1st-429m Par 5 slight dogleg left from an elevated synthetic grass tee mat. The 329m-10th Par 4 is further up
2nd/11th-362m
3rd/12th-345m
4th/13th-164m
5th/14th-328m
6th/15th-438m short Par 5
7th/16th-130m
8th/17th-399m
9th-110m Par 3 also plays with a back tee 18th-383m

There is a local rule which sums up the condition of this barren layout: "on the fairway of the hole in play a ball may be lifted and placed on a preferred lie within one club length and not nearer to the hole."

Yes, the fairway! And yes, you need much more than 1 club length for any relief…I gave my clubs relief…to the boot of my vehicle in the car park.

Any course with this rule should be closed permanently. Why would anyone bother to play is beyond me. Fees are $5

Morgan is a small village of around 400 people near the big bend on the Murray about 40km north-west of Waikerie or 30 minutes east of Eudunda. Good sights around the village and river, but play your golf at Waikerie.

Morgan is a dry, barren course with small, poor scrpaes and no noticeable difference between the fairway and the rough. I guess except that there are a few trees in the rough. It is a nine hole course that may actually test some golfers who are used to hitting off grass.
The best two holes on the course are the par 3 4th which is medium distance at around 160 metres, but which doesn’t really have a fairway, just a tee, a green and a heap of trees in between. The other good hole is the par 5 6th which is short and dog legs to the right, helping those that fade the ball and is very reachable in two.
Overall probably the lowest quality course we have played, and you couldn’t honestly advise anyone to have a hit here.
I’d rate this as half a star but iseekgolf wont allow it.
