Bangi Golf Resort

Bangi Golf is very fresh in my mind. I played here twice this week and i can say , this course is short and challenging. Longest Par 4 are measuring at 349M and the longest Par 5 are 480M. This means , a good drive and a good second shot give you a 2 on the green for every of this.

Bangi has 5 tee box color. Golf , Black , Blue , White and Red. It's a 27 hole golf course which is the Kajang Nine , Putrajaya Nine and Bangi Nine. I played all this 3 this week.

Kajang and Putrajaya would be recommend to play in as it's short , a lot of shade and the beauty of it.

Bangi Nine is a new one and i tell you , you will die of heat in here if the weather is hot. There are trees everywhere , but those tree is even shorter than you. They just planted it and you got no place to hide while waiting for your friend to tee off or sink his putt. Make sure you put enough of sun block lotion onto you before playing this Bangi Nine. And , i had never seen so many bunker in a nine. Not just many , it's big and long. In certain holes , fairway bunker are as long as the fairway. And greenside bunker are bigger than the green. There's one hole where i dont really remember which one , had 3 bunkers which resemble the St Andrew style bunker. First of all i have no idea what that thing is until i go near it. The good thing about this Bangi Nine is there arent much water hazard and you can go 1 on the green in the last hole measuring 299M downhill.

1) Price
Walk in pays RM89 which include a meal voucher worth RM15 which means you dont have to pay for lunch. Prices of the food here is slighty cheap and worth.

2) Fairway
Fairway are well maintained and it's bermuda grass. The sad thing is the drainage of this course is poor. Fairway would be muddy and soggy after rain.

3) Green
Green are pretty bad in Kajang and Putrajaya Nine. It's hard and your ball wont hold much. Part of the green are under maintainance and if your ball landed in certain area , you will face a very bad lie. Bangi Nine had better green which is soft enough to get some spin on it and it's slightly fast. Long putting might be fruasting because green in Bangi Golf is really huge. Pin placement doesnt change at all in 3 weeks already. I knew this because 2 weeks ago my friend played and he say it's the same. And today when i play again , it's still the same.

4) Clubhouse
Clubhouse looks like a pathway with tables and chair beside it. Something like roadside stall. I mean the area where we drink and eat. Registration counter is pretty small and receptionist can be very busy in weekends. Very Busy. It's not a high class one like Staffield. The buggy station , cafeteria , bag drop , changing room , pro shop and registration counter are all in the same place. It makes the clubhouse looks very pack.

5) Others
WIth a price of RM89 , it's a worth playing course. I rather choose here than Danau RM84 which i will review later. Such cheap golf course is offering bermuda grass and the green are still playable although it's not in tip top condition. And you can have fun with some course management thing because this course will make you think to choose which club to tee off and the landing area. For me , i keep my driver most of my time even for a Par5 hole and i use my 5 wood the most.

It's a must try course because it's hardly to find such short course and a challenging one. Playing here is the time for you to use your mind and do some course management. I can say , not much course where you can tee off with a 3 iron and it's a good choice. If i tee off with a 3 iron for a Par4 and a 5 wood for a Par5 let's say in Seri Selangor , flight mate would probably say i'm showing off.
