Bukit
Banang Golf Course, situated less than 1.5 hours from
Singapore and 2.5 hours from Kuala Lumpur, has been
rated among the top ten golf courses in Johor by the
Asian Golf Review.
It
is an international championship 18 hole par 72 course
offering challenging golf experiences to golfers of all
levels of skill. The fairways are turfed with Bermuda
Greenless Park and the greens with Bermuda Tifdwarf to
ensure a true putting surface
The
first nine, called the Valley Nine plays into the hilly
undulating terrains of Bukit Banang with picturesque
winding fairways and sloping greens. Possibly the most
difficult hole of the course, Hole 2 (Par 5) is unique
with a large pond dissecting the fairway into two. A
good tee shot and a heroic second shot will reward you
with a par. Hole 8 - par 215 meters. is the longest Par
3 at Bukit Banang. The slopping green is well guarded by
two strategically placed bunkers. A par on this hole is
a great achievement.
The returning Lake Nine is
comparatively tougher than the first nine due !O the
numerous lakes and screams that cut across the fairways.
Accuracy and good course management is the solution to
the more demanding Lake Nine
Hole 13 is an interesting Par 3
but not for the faint hearted. With the big lake
guarding the green, players must position the ball
perfectly or pay the penalty. Hole 18 (Par 4), the
Signature Hole of the course is both scenic and
challenging from tee to the double-tiered green.
Achieving a par on this hole is truly a rewarding
experience.
