Les inter-saisons sont particulièrement propices aux opérations d’entretien d’importance pour un parcours de golf. Même si j’admire le travail remarquable de la majorité des greenkeepers, force est de constater que ces moments d’entretien ne vont pas toujours de pair avec le plaisir et les sensations que vient rechercher le joueur hédoniste.
Pour exemple, deux expériences vécues :
1. fin mars 2007 : week-end aux Bordes. Greens ET fairways entièrement carrotés et sablés.
Résultat :
- visuellement : un fairway qui ressemble à une plage
- techniquement :
- des approches à 50m difficiles à réaliser : le sandwedge rebondit sur le fairway et la balle fuse à 50m derrière le green (souvent dans les bois). Bonjour les double et triple bogey, adieu la perf
- des balles qui sautent sur le green => le plaisir du beau put s’évanouit.
- psychologiquement : grande déception d’avoir arpenté l’un des plus jolis parcours de France dans un état si peu propice au jeu.
2.plus récemment sur le parcours de SaintMarc (près d’HEC) : greens carrotés après la pluie, ce qui a eu pour conséquence de faire remonter le sable.
Bien évidemment, les responsables des terrains minimisent l’impact de ces opérations et négligent d’informer le joueur lors de la réservation.
Sous estimation flagrante aux Bordes (nous leur avions posé la question; ils avaient répondu que le terrain était très agréable à jouer…).
A Saint Marc, la personne de l’accueil nous a indiqué que les opérations d’entretien planifiées étaient renseignées sur leur site web. Effectivement. Pas évident, néanmoins d’avoir le réflexe de visiter le site d’un golf avant de jouer.
Dans tous les cas, il serait fort urbain, de la part des responsables des golfs, de :
- demander aux hôtesses de prévenir les joueurs lors de la réservation
- pratiquer une ristourne, proportionnelle au désagrément de l’entretien en cours.
J’ai copieusement pimenté sur Golflounge mon commentaire sur les Bordes ainsi que la note attribuée, ce qui a fait dropper la note globale de 9,5 à 8,8
Conclusion :
- attention aux intersaisons
- renseignez-vous avant par téléphone
- négociez le cas échéant
- si vous êtes sur une île déserte non dotée d’un parcours, improvisez votre terrain comme Hurley dans Lost, vous ne rencontrerez pas les désagréments cités ci dessus.

Tres bon poste. Il y a des centaines de golf blogs mais ils touche rarement au suject de l’entretien du parcours.

swiss rolex replicaReplica Breitling Navitimer
First I have to say one thing: Breitling Navitimer two-tone isn’t excatly my “usual style”. This is my “PoM Award watch” and I wanted this model for unselfish reasons (believe it or not). Personally, I prefer the standard stainless steel but since I (and many others) have already reviewed the stainless Navitimers to death I chose the TT model.
Even though there’s a big and constant demand there haven’t been too many reviews of the gold reps. So why not write one?
This doesn’t mean I don’t like gold watches, even my 2 first replicas were Rolex TT Subs. Far from it, I absolutely adore many TT models, including this Navitimer. I just feel I’m a bit too young to comfortably wear gold. Gold doesn’t generally go well with bulky and masculine sports models, but I don’t feel Navitimer falls into this category: With only 30 meters of water resistance and highly polished bracelet Navitimer isn’t exactly a hardcore “sports chronograph”. So gold, in my opinion, goes really well with it. It’s extremely beautiful and dressy, without being too “flashy” and vulgar.
As a replica the TT Navitimer is excellent. The center plated gold links look authentic to my eye. But then I’m not a jeweler, and I have no idea how the rep would “survive” under close inspection. I can only say that this watch has far superior feel compared to the two-tone Submariners I have owned, probably due the “solid” middle links and overall heavy weight of the watch and the bracelet.
Of course I can’t make any technical statements… or say anything about the longevity of the gold plating. I can only say that I’ve never heard anyone complaining about the plating fading off of the bezel. And even if the bracelet starts to fade… we all know how well Navitimer goes with a leather strap. The two-tone model is even available on a leather strap as a default.
