Is this the HARDEST course in Queensland?

Break 85 at Maleny Golf Club: Conquering the Sunshine Coast's Quirky Beast! Ever dreamed of breaking 85 on a course that looks like a postcard but plays like a puzzle? In this episode of my "Break 85" series, I take on Maleny Golf Club on the Sunshine Coast—a stunning yet sneaky challenging 18-hole Par 69 championship course nestled high in the rolling green hills of the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. Perched in the heart of the Maleny region, less than 90 minutes from Brisbane, this links-style gem blends natural beauty with tricky elevation changes, quirky fairways, and picturesque views that can distract even the most focused golfer. Designed to test your strategy and short game, Maleny is an award-winning visitor-friendly spot (as praised on TripAdvisor and Golf.org.au), but don't let the scenic hinterland vibes fool you—it's a big test for any handicap, with tight holes and undulating greens that demand precision over power.In this round, I start strong (or so I thought) but face the course's infamous quirks head-on. From chunking shots on the elevated tees to navigating the deceptive par-3s, I share my highs, lows, and tips to help you tackle similar challenges. Will I break 85, or will Maleny's beauty turn brutal? Watch to see the full round, my swing breakdowns, and how I manage the mental game on this short but feisty layout. If you're planning a trip to the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, Maleny Golf Club (malenygolfclub.com.au) is a must-play—book ahead for their welcoming atmosphere and pro shop perks!
