My OCD wouldn't have been able to handle only playing the front nine of Wolston Park, so the full 18 is done now.
The main changes that I noticed were that they had a cart shed now (for private carts, I assume), and they had added some extra tees (Gold) in for Honour Board events. For those that know the course, there is a tee area back and left of the usual spot on the 1st; the 6th could be played from the 9th tee, and the 9th gold tee was on the other side of the 4th fairway. Today, we only played off the longer tees on the first.

I don't think I will be returning to Karana Downs in a hurry. I remembered it as being a better and a bit of a fun course, but the condition isn't great, not that many courses are when it is dry, but the greens were average also. There are several holes where local knowledge is needed just to play some holes too, which was a bit annoying.
The 14th is currently out of play, so to have an 18th hole, they moved the first tee to a temp area, making it a 200m dogleg par 4 (you can go for the green over the trees). They created a temp par 3 that runs from beside the 18th fairway to a dustbowl temp green on the hill near the usual 1st tee. This temp green is terrible, and the local we played with said there that there is a maximum two putts rule if you are on the green surface, that is, if you land on the green, you have a guaranteed par; I didn't see it on the local rules board though. The green turned my birdie chance from just off the edge of the green (not in 2 putt max range) into a bogey. The other change is that the 13th tee got moved forward due to someone hurting themselves on the path that goes up to the old tee, so now it is a 220m dogleg par 4, and once again you can try to go over the trees.

Outstanding.
Greens were coming back from reno, but were true. Just a little sandy and a touch slow.
Fairways were perfect. I was pleasantly surprised.

I like returning to McLeod. Have I mentioned that my name is on the honour board? I do like to point it out when I'm in the clubhouse.
After apparently nearly closing down 18 months ago, the course has bounced back well. The greens and fairways are in good condition, and I really liked the bunkers too. The delayed open comp McLeod Cup is on next week, so they probably have the course looking schmick for that.

Moonlighting as the Ladies president are you?
Side Note - How is Oxley, Gailes and Jindalee looking? Wouldn't mind taking a look out that way (i'm Ipswich way) as i just started back after a four or 5 years out. I've joined Sandy Gallop as a member for now. Keen to see a few of the courses I played as a junior.

What BITS said. Gailes has been in great condition every time I've played it this year. The third is out of play now, while they re-do the green, so the par 5 ninth, is split into 9A and 9B for a par 3 and 4. I haven't played there since this has been done.
