    Scottt and Matt Mollica's latest podcast talking to Mat Goggin about 7 Mile. Think they are doing a terrific job for a couple of blokes who have not much experience with the medium, what does come through is their genuine excitement about the topic.

    I already like Hobart but when this and North Arm get going, it will be the destination.

    Yep Pete, North Arm Cove near Hawks Nest is a fair hike. Suspect I won't make it as an influencer.

    Arm End have also had a change in Architects, with OCM taking over from Crafter Mogford.

    I'm still not convinced it will go ahead, a lot more hurdles than 7 mile.

    Only found out recently that the Casino course in Launy is undergoing a re-design by Beau Welling, a architect partner of Tiger Woods. Don't think they are far down the track, but interesting selection.

    Is there another course being built near the 7 mile beach course at 5 mile beach? Or did I not read the article correctly?

    They've got the first government approval for it, but the main approvals are still to come. Might be a year or 2 before it starts.

    Unfortunate that they've had some decent delays (and vandalism).

    They're membership proposal is interesting, limited numbers and decently higher price than Tas or RH.


    I'm really hoping the super large putting and short game area comes to fruition.

    Goggin was talking about the second course on the northern side, green fees under $200Aud, and the place as a destination. Add in rounds at RH, Tasmania, Llanherne and you have a cracking week lined up

    Yeah 5 mile will get up, I think with the uncertainty with Arm End they'll get the push for the other course to make the trip more worthwhile.

    Listening to AGP podcast they mentioned that Hobart having world class course/s could really hurt King Island, as the temptation for return travel will generally go to easier to access locations rather than off the beaten track places like KI.


    Speaking of Tasmania GC, we've just got a new super who had been working on Seven Mile. Already some good changes with tree and understory clearing opening it up, still no work when road works will take place though.

    Can’t wait. Just a shame the opening has been pushed back to Nov next year.
    Cinderella story, out of nowhere, former greenskeeper, now about to become a Masters champion..... It looks like a mirac.. It's in the hole! It's in the hole!

    What's the roadworks? Something that will affect the course?

    That's where I played most of my early golf but haven't played it since the early 90's.
