Camberley Heath Day, Monday 18th June - Payments now due

[Region3]

(hope all is well Gary).

All is well thanks James, but I'd been a bit over ambitious with the amount of holiday I thought I might get from work this year (new job) so a couple of days out have had to go because I daren't use it ALL up on golf.

Maybe by the time I next get to a meet I'll be off a proper handicap!

A chunk of my hard earned has left my account... spend it wisely

Received with thanks James

I have a sneaky feeling you'll be giving me shots next time :whoo:

 

[ScienceBoy]

Dang, missed a close one! Curses to me taking the time off!

Has Smiffy paid yet?

 

[TXL]

There have been a few changes I have been catching up on - that'll teach me to go away for a week!!

thecraw and bobmac have had to withdraw
Foxholer is still unsure
but a new entry haplesshacker (when he lets me know which option he would like to play)

Hope I have not missed anyone else!

Those that have not paid yet, highlighted in red, please get in touch ASAP to let me know your intentions, play/drop out - thanks.

The attendees list is set out below with up to date payment status.

I am now a serious doubt for this meet. Sorry Anthony. I may be going out to China on the Sunday, in which case I'll have to cancel. I won't know for sure til later this week, early next week. Not happy.

Sorry to hear that Murph.
It'll save you getting knobbled by Anthony up the last again though!!

Played Camberley Heath yesterday and thought it was a stunning course in almost every way but be warned, the green side bunkers are very poor. They massively lack sand.

I can vouch for that as i was in nearly everyone when i played with Kellfire.

A really nice course just a shame the bunkers were a bit poor, there was at most a inch or so of loose sand then it just seemed to be rock hard underneath.

Apart from that i can't fault it, not the longest of courses but the short par 4's are well thought out so you can't just go for them with the driver.

 

[haplesshacker]

Anthony. Just paid tonight. I'll go for the full day, 27 holes please. Really looking forward to catching up with you all. It's been a long time. Mind you, I've only played four times this year so far, so I don't know what h'cap I'll be off? 19, 24, or 28? I guess my old club h'cap from two years ago (28) won't be allowed!!!!!!

That makes them about perfect then.

come on grow some it's a school day, she would never know

Really?

I'd expect more in a green side bunker as your club just bounced off the rock hard surface underneath if you tried to take a cushion of sand.

 

[richart]

A lot of courses are struggling with their bunkers. All the rain seems to have washed away the sand, and made the base rock hard.

More importantly what were the greens like ?

 

[ScienceBoy]

Give me a day or two, if there is any space left then I might be able to. I just have to shift a few things around.

I am sure the wife will let me do things other than sleep in the bed eventually

 

[USER1999]

Really?

I'd expect more in a green side bunker as your club just bounced off the rock hard surface underneath if you tried to take a cushion of sand.

Why?

Half inch of fluffy, half inch of firm, and that's perfect. Just enough sand to slide the club under the ball.

Bunging in 6" deep sand, that comes over your shoes is a nonsence. The ball just plugs in it, and the club just buries itself. That's not a bunker, it's a beach. The ball can get stuck half way up the front edge, or just down from the lip, somewhere you can't even stand. In proper bunkers, the ball rolls to the bottom. This won't happen if the sand is too deep. Ever see a Pro playing from two inches down from the lip, on an 80° slope?

The bunkers at the Belfry were perfect when I played there. Getting out was easy, getting spin was easy (enough for control, any way), judging the distance was easy. The sand was perfect. Just enough is plenty.

Yeah it seemed as though that's what had happend a dusting on the top where it had been raked then rock hard inderneath.

Greens were perfect, and pretty quick. Fairways were running quick with plenty of roll to.

 

[richart]

Like the sound of the greens, but not sure about running fairways.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

not sure about running fairways.

Shouldn't be an issue with your game. You're only on nodding terms with them as you head to the outreaches of the course to hit the next one
