The Pacific Golf Club was formed in 1937 at Kessels Road, Mt Gravatt, before relocating to its…read morecurrent site on Pine Mountain Road, Carindale, in 1964. The course has a colourful history and an excellent reputation, with an 18 hole championship course and 9 hole par 3 course. There's an active junior golfing program and Pacific has been the venue for the Gary Player Junior Classic for the last 30 years. Not a golfer myself, I have accompanied friends who've played and can say the clubhouse is very nice on a hot day.

Putt Putt seems to be an activity that has followed me my entire life. I remember vividly playing…read more weekly rounds of ultra competitive Putt Putt with my family on the Gold Coast as a kid. Since moving the Brisbane Putt Putt has since fallen off my radar... until now! A friend of mine recommended we go to Victoria Park (up near Kelvin Grove) and play some night Putt Putt for a bit of fun. Intrigued by the proposal I agreed and we made our way there around 7 o'clock that night. Initially I was a bit nervous that the repressed, competitive, Putt Putt demon within would bare all seven of its malevolent heads, however these concerns were soon alleviated due to the low admission fees and the presence of alcohol, which can be purchased and consumed legally on the course. Also, I was honestly relieved to notice that the majority of the people there were younger adults doing something a bit different with their Friday night. There were indeed kids and families around but they became adorable accessories to the evening, as opposed to tiresome obstacles. The course itself was in fact a lot of fun. Though there are no gimmicky windmills or miniature rollercoaster-things, the course still proved to be very entertaining. Each hole has three different levels of difficulty; so all players can still have a good time. Being the competitive psychopath that I am I insisted we play on the top-level of difficulty, which proved to be mostly accomplishable (all those years of competitive Putt Putting paid off). The entire experience was genuinely a lot of fun! I'm even sure I would of managed to have a good time even if I didn't win, which I did. Victoria Park is definitely a great way to break the mold and do something different with your mates around Brisbane. Though inevitably we all end up back in Fortitude Valley, Victoria Park Putt Putt is definitely worth a gander.

Putt Putt is definitely one of those things best done with a small group. Yesterday, I had my first…read moreattempt at putt putt and I have to say it is so much fun! I highly recommend if you are up for something a little different. You can of course, purchase alcohol as you make your way around the course. It has the potential to make the last few holes rather interesting. From selecting a stick that feels 'lucky', to taking that first nerve racking swing and everyone getting a bit competitive towards the end, it is genuinely a fun day. Girls, wear flat shoes and take a shoulder bag that won't get in the way. Holding a putter, a glass of wine, your ball and your bag can be a bit of a challenge otherwise!

So I'm not a golfer. Not at all. But I enjoyed it and this place is good for beginners (and those…read moreintermediate and advance people too, of course). There are nine holes in total but you can play 18, you'll just have to repeat the course. Not that that's a bad thing particularly if you're starting out. Non members are welcome. We had a voucher for a round of golf but since we had an extra person we only paid $14 for them. We also had their fish and chips and it was massive. You get two pieces of fish, some salad and chips. It may not sound like much but it was. If you are a beginner like us, then I strongly recommend getting there early, around 11am. We had the course to ourselves for about 2 hrs before others started coming. So we were able to learn how to hit the ball and such. If it gets a little crowded and you're a slow golfer, it's best to let the faster ones ahead of you just so you don't feel rushed and so that they can go on with their game. There is a dress code, the minimum standard is: shoes, socks, tailored shorts and collared shirt. Be sure to bring a hat and sunscreen too and water to keep you hydrated.

I've played here quite a few times over the years and for anyone looking for a very very casual hit…read morethen this could be the place to try. As golf courses go this place is incredibly small compared to other places around Brisbane. Imagine a really big pitch and putt. Mostly Par 2's and 3's this course is great for beginners or maybe anyone wanting to practice their short game. No need to bring a driver, we comfortably got around the course with just a Pitching Wedge, 7 Iron and a putter. They are a lot more relaxed about their dress code than most places. Just make sure you don't wear board shorts and thongs.

Wow! What a fun spot. They have a nine hole "foot golf" course (A cross between soccer/football and…read moregolf), an inflatable human foosball game where you hold onto ropes and pretend to be foosball figurines. They are even thinking about adding this very cool pitch and put course using cushy stress balls (I hope they do it because that will certainly be a blast). Their conventional put-put course is very basic, but they make it a lot of fun by adding optional rules you can choose to follow at each hole, for a more challenging, social version of mini-golf. For example, one hole comes with a blindfold, and your partner is responsible for aiming you. On another hole, you take your first stroke by dropping your ball in a PVC pipe. On the first hole you have to play with a tiny half a meter long putter and on the last hole you roll a dice, and if you score higher than the dice you have to add that number to your score, and if you score lower you get to subtract that number (this can swing the competition by many strokes making it feel like everyone is still capable of winning until the end). While the greens are very basic they do have a bunch of slopes, so the course isn't as easy as it looks. Now if you are looking for trendsetting put-put with all the fancy mini-architecture, then this probably isn't the place for you, but if you want a fun unconventional set of games this is the place. The couple that runs the place is super nice. This is definitely a huge find for those who live nearby. On Saturdays, a food truck market sets up next door. Hitting up the good food adds to the fun.

The clubhouse is easy on the eye, great for functions and parties and does a good meal on Friday night. I haven't been to a wedding here but judging by the food and flexibility of the staff at a couple of parties I've attended, it would be a good choice of venue. And then there's the sacred grass, highly valued by club members, who yearn to hit their balls around whenever possible, it seems; this, at least, is my partner's view. Not much of a player myself, I know only that it is a very picturesque course, with lovely water features inhabited by fish and turtles and it's great for a pleasant stroll on a sunny day. Guests can get a game for around $40 but this is subject to availability and the course is often busy with members only events.
