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
