Comment
This is a busy Club. Catering for golfing tourists and locals. Very well organized.
The course is in good condition and doesn’t seem to be affected by the constant traffic.
All the NSWVGA players I spoke with were very impressed with the three days and were happy to return and recommend Howlong.
Only one grade for males and females because of the low numbers
