Welcome to Pattaya's most popular golfing website
The O.K. Corral is situated in Rungland Village, just off South Pattaya Road, opposite the International Telecommunications Centre, South Pattaya, and is the home of the Pattaya Golf Society - originally affectionately known as the "Bunker Boys". The Pattaya Golf Society, Pattaya's oldest golf society, ranks as one of the most popular golf groups in Pattaya with competitions arranged three times each week. On Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays we play competitions which are either stableford or medal based, in two flights, according to the handicaps of those involved. The start of the month sees a change of format with an ever popular team/pairs event arranged to break up the routine and offer players an enjoyable extra option. In addition we hold two Order of Merit events each month and the Society's annual Player of the Year is thus chosen. The Pattaya Golf Society is affiliated to the International Pattaya Golf Club (IPGC). Members comprise of long term residents and holidaymakers alike, and all are welcome, regardless of gender, age or handicap. Every month we play a selection of the twenty-one unique courses available in the area. For serious golfers the OK Corral is the ideal base and excellent ensuite accomodation is available at a very reasonable price.
