Morning Lads,

Next years golf trip to China is on, destination is Hainan Island. We have done Mission Hills Shenzen last year, and know it's best just to play the gems and not the chaff at Mission Hills, so we are looking to branch out to other courses.

We are playing 8 days over there, and have locked in Lava Fields, and Blackstone at Mission Hills. Also locked in is Shenzhou Dunes East and West courses.

Love to play Shanqin Bay, but we have no chance of getting on.

Has anyone been there, and recommend another 4 courses we should attend, preferably on the north/east of the island.

Cheers,
ben

Which are the gems of Mission Hills, and which are the chaffs?

Would be good to know if I ever get over there.
