Philippine Army Golf

Perfect place for beginners. I am a beginner golfer also. Plenty trainers available for lessons. Cost are vary by trainer I suppose. The range is quite big but do get crowded in the morning on weekend and holiday. I been coming here 4 weeks in a row now. Relaxin ambient, pro shop, restaurant and coffee shop also available.

After previously trying out the golf range at Villamor Air Base, I decided to visit this range to check out what was on offer. It is a bit further out of Makati but was surprised by how quick we got there. Unlike Villamor, your taxi can drop you off right outside the range. There are about 45 bays, around 15 with an astro turf carpet base whilst the others you practice on a dirt base. Dirt base I think was 50 pesos per hour cheaper. Prices very similar to Villamor but Army Golf has 2 big differences. The clubs I hired had decent grips and here you have the option of tee-up girls/boys. I took up the option of a tee-up person to save my back and gave the young man 200 pesos which he seemed happy about. Further to my original review, later during my stay in Manila I played on the course a number of times and found it testing with quite a few water hazards which made things difficult. It's just 9 holes (par 34) with raised greens but were receptive with good approach shots.

Good place. Affordable price. Sometimes many people are waiting but you don't have to wait so long time.

This 9 hole course is by no means a long course but what this place has going for it is that for its size and proximity to the city, you get a good driving range, a 9-hole course enough to scratch the golf itch, and a good restaurant. You can spend under 1.5 hours in this place and get 9 holes in plus a bucket of balls if you come early. The restroom in the driving range is airconditioned too. Might not be a place you go to spend an entire morning but definitely a place to go to for a quick fix.

Regulations changed. All foreingers have to submit passport copies to register here. I have to submit passport copies again in spite of submitting 1 month before. They said I have to wait for 3 weeks for registration. It may be discrimination against foreigners.
