点评:Yes, the views are stunning.
With generally very wide fairways (though quite hilly so you really need to hit toward the top of the slope), and multiple tees, it is not a super challenging course. That does not mean it is a beginners or an easy course. You really have to pay attention to - and hit to the right places in the fairway. If not, your balls will roll into the rough which in many places means a lost ball. If you cannot generally control your drivers, you will have a long, long day.
But having played courses all over the world, including Whistling Straits, Pebble Beach, St. Andrews and Kilarney , I can say that this ranks in the top ten in terms of scenery, but not in the top 10 in terms of difficulty.
I was very lucky and played with a local person who on every hole, gave two of us the correct line. This is REALLY important if you not only want to score well but have a good time.
Pro shop and other staff are super friendly. Sometimes staff at well known courses are imho, "snooty." It's the opposite here.
However, unless you can get a good deal (and I searched unsuccessfully for a month), the green fee was (and I'm a senior) $500. You can save a bit by staying at the resort (but not that much - between $30-40) And if you live in Hawaii and have a valid driver's license - it's far less expensive.
Also the greens are very large and in extremely good shape. It's definitely worth arriving an hour early and practicing long putts.
I think if you enjoy trying beautiful courses, this is worth it. For me - once.
翻译:是的,景色令人惊叹。
球道通常很宽(虽然很丘陵,所以你真的需要击球到斜坡的顶部),并且有多个发球台,这不是一个超级具有挑战性的球场。这并不意味着它是初学者或简单的课程。您确实必须注意并击球到球道上的正确位置。否则,您的球将滚入长草中,这在许多地方意味着丢球。如果你不能全面控制你的司机,你将会度过漫长的一天。
但玩过世界各地的球场,包括呼啸海峡、圆石滩、圣安德鲁斯和基拉尼,我可以说,这个在风景上排名前十,但在难度上却没有进入前十。
我很幸运,和一个当地人一起打球,他在每个洞都给了我们两个人正确的路线。如果您不仅想取得好成绩,而且想玩得开心,这一点非常重要。
专卖店和其他工作人员都非常友好。有时,知名课程的工作人员恕我直言,“傲慢”。这里恰恰相反。
然而,除非你能买到好价钱(我找了一个月都没有成功),果岭费是(我是大四学生)500 美元。住在度假村可以节省一点(但不多 - 30-40 美元之间),而且如果您住在夏威夷并拥有有效的驾驶执照 - 价格要便宜得多。
此外,果岭面积非常大,形状也非常好。提前一小时到达并练习长推杆绝对值得。
我认为如果你喜欢尝试美丽的课程,这是值得的。对我来说——一次。
