UNIPERTAMA Golf Club

Located just south of KL, its been a while since I last played there because it was not that popular amongst golfers. When golfing buddies Mas Ali, Syed Muzaffar and Zainal Abidin called me for a foursome last Tuesday, 2 October 2018, I just wanted to visit the place. Not surprising there are many golfers arriving at the club at 0800 hours, mostly retirees and pensioners.


Mas Ali took care of the registration, RM60 for Senior golfers and RM70 for visitors including buggy. There are some female caddies fro Indonesia, mostly from Medan although our caddy was from Surabaya. Caddy fee is another RM60 excluding tips.


We played the Par 5 Hole 1 from the Blue Tee and managed 4 on but 3 putted for 7. I am not very fond of elevated green. First 9 score was humble with 1 par (5), 2 bogeys and 6 doubles at the so called Orchard 9.


The 2nd nine is called Forest 9 and was more challenging with so many OBs and dogleg fairways. Some of the second shot were blind from the fairways for new visitors. Managed 48 for this nine with 2 pars (3,5) 2 bogeys and 5 doubles. Most of the par 3s were long to as much as 190 meter and we cant get to the green with drivers, a clear signal that next time we must play from White tee box.


The caddy was good and polite and did her line reading candidly but we a just lousy golfers.


We had lunch at the club and they served good selection of tasty menus and overall damage for the day was RM80 including lunch.  For that much what is there to complain ?
