The Course
"There are scribes that will tell you about the gannet bird colony and the bird
sanctuary at Muriwai. I simply want to tell you that this course will stir your golfing
aspirations way beyond a calmness of your mental control. When you practice putt you will
marvel at the sheer speed of the sleek greens; you will avoid slipping on the billiard
table smooth fairway grasses, especially when dry and downhill as you will most probably
slide on the seat of your pants until you reach a level. Is this not what all golf courses
strive to be? Immaculate, testing and rewarding to well struck strikes and an exhiliration
and conflict of reward of good shot and penalty that you should suffer when playing an
errant of poorly struck shot on a beautifully designed and testing golf layout. Muriwai is
such a course and I am sure the local members smirk at visitors who play the course, then
comment, "why didn't someone tell me about Muriwai before?" Motorized golf carts
are available
