Better you tell us when YOU can make it and we will fit in with your scedule, aren't we nice to you.

I'll try my best. Busy time of year for me.

I Can't see me being able to get a free day till the new year. All my golf at the moment is on the spur.

I have never played there , Keith, so cannot offer any comment at all as to whether the course is worth playing or not. I like the idea of the inland links, myself, as I play a similar one at South Winchester.

I always base my views on a course by the condition of the greens as without good greens it is always going to be a struggle to play to ones handicap.

Keith, do you like the 12th, picture above? If not, then its probably links golf you don't like. If you think Pedham is windy, never play princes at Sandwich in February.

I really like pedham, the only thing that lets it down is the Clubportacabin. 

Ah!!!! Princes, now there is a great test of golf. One of my favourite courses on the Kent coast.
