Fortescue Golf Club

A very uniquely Pilbara course located in Newman, Western Australia, purely run and maintained by its members. Each fairway is lined with white fairway markers allowing you to place your ball a club length no closer to the hole. However go outside the markers and you'll find your lie amongst spinifex grass and iron ore challenging! With four par 5's, nine par 4's and five par 3's each with its own unique way to play. Sand greens are light and fluffy and not oiled like other courses however the locals will tell you sand is easier than turf. Most players will say they have a designated rock club, something to get you back on the green stuff. The diehard members have a bag of what appear to be rock clubs. While on the course you will see the Pilbara wildlife in action. Commonly you see Kangaroos, sand goanna (parnajarlpa), snakes, various birds and even sometimes some dingoes come out for a sticky beak. Once you have finished your round of golf, you can enjoy a beverage and snack at the newly rebuilt club house.
