KOTA SERIEMAS GOLF AND COUNTRY CLUB

KSGCC is located near Kg. Salak, Nilai, Negri Sembilan, Malaysia. Established in 2016 comprised 18 holes of undulating fairways and numerous bunkers. There are 4 tees to choose from black, blue, white and red to suit level of  skill and golf handicap. Me and my buddies  played from the white tee as this is our  first visit here. 

Going to KSGCC may be troublesome for outstation golfers but it is located near KLIA and the FI circuits. Along the Nilai-KLIA expressway just turn into Bandar Baru Salak Tinggi and Kg Salak. After the Masjid Kg Salak, at the traffic light turn left and after a few KM at the traffic light just turn right and follow the signboard. At the roundabout you will see the entrance to KSGCC.


The Clubhouse is brand new and served buffet breakfast and registration is at the golf shop. We registered as Senior golfers (age 55+) and paid RM100.30 and extra RM25 per golfer to enable buggy to roam the fairways. 

 The first hole is a Par 5 measuring 467M from the Blue Tee, reachable in 3 shots for the average golfer.
The 18th hole is a Par 4, downhill with water hazard waiting for wayward tee shot. 




For those who have not played this course, it is worth a try..I would want to play this course again .

GRI GARHANA BANDUNG, NOVEMBER 2016

On the second day we went to Gri Garhana, about 1 hour trip from the city centre. The course is situated near the medical faculty of the Penjajaran University. I once asked my son to study medicines  here but he didn't want otherwise I could have visited Bandung a few times a year. The club also have a lodging facilities if golfers want to stay and play at the club. 



The course itself was very good and very challenging for short and medium hitters. We only have 5  people to play golf so we asked to play jumbo but the General Manager who once worked at Glenmarie GC could not let us do it because of club policy. So we play 5 when the holes are away from clubhouse and we played three and two when near the club. 




The course played over 6,714 yards from the blue tee which is pretty long for me. Weekday rate about Rph 955,000 morning and Rph 845,000 afternoon. Located 1,000 meters aboe sea level within sight of Gunung Manglayang. There is   45 room resort available if you dont like the 1 hour return trip toBandung.Avoid coming during October to December because the fairways are more suitable for rice  ulttivation, very very wet.
