Magazine - Hamilton Island Testimonial

By Helen Perrett in Golf on 8th Mar 2010 12:00

I would like to congratulate you both on the creation of the magnificent Dent Island Golf Course in Queensland.

I, and three of my golfing partners, all single figure golfers, had the pleasure of playing the course on Sunday 6th December. Having previously worked as a secretary/manager in both Victoria and Queensland for some twelve years, I am lucky enough to have played most of Australia's great golf courses, and some through Europe and Asia. I have always been a fan of your design work and have played many of your courses simply because they were your designs!

The Dent Is course is the most amazing achievement of course design I and my playing partners have ever experienced. To say that we were awestruck is understating how each of us felt bat the end of our round. Not only are the views magnificent in every sense of the word, the design of each hole is superb from a pure golfing point of view, combining all of the elements of risk/reward golf with a true test of shot making.

We believe that this course will no doubt rank in the highest echelons of courses in Australia.

Once again, congratulations and thank you!
