Kuala Kubu Bharu, Malaysia
February 9th, 2007 by Olaf Bound.sAs promised, I’m posting today photos taken on the Kuala Kubu Bharu golf course that I believe will give you the ultimate cheapest golfing experience. This course layout is a very challenging golf course.
We start off with the first hole, which is directly next to the ninth hole. This par 4 is a 400 yard hole with a trees lining up if your tee shot reaches the left side. On the right awaiting beautiful slices is a water hazard. The green is slightly elevated with the size not dissimilar to a common bus stand.
The 10th Hole is a beautiful 424 yard pard 4, with hazards waiting all-round. A daunting index 2 hole requires you to have a drive of at least 240 yards carry (downhill) to have any chance to attacking the green. Just about 100 yards from the green is a small little drainage (about 40 yards wide), which collected balls as an ambition.
But my favorite signature hole is this beautiful 13th hole. Only 343 yards, it is an index 6. I’ve taken a shot at the description of the hole. Don’t be fooled by the sign indicating the water hazard coz the green is directly across the water hazard and is located at least a floor higher. A daunting task for high handicappers like old olaf here.
Hey! If you feel like it why not take a small step for golf-kind. However, be warned and prepared for “old olaf” lost a total of 15 balls.
You forgot to mention the hole where the green is located on the level two of a three-level “hill resort”!

Olaf, March 21st, 2007 at 3:26 pmKKB Golf Course seems to be challenging and attractive to the pros. Is it possible that the club starts a golf school?
Umi, July 5th, 2007 at 11:09 pmUmi-this is indeed a very challenging course. As for starting a golf school there is up to the management of the Resort. But what a course!
Golfnick, July 6th, 2007 at 4:01 pmGolfnick, tell me more what would you expect of a golf course. From your experience on which course that you truly enjoyed your golf game most & why?
Umi, July 7th, 2007 at 5:19 pmUmi-to answer your question in the comments area would be a bit too lengthy. But you can go to Ratings of a Golf Course post. However, there are plenty of other great courses I have not mentioned here. Good Golfing!
Golfnick, July 10th, 2007 at 5:02 pmGreat post, just like always. When I’m entering your blog I’m always sure I won’t regret it. Continue writing.
