Long queue at Executive Golf Course (Mandai) ... why?

You need score card which has slop and course rating, means your regular 18 hole course.
EC are all not possible if i am correct.

and the course needs to be at least 1500 yards for something for 9 holes (iirc).

Anybody want to play early early game, either tomorrow (18th), Saturday (19th) or Sunday (20th)?

How much is it to play in EGC?

Weekend is 32.10 for 9 holes.

Had 2 games there over the weekend, quite interesting experience. I haven't played here in over 5 years and have never played alone since more than 10 years.

The course itself was acceptable for $30, fairways ok, teebox ok, greens a little slow but manageable. Overall a very easy course.

Played with 2 very different groups on different days. A group of uncles (good golfers) and a group of younger similar age golfers that never took lessons (i asked). There was 1 guy who stood out, he had the newest latest Titleist golf equipment dressed in the latest golf fashion but he topped or sliced every shot in the entire game. It was quite shocking that someone would spend easily over $3K+ in equipment/gear and did not bother to take lessons (and never will, as he said he did not have the time). I did not want to be rude, so I just bit my tongue and talked about other things.

Interesting... I suppose that person does not have an handicap for the looks of things....
EGC allows anyone to play or they do not check for HDP??

But 3k on equipment without knowing how to play... I am sure his friends told him that "As long your equipment is expensive, you are already a good player without playing"
heeeheeeee..

I dunno la, but don't get me wrong, they were still nice people and did not inconvenience anyone and I thoroughly enjoyed the company somewhat

The rule is: If you cannot play, must at least look good lah!

haha, pretty true! Even in driving range, you can see some really dress to kill! Machiam Pro!!! But when they hit their first shot..........OMG!!!! 
However, nothing wrong dressing sharply as long happy can liao.
