The Coast
Does playing a golf course with near perfect views make up for average maintenance? It's a question Bogey Golfer ponders while reviewing Sydney’s eastern suburbs cliff hanger, The Coast Golf Club, at Little Bay.

Palm Meadows
Palm Meadows on Queensland's Gold Coast, is still a quality location after years outside of the spotlight. Bogey Golfer returned to play a course, where as a youngster in the 80’s, he watched Greg Norman tame what was once regarded as an intimidating layout.

Massey Park
Massey Park is all about convenience. Its a small public course, located in Concord, in Sydney's Inner West overlooking Exile Bay. The setting is relaxing, basic, and provides the perfect opportunity for a quick round between chores on the weekend, when time can be precious.

Gerringong Golf Course
An open, scenic, reasonably forgiving hit awaits at the Gerringong Golf Club on the NSW South Coast just south of Kiama. Its not pretentious, its picturesque, and its set right on the beach. Its not uncommon for surfers to make their way across a fairway as you line up that next shot.

Jacks Point, Queenstown
Nestled between the 2,500 metre Remarkables Mountain Range on New Zealand's South Island to the east, and the majestic Lake Wakatipu to the west, its hard to picture a more inspiring setting for a quality golf course. This is the landscape that course architect, John Darby, has had to work with, and he has created something special.

Westlawn Golf Course
For the love of the game, Bogey travels back to his roots annually and plays on the course where it all started for him. Daylight savings afforded Bogey the chance to play 9 holes against (the competition was fierce) his best mate straight after school. He now takes his 4 year old nephew onto the course in the hope his passion is ignited.
