PSC Golf from Siam Country Resort

Tuesday, August 4, Parichat – Stableford

We booked Parichat for our Tuesday game, because we were curious how the new course in our region would be.  We had already heard some rumours about water.  What to say about this course?  The fairways and the greens are ok, but it was a struggle to reach the greens.  We played from the blue tees and that meant for our group almost a challenge on every tee shot. You have to carry at least 200 yards and straight, otherwise you will lose your ball.  We think there are too many obstacles built into the course.  Furthermore, there is a lot of work still to do in the environment before the course is really finished.  You better call it ‘course under construction’.

The scores were very poor on the day.  The winner was Tony Wakeling (h/cap 17) with 26 stableford points and in second was Paddy Devereux (22) with 25 points.

The near pins went to Tony Wakeling and Willem Lasonder.

On Thursday we went with a small group to Burapha and played no competition.  We had a nice day on a good maintained course.  Always a pleasure to play there.

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 meters, with the venue on the left another 200 meters 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 2535440 (Willem Lasonder) for scheduling or enquiries.
