Barossa Valley Golf Club

The Barossa Valley Golf Club is situated in Nuriootpa in the Barossa Valley just north of Adelaide.





The road trip continued on from the Adelaide Hills and we stayed in Nuriootpa for a couple of days whilst exploring the Barossa Valley.



Par 4 1st hole

The weather was warm in the lead up to new year and it was 36C when I ventured out, so a electric cart and lots of drinks was necessary.  I had the course to myself, so got around in less than 2 hours.




Par 3 3rd hole

The hot weather meant the fairways were quite dry but the tees and greens were in good condition, the greens in particular considering the dry spell were soft and so the ball stopped well.



Par 4 4th hole

A couple of kangaroos spotted in the shade on the way around.




Managed to play slightly above handicap which in the conditions I was happy with.



Par 3 15th hole

Tee shot on 15th

Looking forward to a full year of golf in 2016.



Long par 3 17th hole
A feature was the long par 3 holes, notably the 17th at 210 metres from the back.
