PSC golf from Siam Country Resort

Wednesday, May 14, Treasure Hill – Stableford

Wednesday was our first game of the week due to Tuesday being a holiday in LOS.  We chose to go to Treasure Hill following the 5* reviews after our last visit a few weeks ago.

The course, though still in good condition and a pleasure to play, was not in the superb condition of last time.  Greens were a little on the slow side and were not running as true as previous, but the course still provided plenty of challenges at around 6700 yards from the whites.

Wednesday’s top two: Willem Lasonder (right) and Jeff Wylie.Wednesday’s top two: Willem Lasonder (right) and Jeff Wylie.

A count back was required to separate our 2 most in-form golfers, namely Willem Lasonder (H/cap 16) & Jeff Wylie (6), Willem getting the nod on this occasion 17/15 after both had signed for 33 points.

Near pins were spread around between Trevor, Jeff & Martin.

Thursday, May 15, Crystal Bay – Stableford

We saddled up again on our usual Thursday, with Crystal Bay the chosen venue, and more specifically the A & C combination at around 6450 yards from the whites.

Jeff Wylie (6) kept his run of form going with a solid 40 points, while Martin Hayes (15) with a great back 9 of 23 points signed for a total of 38 points.

The course was in good order tee to green, however the greens were a little on the inconsistent side, suffering in comparison to days past.

Near pins went to Jeff, Martin & Willem.

Note:  Siam Country Resort, Restaurant & Bar is located just off Siam Country Club Rd, after going under the arch past the 7/11, turn right after 50 metres, with the venue on the left another 200 metres along.  Golf from here is generally played on Tuesday & Thursday, with the Resort hosting prompt presentations on both days.

As a PSC affiliated venue we welcome ALL golfers, including ladies & seniors (>60s) who have opted for the “Silver” tee option.  Call 089 094 1841 for scheduling or enquiries.  Hope to see you there, cheers & good golfing!
