Re: Bolton Old Links GMNWOOM EVENT

Wondered when someone was going to ask all square at Leyland and won 3 and 2 today, very hard in the wind today but you can't beat local knowledge

Well done mate :thup: Ive not even played first leg yet! Phoned my oppo a few times but nothing back yet. I need play both legs by next Sunday :rofl:

BOL seems like a course for local knowledge from what you told me so it stood you in good stead by sound of it.
 
Re: Bolton Old Links GMNWOOM EVENT

Why where is his course?

Flixton, its only 5 mins from Davyhulme. If i get in touch by weekend we can hopefully squeeze it in next week. Bet you cant wait play Bootle muni :lol:

They model the comp on starting with home and away so you can get an away game in yet they draw clubs closest together against each other! Whats the point? most people have played the courses 5 mins from their own surely! :confused:
 
Re: Bolton Old Links GMNWOOM EVENT

looking forward to bolton. ive watched the video of the holes. looks tastey! hope it dies down for sunday. i was out driving there now and the car was all over the place never mind powercaddies!

I hear you, I meant to e-mail them about this last time and didn't get around to it. Most people have played the courses nearer to them.

Today and tomorrow are pretty windy but luckily its supposed be calmer at weekend :)
 
Re: Bolton Old Links GMNWOOM EVENT

Unless the weather app on my phone is lying to me then it looks a lot calmer tomorrow wind-wise. Although being on top of the hills I'm sure it will still be a little blustery to say the least.

Choked full of the cold today, hopefully feel better tomorrow.
