Anyone a member here? Been given the chance to join through uni for £80 a year 7 day membership with handicap, doesn't seem too bad at all!

What does everyone think of the course?

and to any current members who are going to be overrun with students, sorry!
 
I used to go for lesson there, sadly the pro has moved to another location now.

Its not a bad course in fairness, I have played it quite a few times, its not too long (from the red tees) and has some nice holes.

They do not (or didn't) use mats in winter like a lot of courses do around here although there is a part of the course that can get very wet in winter.

I imaging that a lot of clubs offer reduced fees for students, Ours does for instance' are you travelling to uni from Wigan every day? if so it might be worth looking for something nearer home.

I'm a member at Haigh Hall at the minute, £12.50 a month and was going to let this run along side, as £80 for a year seems a bargain and I travel in to uni 3 days a week from Wigan, but I have early finishes on 2 of those days so could nip and play after. It is through joining the MMU Golf Society, so I would get to play with my mates who live at uni and hopefully meet a few more mates as well as get to play in the BUCS University Northern golf league.

So for £80 seems a pretty good deal to me, it's only a 30 minute drive and could run along side my Haigh Hall membership.

However I do know Wigan Golf Club (Very Nice) offer a full student membership at £250 a year.

What club are you at out of interest? And how much is it there?

Thanks

Jake
