Have a match at Three Locks in the morning and if time may fancy loosening up, will be coming from Oxford direction. Don't think they have a range on site so what can the locals recommend please?
 
There is Abbey Hill , Tilsworth , Wavendon or I think Aylesbury Vale have one

Coming from Oxford then Aylesbury Vale would be the sensible choice as the others are a bit out of the way
 
Aylesbury Vale as good as anywhere as you will be able to hit off grass (ball quality can be a little variable though as you will get part range balls part used golf balls), also a pitching/chipping green you can use

Driving wise, head through Aylesbury up to Wing on the A418 then turn left down towards the golf course on Stewkley Road. To get to 3 locks from there head back to Wing pick up the A418 again then turn onto the A4146
 
Coming in from Oxford there's the range at Long Crendon near Thame - Southfields
On the Wing side of Aylesbury there's a range at the far end of Bierton - the old Aylesbury Golf Centre just before you hit the countryside on the road the Wing/L. Buzzard
 
Cheers Mr Murg. Know Southfields as my irons came from there but was hoping to be a little closer to keep an eye on time. I couldn't be sure if the golf centre was still going or not.
Couple of options then.
Thanks all.
