Mid Herts

GF: £35 STATS: par 69, sss 69, 6,060 yards T: 01582 832242 W: mid-hertsgolfclub.co.uk

Golf has been played at Mid Herts since 1893, with James Braid overseeing the extension to 18 holes in 1923. It is a heathland track whose modest yardage renders it no pushover, with a strong cast of par 3s and several accuracy-demanding holes ensuring more than adequate defences. Mid Herts also boasts four starting points to help keep two-, three- and fourballs apart – and round times down.
