The course has a good driving range with chipping and putting greens.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">This is very much a true golfers course which is a genuine par 72 championship layout of 6,059 metres (6,6664 yards) from the yellow tees, which tests every aspect of your game but notably the accuracy of driving and distance control. The par 3 holes are all approaching 200 yards in length and will need either a long iron or recovery club to find the putting surface. For the longer hitters the par 5 holes are all approx 500 yards in length and reachable with a few good hits from the \u2018screws\u2019 with a long carry over water which awaits any errant shot that you may hit. If you are having a good day and the driver is \u2018behaving itself\u2019 then with a few strong tee shots there are a few birdie opportunities on a number of par 4 holes of less than 400 yards BUT a few stray drives will see your score rocket and it could also be costly in lost golf balls. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Golf Course Review \u2013 Condado de Alhama This is the \u2018signature\u2019 course of the &#8216;golf trail&#8217; designed by Jack Nicklaus himself and each hole is based on some of the<a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.costa-blanca-greenfees.com\/golf-blog\/golf-course-review-condado-de-alhama\/\">&#8230;..Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"Layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.costa-blanca-greenfees.com\/golf-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/608"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.costa-blanca-greenfees.com\/golf-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.costa-blanca-greenfees.com\/golf-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.costa-blanca-greenfees.com\/golf-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.costa-blanca-greenfees.com\/golf-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=608"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.costa-blanca-greenfees.com\/golf-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/608\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":609,"href":"https:\/\/www.costa-blanca-greenfees.com\/golf-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/608\/revisions\/609"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.costa-blanca-greenfees.com\/golf-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=608"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.costa-blanca-greenfees.com\/golf-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=608"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.costa-blanca-greenfees.com\/golf-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=608"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
