The Nicklaus Design Ocean Course,\u00a0FLC Quy Nhon Golf Links had made a solid impression as easily amongst the best golf courses in Vietnam. It is also one that would form part of a discerning golfer\u2019s Vietnam golf holiday. There was nothing to fault it for \u2013 the layout, the condition and the setting. Not unlike my rounds at other exceptional golf courses, I struggled through most of the round. My long-standing excuse of \u201conly there to inspect\u201d the course had been my only \u201cstrategy\u201d against it. As is to be expected, such a strategy is unlikely to deliver good scores. And when combined with lack of skill, there is absolute certainty of disaster. I was keen on bouncing back from this apathy which was threatening consistency with a good round around the Mountain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2997 size-full\" title=\"MOUNTAIN COURSE, FLC QUY NHON GOLF LINKS\" src=\"https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/MOUNTAIN-COURSE-FLC-QUY-NHON-GOLF-LINKS-2.jpg\" alt=\"MOUNTAIN COURSE, FLC QUY NHON GOLF LINKS\" width=\"770\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/MOUNTAIN-COURSE-FLC-QUY-NHON-GOLF-LINKS-2.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/MOUNTAIN-COURSE-FLC-QUY-NHON-GOLF-LINKS-2-300x136.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/MOUNTAIN-COURSE-FLC-QUY-NHON-GOLF-LINKS-2-768x349.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was a good ten minutes of a buggy ride that brought me to the 10<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">th<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> tee of the Mountain course, FLC Quy Nhon Golf Links. Still captivated by the brilliance of the Ocean course, I did not expect to be wowed anytime soon. After all, it is difficult to imagine that two courses from FLC Quy Nhon Beach &amp; Golf Resort can both hold their own. And yet, there was pure magic that ensued, leaving me confused <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">about<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> which of the two was better. A needless thought, when you really don\u2019t have to choose one. Truly, the Schmidt-Curley Mountain course is right up there with the best <a href=\"https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/golf-courses\/vietnam\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">golf courses in Vietnam<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2994 size-full\" title=\"FLC QUY NHON BEACH &amp; GOLF RESORT, QUY NHON\" src=\"https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/FLC-Quy-Nhon-Beach-Golf-Resort-1.jpg\" alt=\"FLC Quy Nhon Beach &amp; Golf Resort\" width=\"770\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/FLC-Quy-Nhon-Beach-Golf-Resort-1.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/FLC-Quy-Nhon-Beach-Golf-Resort-1-300x136.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/FLC-Quy-Nhon-Beach-Golf-Resort-1-768x349.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I have to confess that I was relieved to see the room available for tee shot on the 10<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">th<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Battered and bruised from the previous day\u2019s round, this made me feel welcome indeed. A kind golf course, or so I thought! Wider does not mean easier and that is exactly how it turned out. The swirling wind and elevation changes can easily make a meal out of apparently straightforward holes. Thankfully, even as that continually happened, I did not lose the chance of consuming every view along the way. One of the best was with an enormous ocean backdrop on the downhill par 3, 14<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">th<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> hole. And there were many others, which helped take the heat off the golf to be played. Which, I did as well as on the Ocean course. An unmitigated disaster. The consistency with which these disasters come now, makes them \u201cun\u201d- disastrous.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2996 size-full\" title=\"MOUNTAIN COURSE, FLC QUY NHON GOLF LINKS, QUY NHON\" src=\"https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/MOUNTAIN-COURSE-FLC-QUY-NHON-1.jpg\" alt=\"MOUNTAIN COURSE, FLC QUY NHON\" width=\"770\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/MOUNTAIN-COURSE-FLC-QUY-NHON-1.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/MOUNTAIN-COURSE-FLC-QUY-NHON-1-300x136.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/MOUNTAIN-COURSE-FLC-QUY-NHON-1-768x349.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nothing about the Mountain Course is disastrous though. It complements the Ocean course perfectly in the style and layout. In fact, the two courses along with a resort stay at the FLC make an ideal stay and play option. While Quy Nhon is off the beaten trail, the FLC Quy Nhon Golf Links sets up remarkably well in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.golftripz.com\/golf-holidays\/vietnam\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vietnam golf holidays<\/a>.
