Decided to take a last minute weekend getaway to this beautiful and amazing city.
Squeezed in a game of golf at Long Thanh on Saturday morning.

The condition is amazing, and reminded me of Tanah Merah Gardens Course, well, maybe a little better than TMGC.

It was a walking course, with well manicured greens and tee boxes.
Fairways and bunkers were in immaculate condition.

I'll let the pictures describe how beautiful this golf course is. It was truly breathtaking.

Early morning 6.15am arrived at the golf club. Temperature about 24-25 deg, and remained like that the whole morning. The transport picked us up from hotel at 5.00am. Yes, 5.00am!

Par 5. Hole #2. No GIR. Bogey. Sad

OK Lah, the rest no need description. Anyway, everything went downhill from there. Score-wise, that is.

Jon, my pleasure.

Paid USD85 for Saturday morning. Course was pretty busy, but because it's walking, flights were very evenly spaced out, and no unhealthy waiting on each hole. Place is superbly run. Well worth every cent. Wished I played better though...

But on hindsight, winds were blowing about 2-3 clubs difference... So yeah, it was tough...

IF you go for the tiger line in Hole 1, it might have just been a birdie or even GUR!!!!!!

Hope the course did not dissapoint you.....
