The Gog Magog Golf Club is ranked as the best 36 hole facility in East Anglia, the Old course provides a rewarding challenge for better players with a CSS of 71, one more than par. The fast running greens and risk reward holes offer many birdie opportunities demonstrated admirably by David Hague in 2017 with two final rounds of 62 and 63 without a or a bogey or a five on the card. Have a look at the course here.
Players in the Lagonda trophy have full use of the club facilities including one of the largest practice facilities in the UK where players can hit every club in their bag with their own practice balls or range balls if they do not want to collect them up. Two putting greens and a short game area provide a great facility for players to polish their game.
The Lagonda is a great opportunity to join a winners list that includes many Ryder Cup players, tour winners and two world number ones (past winners)
