Best Pine Tree Golf Courses
GFI What type of golf course do you love to play?
I am a big fan of heather courses, links courses and in general pine tree lined golf courses. Most often than not, pine tree lined golf courses can be found on 'heather' based courses or courses found near to the coast.
This month we take a quick look and highlight a few golf course gems which have pine trees.
At this point in time there is no filter for course trees on the top 100 golf website! Perhaps not a major requirement for most golfers, but the fact is, the fauna and tree type can make a big difference to the look and feel of a golf course.
Pine Ridge Golf Club
Located in Camberley Surrey, a highly competitive county of quality golf courses, Frimley Pines can be found. 6428 yards in length. The homepage states the course is accessible and recently voted within the UK's top 10 public courses to play.
