£75 East Sussex National: BOTH COURSES + food (50 people required)

[JustOne]

Chatted with the manager today and got an offer for the following

1) 18 holes West Course - ham egg chips - 18 holes East course £75

2) 18 holes West Course - ham egg chips - 18 holes East course - 2 course meal £85


Must be on a weekday in August.... need 50 people for the deal

Am thinking Mon 27th Tue 28th or Wed 29th

Just putting the feelers out as 50 seems like more than a handful, if there's lots of takers then we can get it on.... 2 top quality tournament courses.. for me the best 2 courses in the South East!

Don't know if anyone wants to stay over somewhere and play a different course the next day before heading home... you tell me? But for £75 (or £85) it's a deal worth taking. I don't think it clashes with any other forum meets???

Any takers?

I've just returned from a weekend there, played the east Saturday, use of facilities and 3 course meal, nights accommodation and buffet brekkie then played the west, £135 each!

West course is probably the best course I've ever played, and it's very well looked after. After a round the staff take your clubs off and clean them too, you don't get service like that playing crown golf!

Don't think I can make it around both courses in the same day though, one was enough for me!

36 around there would kill me too James.
I'd be interested in 18 around either though

 

[PNWokingham]

that might tie in with my 2 weeks off - following week is Hillside - haven't booked it yet but if I do, I will be up for this. Thanks James

What's the nearest airport to this place??

It looks a really tough track but its a bit too far to drive

 

[TXL]

Not sure if you have realised that the Monday is the August Bank holiday so I doubt the offer will be available.

Tuesday is the only day I could make, so if that is what you go for, I would be up for it.

 

[USER1999]

I would be ok for this. I have always wanted to play there, and see why you rate it so highly. I assume there is only one tree on the whole course, and fairways that are 300 yards wide?

Gatwick is probably closest.

I'd be interested in this, always wanted to play it, so at that price I'd be mad not o

We're planning a week in France that week, if the dates change then let me know.

Just had a look and gatwick is the nearest but I'd have to hire a car to get there.

Sorry fella I'm out.

 

[RichardC]

I'm up for this.

 

[ScienceBoy]

I am up for this but sadly I cannot be certain until after May. At the end of May I can commit to MANY things but before then I cannot for ANYTHING more than a month or two away.

If you want to stick me as a reserve that's fine but I am VERY interested so don't mind either way.

Stuart, I could pick you up from Gatwick, as I'd have to come past it?

James, keep me posted with the date, as I'm interested.

 

[Laughing Gravy]

As mentioned before we're staying there end of June for 4 nights. Will let you know what it was like on our return.

The plan was to do a stableford around the West, each man to himself, and then a 4-ball round the East with the best 2 scores counting, something to make it fun and a bit easier where contributing on a couple of holes would help your 'team' even if you have a total mare on the other 16 holes

There's nothing easy about playing the West & East in the same day although at least the courses are fairly flat, but to organise a whole event there and only play the one course would be missing out. 18 holes is rarely enough to feed the passion for play at a forum meet.

I need the numbers to get the price, it's normally £60 for one round so two rounds with food for £75 is a bargain and makes it worth the trip.... to go home feeling dead as a dodo

 

[anotherdouble]

Count me in this one

 

[Scottjd1]

This sounds good, im up for it....

Careful Stuart, he will probably not drop you back and leave you stranded

 

[SyR]

Can you stick me down as a maybe. I would love to play here again. I grew up playing golf here and would love to see how it's developed since I last played there. Will they let us play off the blue tees or will it be the whites?

 

[G1BB0]

balls

would love to but all leave is now taken in August.

As long as the final date fits, count me in
