Cost me a prize absolutely knackered in the heat for the last few holes lost concentration and two three putts later was one off the prizes☹️ Royal Muss always ends up with queues at par 3 6th, then par5 9th?? Players wait on 2nd shot, then miss the green by miles. Great course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved it. Played the rosemount course off the whites. Hole of the day was the 470 yard par 4 16th. My second shot must have had a look at the hole. Ended up a foot past it for an easy tap in birdie. 11.15. I can only assume the delays were for folk looking in that rough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you ended up in the longer stuff there was no chance of finding a ball. I went in the water on 4 catching it fat, lost a ball on 5, then nr'd on the 6th after ending up in the rough down the right and not being able to find it when i thought i was short of it. Ended up playing quite well after that and got a 2 for the 2s sweep. I would've needed to play under par from the 7th to play to my handicap even if i went back to the tee on 6 so was glad i didn't bother.

Nice enough track but it's tough to enjoy it too much when you're looking in knee height rough with a slight errant tee shot. The back 9 seemed to have a lot less of it, and play was certainly quicker than the front 9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seen yer score, pretty deflating after your 3rd, 4th and 5th hole as you said! Yeah on the third i pulled my second shot after an alright drive so that was lost then took me a few holes to start swinging normally again! I thought the greens were quite good but a few they put the hole where there was a bit moss and bumps. 6 other people joining me NR'ing on 6 makes me feel a bit better. Back 9 felt a lot better and easier, apart from nearly ending up on the 14th fairway from the 13th tee ending up right behind the smallest trees on the course. It's a good open for £15. Try to play it most years when i can. I've played 5 different courses the last month and the rough everywhere is getting bad. I must've lost more balls in the last month than in the 11 months before it and my handicap is slowly going up the way because of it.
