Hillside GC OpenComps

[staffo77]

The open comps will soon be available to book for Hillside and i was wondering if anyone has played it and could comment whether it is worth the £75. It is a course i have heard good things about though never really more than in magazines.

Be nice to here some of your thoughts.

Lots of us played in at last years GM forum mega meet, Personally I loved it and am trying to get a team from my club to play in a ladies open there.

Worth every penny and more. A fantastic course that plays like a pussycat when there's no wind but like a tiger in even a mild breeze (and there's nearly always a breeze at least.)

what's the HC limit?

 

[Birchy]

Ive been snooping at these too. Very tempted

Would be interested but there's a few too many random ex Liverpool players knocking about for my liking. You can't tee off without bumping into Dalgliesh or Hansen.

Is there any plans for another meet there this year. Having trouble convincing my playing partners to play

A little off topic but a great open worth looking into is the Kilgrimol Trophy at St Annes Old Links,It's 10-20 handicap only and it's on August bank holiday Monday £20.
Always well run and with decent prizes its well worth a look.

The back nine is worth £75 alone.......:thup:

Oi ragarse, it's Mr Dalglish to you

Is right Stu, give me a bell when convenient, hope things are well with you.

They don't understand when they are in the presence of greatness.

Staffo - 2 things. A mate of mine played in a pairs open 2 years ago and it took him and his partner about 6 hours for the round,which spoiled it for him, I don't think it was just the group in front, it was the same throughout.

However, Hillside is brilliant, well worth £75. We tried to get on it but I left it to someone else, who didn't sort it properly. You need to be on-line at the time, as all times went in 10 minutes. I may look myself, when does it open? If anyone else needs a partner, and I'm not successful........

Or in my case, Kenny's ball nearly bumping into me.

Alright Dan, it's on hold at the minute as works not looking too rosey again and I dont want to part with :£4k (joining fee and subs upfront) and have no work for a month or two.

Don't worry if I get in you'll be invited for a round
