Forum meets 2021

[Imurg]

Yep, I was part of the famous 8 ball. It was just bad communication really. 2 groups on the last tee and everyone agreed to drive and then one 4 ball would finish the hole, followed by the other. Trouble is, we did not agree which 4 ball would play their second shots first and so it ended up as an 8 ball down the last. It was all done with the intention of clearing the hole quicker for those behind but did not quite work like that.

It was just that, everyone attempting to drive the green and the wind taking the balls into the rough. In our group only one drove the green and I waited untill the others played through and then sunk the chip for a 2 net 1.

its in the Vid at the end, broke Stuarts heart as he had a putt for a 2

It would be nice it a meet was organized further North of Watford.

There have been a number - the most recent meet was in Scotland , that’s North of Watford , same with the one in Turnberry and then one Aberdeen , been a couple in Coventry and one in Woburn. Forest Pines every single year as well

How about a Hollinwell, Sherwood & Coxmoor @MarkT

3 top courses, all close together and right in the middle of the country (and in no way handy for me) ?

Hollinwell has been making some changes as well, with new bunkering

That would be nearer the County Durham area really........ remember we're all in it together.

I'm sure I played in the last of the matches against HDID. Someone arranged to play at The Worcestershire at Malvern. Unfortunately, that meant that not many wanted to travel there. We ended up as a fourball, betterball for the trophy. Not sure what year though.

You would have thought GM would have been able to get us a great deal at Wentworth, being the pre-eminent golf magazine that it is, the magazine of choice for Sultans, Presidents, tradesmen and accountants.

Surely Sunningdale Old and New would be more fitting.

Its secret handshake stuff now that Beijing own it mate. Plus , an Alwoodly Moortown double header would be on better courses.

Always great when people moan about things that AREN'T organised...

Just organise it yourself ?‍

Yet again banter and humour pass you by

I had a look on the No Laying Up forum (think the call it the nest). Posted a bit, but it is very American, however there is a solid UK following who have their own thread for meets and arranging games. Seem like a decent bunch.

i had a look on there a few months ago, I didn’t like the layout so never bothered registering.
