Woburn and H4H is all I have in the diary. I do have two vouchers to use at the Army GC and Bramley GC which I plan to use during Royal Ascot week when our course is a virtual no go zone and down to 12 holes anyway

 

[full_throttle]

April - Hill Valley weekender and Woodall Spa weekender
May - Woburn
July - Cooden Beach and Hunstanton/kings Lynn 3 days
August - Gainsborough 3 days


not too busy although thinking of joining a local society which plays 12 games during the season at various courses

Darren, don't waste your time or money on Woodbury, it's average at best. Rest of your list is top notch though

 

[Doon frae Troon]

Hmmm and guess who turned down an invitation to play Turnberry Ailsa tomorrow.

I think that is now the end of my playing days.
A few knocks round my local 9 holes is probably as far as I will be going next year

Going to do Littlestone and Ganton, and also Wildernesse.

Princes do a good 2 x 36er (one or other or both!) at start of May.

Would rather do RND or Saunton April Medals than Woodbury.....

I was thinking of doing Lydd!

Has Woodbury gone down hill then? I was a member there back in the late 90's early naughties whilst Mansell had it and it was a cracking course and club we had a ball there during that time. I'm aware its got a massive hotel etc there now but didnt think it would slip badly....

Sorry to hear that Doon, but hope you'll stick around on the forum, your posts are always well worth reading.

Fourballs at Sunningdale New, The Berkshire, Cuddington, Coombe Hill and Tandridge. Plus the usual Society days at Hankley, West Hill, Woking, Worplesdon, St Georges Hill, Burhill, North Hants, West Byfleet, West Surrey, Cowdray Park.

Few forum meets pencilled in at Woodhall Spa and Cooden, and of course the H4H day. Hopefully Slasher will invite me to Bearwood Lakes again.

It's the Devon mid am @ Woodbury - is it that bad there? Don't they have a seniors tour event on it?

It's a typical 80/90's new course, probably used to be farm fields with a few trees. Pretty wide open and featureless, played it a couple of times and wouldn't bother going back. Also, it holds a lot of moisture so if there is any rain before the event it will be soggy underfoot.
