Comments
about the course

"Don't be fooled by Kelso's flat contours - it's a bigger challenge than it looks! To score well you'll need good planning and execution of tee shots."
Best Holes:
"11th 497 yards.
Long hole leading towards the racecourse stand. Main problem is drainage ditch which can catch a poor third."
"15th 172 yards.
Almost certainly the best short hole in the Borders - tricky slopes, bunkers and out of bounds behind the green."

Reviews
The course is flat and very short, several par 4`s are drivable for the big hitters, not too much by the way of hazards, my handicap is 8 but if i was a member of Kelso i would probably be a scratch golfer
