Northenden Golf Club in July 2005 voted by a large majority to rebuild all 18 greens to the United States Golf Association (USGA) specification. The first Competition using the New Greens was in June 2006 with 140 very excited Players taking part.Many greens are larger than previously, giving more options for pin placement. New bunkers, particularly on the shorter par fours, means more care will be required with shot and club selection.Finally, and most importantly, the wonderful new drainage system beneath the greens and fairways means that we will be the only local club able to play on proper greens, in good condition, throughout the year.When I played here it was after the greens had been altered and yes they were fantastic well lets put it this way I believe Nick Faldo,Sandy Lyle & Greg Norman are just a few of the names who have played here in the Pro-am so that says it all but no truthfully from an amateurs point of view this course is fantastic and one I intend going back to play again asap.
