Essen Golf Club Oefte eV
Reviewed August 16, 2017
I was on 16.8.17, on a Golffrunde in the Essen golf club house Oefte pleased. I played the place two years ago and remembered it well. After 9 holes I ended the round prematurely. The cut on the fairways, the semi-rough and rough were in no well-maintained condition. On several of the greens, putting was affected by a variety of earth piles (probably by earthworms). The joy of the game was very limited! To the excuse, however, it must also be said that the rain of the last days had not done the place well.
For me, however, 70 Euro green fee for this place are a proud price. I will not play this place again.

Claim and reality
Reviewed April 26, 2016
We had the 4/23/2016 booked for Saturday at 09.30 by phone green fees.
Since weekends but can only be played accompanied by a member, (which was not known to us) we only need to inform the Caddy Master by phone, we would like to play.
We were then greeted very end of January and could play yet.
Greenfee 70.00 euros The first 9 holes are quite hilly, some narrow lanes that make a precise games is necessary.
Highlight sure the web 9, towards the castle with restaurant, with a Wassehindernis front of the green.
The second 9 run more precisely, are not particularly spectacular.
Except the 17, par 3 with water hazard.
Striking is not always good signs.
The state of the square was not satisfactory.
Different mown fairways, around the green are first or second cut not recognized or may not exist.
Claim (to the clubs to itself provides) and reality do not match.
Noteworthy: Players with a membership card WITHOUT hologram pay 15.00 Euro surcharge.

Nice
Reviewed April 13, 2015
Scenic nice landscaped space. The signage is patchy because of what sometimes quite long distances zwoschen the fairways is disturbing. The first 8 holes are quite hilly, 11 to 17 are very flat near the Ruhr.

Golf in the nature of the Ruhr
Reviewed October 2, 2013
The 18-hole course near the intersection Breitscheidstraße located on the edge of the Ruhr area, in the countryside. Even if you drive into the car park and the castle and the associated building looks, one suspects the tradition of the club. The typical parkland course is located in a slightly hilly terrain (especially the first 9 holes). The holes are created very varied. So it is equal to the first tracks to play some canyons. Further, there are doglegs, slopes, water hazards and over again, it is the tall trees, and the rough Büche to avoid possible. You better be straight off the tee, so the HC setting of 36 makes perfect sense. The condition was during my visit on 10.2.2013 not 100% perfect. Some reductions were a bit worn and the fairways had some bald spots and were not always evenly mowed. The greens were fresh plus aerifiziert and sanded, which was, however, told me before the round. The game was manageable operation this Wednesday morning and I could start playing immediately without notice. The few members who I met greeted all friendly. The caddy master (has his office in the annexe beside the 9th green) greeted me with a handshake, was very friendly and has instructed me briefly and told me where the first and 10 Reduction can be found. After the 10th Train you go over a bridge over a road that divides the square. Then you play the shallow holes 11-17 more or less along the Ruhr (one does not, however, very much of), before the 18th Discount back over the bridge / road again. A highlight is the 9th Web in which you zuspielt directly to the castle with the clubhouse terrace. Behind the tee and on the green, it is each a hydrogen barrier to play. The green fee is usually 55, - € weekdays certainly appropriate. From 1.10. to 30.4. There are both 10, - € winter discount, no matter what the weather. Because of the mentioned measures on the greens I received another 10, - € discount. Unfortunately, the bad habit "surcharge for guests without hologram" (15, - €) is also applied here. Too bad and not really conducive to the development of golf in Germany. After the round you can with noble ambience of the restaurant, which is housed just as the Secretariat and the changing rooms in the castle, even strengthen. The pro shop is in turn placed directly at the entrance to the club in further separate building. If you ever feel like a round of golf at Parkland "Ruhr" is, here is certainly not wrong.
