duncaw Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Anybody know of any par 3 / pitch 'n' putt golf courses in the Bangkok area? There used to be one at Bangphli, near Suvarnabhumi airport - does anybody know if it's still open? I've not been there for at least a couple of years - prior to the new airport opening. Never was exactly the best of facilities but a good cheap option for beginners who are bored of the driving range but not quite ready for the full experience (there's nothing quite so sole destroying for a beginner than taking 10 or 12 shots to reach the green on a par 5 and with the added pressure of a busy course with other groups up your a$%e) Failing that anybody know of any other similar facilities within an hour or so of central Bangkok?

p_brownstone Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 There's a Par 3 Course on Srinakarin Road - just past Seacon Square. I've never played there - just see the sign every time I drive past Seacon. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Thanks. Heard about this one but also never been there. However a friend did go there and said the holes were only 40 - 50 yards. The one at Bangphli used to average 70 - 120 yards which is more what I'd be looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Lawrence Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 There are two that I know of and have played. North Park - near the old airport on the left hand side as you leave Bangkok - basic and not too difficult Bangkok Golf Club - more challenging and much more interesting, excellent par 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khutan Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Bang Phli at about KM 13 is good, and is not as easy as it looks. I have a friend who likes Bangkok Golf, as it has some Signature holes for the Par 3 course. I am yet to play at BKK golf, but looking forward to it.

duncaw Posted November 13, 2008 Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 Update: Bangplee par 3 course is still open and very good value for money. Weekend rates (9 holes) Green fee - 200 baht Caddy fee - 80 baht Marginally cheaper if you play 18 holes and also cheaper during the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick good find. i just moved to this area of town and was hoping to find a course that i could spend an afternoon at. i don't have any golf partners so if anyone is up for a round then PM me. p.s. I'm not very good but I love the game. it is always a humbling experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
