Morrinsville Golf Club is a golf course on Links Road, on the rural edge of Morrinsville in the Waikato's Matamata-Piako district, with a website at morrinsvillegolf.co.nz.
A round at a small Waikato country course is a different pleasure from a resort layout: fairways run firm over old pasture, greens are honest rather than lightning-fast, and green fees are usually modest. Visitors are generally welcome outside club days, when members hold the tee for a few hours, so it pays to ring ahead. On flat dairy country you walk easily and the breeze matters more than hills — take an extra club into the wind. Beginners needn't be shy either; summer twilight golf and hire clubs make a first round easy at most clubs.
On the dairy plain between Hamilton and Matamata, Morrinsville Golf Club sits squarely in that tradition.
