Visitors and those interested in playing or learning golf in Hyderbad.
Following courses are active in Hyderabad ...
HGA (Hyderbad Golf Assn.) ... 2 thumbs up! Good driving range and well maintained course. And a great club-house.
http://www.hyderabadgolfclub.co.in Downside is that it has just 6 greens now and hours of operation are 6 to 11 am, followed by 3 to 6 pm. Green fees and caddy fees will cost you about Rs 300 per round.
Artillery Center Gandipet ... Good course in this part of town. It has 9 greens. Green fees and caddy fees will cost you about Rs 400 per round.
Boulders Emaar's ... World class course!! Bermuda grass and stuff. The best course in Hyderabad and author's favourite. Very very scenic. Designed by a UK guy Peter Harradine.
Black tees are about 7200 yards and blue tees 6400 yards. Excellent club-house run by the Novotel group. Caddy-less course. Green fees and cart will cost about Rs 4000. Didn't I say world standard.
http://www.emaarmgf.com/boulderhillAuthor's favourite is Par 5 "Serpent". If you are a Golf connoisseur visiting Hyderabad, you must budget a day to play at this course ... this is Asia's very own version of desert golf course. You might find it better than TPC Scottsdale AZ. Dont waste your time at other mundane sight-seeing locations suggested by your host.
EME ("Bepta") ... maintained by the army. Green fees and caddy charges about Rs 400.
Bolaram Golf Course ... maintained by the army. Green fees and caddy charges about Rs 400.
Now why did I make this blog.
Because I relocated to this city 4 years back and it took me 2 years to get this basic info !!
And now I can help you with the following:
1) Discount and arrangement logistics at some of these courses.
2) Information about tournaments in Hyderabad.
3) Training at less than $25 an hour.
4) Golf buddies for round of golf in Hyderabad.
5) Golf arrangements in other cities in India.
