Re: Bolton Old Links GMNWOOM EVENT

Cheers mate!!!! All my free weekends seem to be taken up by trips to Wembley. What are you doing on May 11th????:D

Love it, playing a reds v blues game of cricket in the morning (if scouser pulls his finger out and gets us a pitch).

Thats a merseysiders cup final day, these days.:(

Oh yes, cheering you on from 5.30. I'll be a pie-eater for the day, ahem.:whistle:

Only a few days left now is anybody else joining us on Friday 19th apart from the people below, LB and Gregbwfc have said that they will play on another date, also are your H/C still the same these are 7/8s.
Tees are booked from 14:30 some of you will get a £5 refund due to being members at local clubs who have a reciprocal agreement.
There are practice nets next door to the pros shop, the putting green is in front of the 1st tee there is also a practice area between the 2nd and 18th fairways should you wish to use it no drivers or long irons its not that big.
Anybody who wants something to eat before or after see John in the club house there is a good selection of food available.
I will be up there from about 13:00
Don't think Fish can make due to moving house so could go out as 3 and 4 ball ? or two 2 balls and a 3 ball ? What ever you like by the way the draw will be made on Thursday at 18:00 if some one wants an early time just let me know

There are a few holes were you can not see the greens from the tees
5th 7th 8th 11th 12th 15th and 18th
Remember when walking down the 5th that the 6th tee is to you LEFT in front of the green not the RIGHT as this takes you to the 15th
When getting to the 7th green the 8th tee is to your Left in front of the green keepers barn apart from that its a piece of cake hope you all enjoy yourselfs.

You can put your golf shoes on in the car park

Well done Graham, Looks like you have everything under control.

Dont forget you flat caps, people!!!!

I also take it (unless stipulated), that these are all "official" cards. Graham I'll be in touch in due course to sort mine out, maybe give you a rest for a week or so, then check what's convenient for you.

Just a note - we looked at Karl's first round and the captains committee are happy for his 25 points to stand. We are sure it was an honest mistake, and we do have his 7/8th' score anyway.

LB.
 
Re: Bolton Old Links GMNWOOM EVENT

Thanks to a run of early season 0.1's my handicap is 8, so 7 for this Friday:)

Will make not a jot of difference the way I've been chipping and putting recently, could do with adding a 1 to the front!
 
Re: Bolton Old Links GMNWOOM EVENT

Looking forward to this, forecast for friday is fine, wind about 12mph, undoubtably stronger on the hills.
 
Re: Bolton Old Links GMNWOOM EVENT

Hope it's a good day for you all and enjoy it, it's a great track.
Other OOMers who need to play, maybe we can try to get 3 of us out if possible, save Graham having to put in extra rounds.
Next week, I'm ok any time Tuesday, Wednesday, then after say 3:30 on Friday.
Week after would have to be Friday again, but if anyone has other days which are good, I can try to switch things around.
 
Re: Bolton Old Links GMNWOOM EVENT

Yes my house move is confirmed as this Friday so had to cry this one off. I will arrange another day and play along with Martin & Graham on a day we can all get together.
 
Re: Bolton Old Links GMNWOOM EVENT

Just been up to club and had 9 holes and I can't believe the differents the course is from last Friday afternoon everything was different shades of brown now a few days later with a bit of rain and sun the course has come alive now different shades of green. :lol:
And of course the wind was stronger today than last week with Karl but a lot warmer. :cool:
