Afghanistan
Yesterday without a valid passeport, even if the borders are closed I didn't have to get in a plane to play an Afghanistan links style course.
The place is called Les Vieux Moulins.
How long will it take before it becomes a housing development?
I'm betting 3 years at the most.Last edited by strong49; 07-22-2020 at 04:25 PM.

You bet! VM have never been close to 1/3 of Royal Ottawa of course but I have never seen that course in such bad condition over the years.
Tee offs are sand , not a patch of grass on any fairway. Greens horribles. Directions you get lost on many holes if not familiar. Worth 20$ at the most

This course had a lot of potential when it first opened...it was in pretty good shape....how did this course deteriorate to the level described above? And the next logical question is why do people still go? $20??? It doesn't even sound like it is worth half that.

This is not news as the course has sucked for a couple of years so why are people surprised that it is not improving ?

It deteriorated because they do not have any access to any city water. Every now and then, they ship water in with trucks to fill the ponds. They only water the greens.
