Described as “Nothing else like it in Australia”
A newly redeveloped golfing gem within the Geelong and Bellarine Peninsula region. Lonsdale Links in Point Lonsdale is a distinctive links experience served up with welcoming, coastal hospitality.
Strategically designed to reveal more of itself each time you play, it draws inspiration from trailblazer, Charles Blair Macdonald, and his colleagues Seth Raynor and Charles Banks. Ogilvy Cocking Mead designed the course as a deliberate throwback to an earlier age with template holes throughout to make it a nostalgically challenging yet fun course, unique to Australia.
Many say a links course is a true test of any golfer's ability. Even if a player knows the course well, it is notoriously unpredictable, so factors such as creativity, risk, and luck all come into play.
So asked our own PGA professional @andriusbelkusgolf to share his tips to tackle our links course on your next visit ⬇️
🏌️ Play it low
🏌️ Putt from off the green or chip and run for better control
🏌️ Check your ball. Some perform better in the wind so head to your local shop and find the best option
🏌️ When it’s breezy, swing it easy

We may have to battle the wind 💨a bit more than other Clubs, but being a links course we have great all year round conditions thanks to our sand base 👌

Some insights on “Drop Off” (aka the 8th) 👇
⛳ The fairway at the 8th tips off severely from left to right and down towards a natural pond hence the name “drop off”
⛳ The smallish green is often best suited to a running approach and care is needed to keep the ball under the hole
⛳ Anything above the pin makes for a difficult two putt
Does anyone want to share their strategy for taking on Drop Off?
