Nothing arranged, will ask how much they charge, if anything?
 
Looking forward to this now, need to sort my irons sharpish though. Played saturday and was carving lumps of turf on every iron shot.

Already downloaded the course Map to the skycaddie. will probably forget to charge it!
 
Robin, have you been told from what time the bacon/coffee is served?
What time is everybody else planning to be there?

Just through being nosey, have you got everyone's handicap?

If you want to do a list my 4 are: me 6, Andy 12, Paul 11, Mark 10.

Gibbos aiming to get to me for 7.45, we're approx an hour and a 1/4 away so assuming no hitches we'll be there at approx 9am, plenty of time to have a bacon butty and a coffee loosen up then chop it round :)
 
I do like the practice area at FoA so I may need a blast in the bunkers as my sand play is shocking (well all my play is actually and range is shut atm so will be rustier than a rusty thing thats very rusty)
 
Im going there tomorrow so will confirm actual times but I think if we all get there for 9am we'll be fine.
 
Hope it warms up a bit for Sunday.....It was cold today. Looking forward to meeting you all and having my first game in a few weeks!! hope the weather improves.....

Do we have a choice of tees to play off?

Its always the yellows as a visitor which is good enough around the championship course. The whites would be a bit testing and long on some holes for some that are going and the blues are frightening!

I'm "hoping" to have to play there in a competition (just cursed myself now!) and guess it'll be from the whites, so would have been nice to have a go off them Sunday, but I can understand most wouldn't want to.
 
You can for me. After all, I assume Jan will be off the reds (could be wrong) so you wouldn't be on your own.

Imagine the stick you'd get if you didn't win though...... still want to?

On some of the tee blocks you'll see the whites just set back a bit so you'll get a good idea, only a few holes there's a significant difference. Yellows to whites the variable is only 250 yards but yellows to blues is 800!

The reds are 800 shorter than the yellows so we'll have our work cut out if Jan is on form ;)
