Blackmoor Meet Monday 27th June 2011

[richart]

Yes please put me down, also if there is a sniff of a game before then I'd be up for it.

See what we can do.Want to get a bit of local knowledge before the big event ?

 

[richart]

I'll be up for this, it sounds like a great day and I love quick greens.
I just need to work out how to get there and back.

You must have one of the shortest journeys

 

[sawtooth]

Looks a great course and yes its only about 20 miles for me.

You cant be far from Old Thorns which is also meant to be very nice.

 

[Leftie]

Murph has fond memories of Old Thorns.

Water lapping over his designer footward on the fairways and a bow wave around the front wheel of his trolley.

Not so keen on Old Thorns, but Liphook is very nice. Both are just up the road from Blackmoor.

 

[full_throttle]

[Smiffy]

The rate this is going Smiffy may be too late for a place. Extra incentive there guys.

No chance.
One of the benefits of being "co organiser".
I'm No 2!!

Thanks to Rich for sorting out the green fee of £55.00. Superb negotiation skills for such a great looking course.

As I said before, I don't think they're is a bad review amongst them so I think everybody will be really pleased with the venue.
It was hoped that we could play a 9 hole texas scramble in the morning but, like a lot of club, Blackmoor don't allow that format.
What we thought about doing was once we know exactly who is coming, work out the average handicap and pick one "low" and one "high" handicapped player and have a pairs competition for a bit of fun.
Just one other thing...if any guests do come along, they will have their own competition and be excluded from the main forum comp to avoid a repeat of Cooden
Looks like it's going to be a cracking meet, and thanks once again Rich for sorting it.
And as it's the middle of June my white trousers will definitely be getting an airing...

I hope the cut off point for "average handicap" is 11 Murph. You could be paired with me in the morning then

 

[USER1999]

The way my game is at the moment, we could come last. Is there a prize?

 

[Robobum]

Yes please put me down

 

[Smiffy]

Yes please put me down

[Imurg]

Put me down as a probable, almost certain.

Need to check dates with the Management but sholdn't be a problem.

 

[funkyfred]

With so many good handicap golfers putting their names in I think I should help capt grey (26 h/c) balance the tide and put myself forward (h/c 25) if that is OK

Hopefully Redlibberts (poss april) will be my first forum meeting followed by this. I must be mad.

 

[LIG]

Yes please put me down

I'll just load my shotgun!

Please put my NAME down, Smiffy.
