Golf Club Steigerwald eV

Getting up early 6 am this morning after a great round yesterday at Golf Club Schloss Mainsondheim eV and an equally great evening at the bar in the Best Western Hotel Polisina, Ochsenfurt. First match in our Gents Club is over and the next match in the challenge “playing 5 courses in 3 days” may begin!

Today we’re playing the Golf Club Steigerwald eV, designed by architect Don Harradine and later today Kitzingen both located in Franconia, a region of northern Bavaria and state of Germany. The tight schedule...

• Golf Club Schloss Mainsondheim eV
• Golf Club Steigerwald eV
• Golf Club Kitzingen eV
• Golf Club Würzburg eV
• Golf Club Main-Spessart eV

First impression always at the office, with the staff and once again we were welcomed by the most friendly young fellow helping us with the buggies, pin positions and birdie book :) The driving range behind the office, didn’t impress much, but we sure all fell in love with the scenery driving up that hill, heading for the first tee. Wow! Please, take the time to enjoy the fantastic view over the city.
