Midlands is really a very good golf course for everyday green fee players. From playing all courses in Ballarat Midlands diffently is the pick of the crop.
The fairways remain green all through summer benifiting from the water from many of the dams and lakes situated through out the course. The greens are always in top condition. The course really benifits from its huge membership pool.
Little about the course-
The front nine is really the big challenge on this course. Enjoyable until you reach the 6th Par 5. Then the next 3 holes Par 4, Par 4, will really test your skills out. Wide fairway shots could see you dropping for 3, these holes are surrounded by water down the right side. So to all you slicers, GOOD LUCK. Straight shots will see you putting together a nice score to take on the back nine.
The back nine I believe is a little easier. Still there is water around but the layout is not nearly as hard as the front nine. Some really good holes I enjoy is the 14th Par 4. A really big dogbend sees you really trying the get the most out of your drive to set up your birdie putt opportunity. Also the 18th sees you making some really tuff decisions coming into your second shot.
You will not be dissapointed playing this course. The members are always very helpful. Say hello the Cookie the Club Pro.
