WHS - Kilsyth Lennox Golf Club

Looking down from the 15th Fairway towards the 18th Green and the Club House

THERE IS A FAIR AMOUNT OF REPETION AND DUPLICATION HERE BUT THAT IS INEVITABLE AS THE WHS IS AN INTEGRATED SYSTEM AND ONE PART OVERLAPS IN TO ANOTHER. SOME OF THE LINKS POINT TO VIDEOS PRODUCED BY/FOR GOLF ENGLAND BUT AS IT IS A WORLD HANDICAP SYSTEM (WHS) THEY SHOULD STILL BE PERTINENT. IF A SCOTTISH GOLF EQUIVALENT BECOMES AVAILABLE WE WILL SUBSTITUTE IT
