The course & your visit
What the Naracoorte hole guide brings into view
Naracoorte Golf Club publishes notes for each hole rather than relying on the scorecard alone. The club’s descriptions point to recurring features such as doglegs, blind tee shots, sloping greens and grass hollows, giving visitors a more concrete picture of the round before they arrive.

The notes show where the next shot can change
The club describes the second as uphill with a slight dogleg left, where tee-shot position affects the approach to a long, narrow green. At the third, its guide calls for a tee shot right of centre and on top of the hill before a downhill approach to a large green. The point is not simply that the holes turn: the club explains how the landing area shapes what comes next.
The eighteenth is the club’s finishing par five, climbing from tee to green through a double dogleg. Its guide describes trees narrowing the drive, a fairway that sweeps right and bunkers around the green. Reading that note gives a visitor a preview of the closing hole’s sequence without promising how it will play on the day.

A course that has kept changing
The club’s history dates its formation to 1927, the opening of a nine-hole course to 1928 and the extension to eighteen holes to 1951. It records a conversion from sand scrapes to greens in 1956, followed by the official opening of the eighteen greens in 1958. That is useful background to the present layout, not a claim about current surfaces or maintenance.
