The Road to Margate - Dorridge

In a pre-british Open warm-up a second visit was made to the 12-hole Minigolf Course at Dorridge.


With the weather a lot better (and drier) than the previous visit my scores improved with rounds of 28 (+4), 26 (+2) & 26 (+2).


All good practice ahead of the BMGA British Open in Margate.
