GM North East Meet: 1st Dec 2012. Venue TBC

I've just seen a deal on one of those groupon type sites for Alnwick Castle - £34 for a fourball and £19 for a twoball.

Works out at about £8.50 a round!

Is this a possibility to play? I know its a bit of a hike but what do people think?
 
Alnwick is a lovely course, some very distinctive holes, none more so than the first, second and third... what a start to a round of golf they are!
 
I just suggested it due to the deal TBH.

I think we should find one Newcastle way, then one towards Teesside for the more Southern lads after that. At least it balances the travelling for all.

I don't know the standard/likely condition of many Newcastle courses so looking for some suggestions from those that do.

I think one of the best draining courses round here is Tyneside GC. I played there just after the bad spell of rain we had a few months back and it was fine whereas most other courses were still shut

It does start to get a bit boggy at this time of the year but I still love the place! Stunning scenery and you really feel as if your away from everything up there!

And they serve Stella Black in the bar!!

alnmouth have members comps on saturday so you will only be able to get a tee time on afternoon or if your lucky may get one on morning.

newbiggin sounds good to me also gives me a chance to get a game there as i think there is a scratch there next year and maybe a be a good chance for a practice round for me

Thats the thing with weekend games...a lot of courses still have comps on through the winter.harder to get a group of tees togethor...I dont think the forum can solely stick to just weekend games,more expensive at a weekend too.
