GM Ryder Cup England v Scotland rematch

[DCB]

madandra,

Whitekirk was one I thought of along with Gullane no2. Trouble is Whitekirk is in the middle of nowhere as far as folks getting digs etc are concerned. It's also a bit of a beast of a course, not one I would chose for myself if you know what I mean. as a commercial concern they would probably be happy to accomodate though.

Still waiting for response from Goswick.

 

[Dodger]

I would rather play tiddlywinks than Whitekirk!

 

[Tommo21]

The Glen? althought like the Dunbar idea.

Love Dunbar, great track and right on the A1. How much was the goswick deal last time round???

 

[Dodger]

Half that and you are getting close Andy...it was February tho.

 

[madandra]

iirc it was £70 for the two rounds and a bite on the Friday night after the round.

 

[viscount17]

£40, I remember it well - it was the accommodation that added up, three nights for me.

 

[Screwback]

Is it going to be in October or February???

 

[CannyFifer]

If duffers are allowed i'd put my name in

 

[Owen_Thomas_14]

Think i might be in too if in the Dunbar area as my gran got house down there, think she could take few people too if you dont mind old people

 

[Tommo21]

I just checked the prices for Dunbar and I just cant see them do the deal as good as goswick. Could always ask.

You'll have plenty time for tiddlywinks on a wednesday night.

That's the problem with a lot of places unfortunately, if their fixture card isn't jam packed already, then the cost seems to be prohibitive. I can't see many folks willing to pay circa £90-100 for two rounds of golf at some of the places mentioned so far.

Alec, I played last time off 25. Really worried about doing it initially but everyone was really encouraging. Well worth doing if you get half a chance.

ps I think we need to get Dodger Senior back to do the tee announcements - he's way better than the guy that does the Open.

 

[John_Findlay]

The deal at Goswick was unbeatable last time. I realise Dodger can't commit to organising it this time but what's stopping us playing there again?

 

[USER1999]

Goswick would get my vote, as all the others mentioned are that bit too far away, and I don't like travelling too far for a game.

 

[StuartD]

Agree that Goswick is the best venue.

Think we have discussed different venues before but came to the conclusion that Goswick was best for all

J_F, Murph, StuartD et al...

Goswick would certainly be my first choice as it is a good venue bothe golf wise and location wise.

Sent an enquiry on Monday afternoon, waiting for a response from them.

Goswick would be fine for Tommo. Near the steal price of the last time would be a bonus and I'm sure Dodger could put a word in the right direction.

 

[CannyFifer]

What days are you all planning on playing?
I work in a tight environment regarding days off as cover is needed so would need to know sharpish. not pushing anyone but would like to add my considerable weight to the Scotland side and my handicap might help

 

[Dodger]

Any news on venues or is the silence still deafening Dave?
