So if you meant to hit a shank but instead hit it flush dead straight is that a fault in the course's deaign or your fault? I'm confused.
Sounds like Macarthur Grange, but I've played both and don't remember that happening to me at North Lakes. Anyway, wheelchairs in the rough now.

Golf is, in part, a game; but only in part. It is also in part a religion, a fever, a vice, a mirage, a frenzy, a fear, an abscess, a joy, a thrill, a pest, a disease, an uplift, a brooding, a melancholy, a dream of yesterday and a hope for tomorrow. - New York Tribune, 1916.
So you planned to hit a shank, it was a perfectly executed shank, it ended up right where you were aiming to shank it with no other logical shot option other than a shank?
Cool. Sweet analogy mate. I'll give that a solid 5/7.
I remember when trolling was top notch back in the day, not this amateur-hour malarkey. What happened to you, Ozgolf. Did someone hurt you?
Courty and Bushy may have more info, losing Paradise Palms would be v.disappointing.
A new school, retirement village and tourist park for Cairns’ northern beaches are all being considered as part of a multimillion-dollar redevelopment plan for Paradise Palms. Golf will no longer be available from mid-June as resort managing director Darren Halpin prepares to lodge a development application with Cairns Regional Council to transform the Kewarra Beach 18-hole course into a new housing estate. The resort and clubhouse facility will remain open.

Played some junior golf at Paradise Palms in the mid/late 1990s while I was a junior member at Cairns GC. Shame to see the course come to this...a far cry from what it was 20 years ago. My Old Man took me there to play for the first time on my 14th birthday and I was fully geeking out.

What a shame. Of all of the trips I made up there, I never did get a chance to play there. I did drink more than a few beers at the bar though.
It’s about time this goat paddock is turned into a parking lot! Served us better as sugar cane field! Cairns members should be thank full that their green fee income will increase by 0.000002%
Wow, only played there in October in my 2 games for the year.

A new housing estate in FNQ? Clearly it’s not Darren’s money.
Kingston Links closing was a sad day. Even tho at times was a bit steep for what it was ($50 on weekends) it was well maintained for a public course (much higher quality than a Yarra Bend or Freeway). One less for us in Melbourne to rotate around now!A lot of other public courses in Melbourne I wouldn’t have minded if they closed down - Tirhatuan, Waverley, Malvern Valley, Ringwood, even Albert Park which is flat as a Grand Prix track. Hopefully they dont touch Waterford! That’s probably the only decent one left around the eastern suburbs.
Cessnock is in liquidation it looks like , was this the one sms was at ?
I was a member there briefly because it was cheap and they only charged me monthly. They knew I was likely to move interstate sooner rather than later. It was a horrid course. I think Jack Newton only looked out of his glass eye when he designed some holes. Anyway, Daracon saw them coming.
Forum needs more banter.
I went there for years every June long weekend, the course had only just improved last year and the greens were pretty good. But a hell of a lot of courses pretty close together, made little sense to me.
