Nothing new in the last few weeks, played courses that I had played previous, Broome, Katherine, Mystic Sands and Cairns. Broome to me is still an average course, the rough in places can be punishing but the layout dosn't excite too much. Katherine had gone doen hill since last time playing, the greens were terrible, bumpy and inconsistent. Mystic Sands had improved, the greens were the best they have been and there looks like more effort has been put into the course. Cairns was good as usual and a good challenge , greens were a bit ordinary - coming off coring? in recent times.
First time playing the Babinda layout, 9 holes and a few different tee options for the second nine. Played early morning so after a heavy night dew and a few drizzly days it was heavy going. A creek/ditch running through several holes provides interest, espeacially off the 1st/10th tees! Greens were pretty ordinary, worm mounds a plenty and bumpy.
