New Derrick golf course offers 101 flavours, not just vanilla
29 May, 2014
Golf architect, Jeff Mingay, says the old Derrick Golf Course lacked variety. That is now far from the case as evidenced by nine holes of the new layout, which opened 1-1/2 weeks ago, and the other nine possibly playable as early as this fall. Everything on the course has been touched; everything is essentially new: bunkers, fairways, greens, tee boxes and a complete rerouting of the course. One of the most peculiar aspects of the “old” Derrick was that there were no fairway bunkers. Now there are 75 bunkers.
