You’re standing on the first tee. The sun is<br />
shining, the ball’s sitting up nicely. One more<br />
wiggle of the hips and you’re ready to go.<br />
But how confident are you feeling?<br />
For the slightly apprehensive, Chirk Golf<br />
Club’s “Captain David’s Course” can play as<br />
short as 5,525 yards. But if the force is with<br />
you, the so-called “Tiger Tees” can extend<br />
this to a whopping 7,045 yards.<br />
This 200-acre course, bounded by the<br />
Llangollen Canal and with superb views of<br />
Chirk Castle, offers the typical <strong>Wrexham</strong><br />
golfing experience.<br />
A true test. A friendly welcome. Competitive<br />
green fees. And something just that little bit<br />
different. Whether you’re after an 18-hole<br />
championship challenge like <strong>Wrexham</strong> Golf<br />
Club. Or a scenic nine-hole course such as<br />
Darland Golf Centre at Rossett.<br />
Darland is short but sweet with USGA-standard<br />
tees and greens. And no soft touch. Don’t say<br />
we didn’t warn you about the signature ninth<br />
hole. A left-hand dog-leg to a green defended<br />
by trees on one side and a lake on the other.<br />
And if you’re not quite hitting it straight, a<br />
fancy bit of kit at Clays Golf Centre in<br />
<strong>Wrexham</strong> might help. Pros at the Mizuno<br />
National Fitting Centre there use a £20,000<br />
radar system to analyse your swing.<br />
