Pac Dunes. Least amount of fun I have had on a golf course as far as I can remember.

Pac Dunes near Newcastle? Tough but it’s not that bad, doesn’t compare overly well to Newcastle though!

In saying that though I will wait till the course has been completed before I pass any more armchair judgement
People entering and exiting from the high side would be more of a concern. I don't think you're allowed to play in work boots there any more which will help. seriously there is a member who plays comps at Virginia in steel capped work boots.

The Cut is possibly the worst GCA effort on great land in Australia! The houses on the front nine are terrible. There are 3 or 4 good holes but at least double that many shockers! 17 is possibly the worst hole in Australia!

Two years back I had a round with some locals at Hartfield in W.A
When I discussed The Cut they advised the course is locally renowned for holding a nickname that contains one extra letter in its original name

Ahh The Cut. Tbf to Wilcher there were some gnarly EPA restrictions on the amount that could be cleared. Probably should not have gone ahead.9, 10, 11, 15, 17 and 18 are truly shithouse.

Maybe they should host a Presidents Cup. A 'real' test of golf ala Whistling Straits

No one hits it far enough right on 18 even after 2 or 3 plays! Truely weird!

I enjoyed it. Bunkers are pretty penal but at least the sand is consistent
Only 4 full holes in play and one green being played from makeshift tees for the moment.
