Hollins Hall

[ainley87simon]

I am off work from the 1st September till the 16th Sept - I am looking to get out for a couple of rounds away from my home course, I am based in West Yorkshire I am thinking about heading over to Hollins Hall at the start of september if anyone wishes to join me? I warn you now my golf goes from the sublime to the utterly woeful - I play of 27.

Hi mate, I'm available on Mon/Tue/Wed the 2nd/3rd/5th if you fancy a round. I'm based in Manchester so your neck of the woods isn't too far.

I'm also as woefully inconsistent as yourself so no worries there.

 

[ainley87simon]

Great! I'll drop you a PM closer to the date need to check with HID that I am not going to double book myself with our departure for holiday or anything like that.

Hammer are you playing? Trying to get the Monday off work but not 100% sure I can play.

Hey, Guys.... may be able to fit you in on the on 2nd Sept as part of a Meet (Players from H/Cap of 4 to 26) @ a green fee of close to £20. Let me know if interested in joining this friendly bunch. We have 4 tees from 8.15am

Is the walk to the 1st the same 'ascent from base camp' that it was when I played it a dozen years ago?

Ha, ha..... yeah, yer a fool if you don't accept the free buggy ride to the first tee... even if you do have an electric trolley

2Blue a very kind offer I am still waiting for confirmation from the Mrs RE:holiday dates (last minute booking) But if you will accept (and hold a tentative place until I get confirmation) an unofficial 27 handicapper then great stuff. Heard great stuff about Hollins Hall and it is only 30 mins from my door

 

[2blue]

No probs Simon... when can you let me know? Dave

 

[ainley87simon]

Hi 2blue. If there is still a place for me that's great I'll take it, just let me know how much, who to pay and what time.

If it ain't arrived, then empty your inbox.... There's a place for you if you can hurry on

We had a trip there a year or two back, remember the greens being really difficult and nearly dying walking to the first tee

You're not wrong about the first Tee ..... it is however mostly down hill from there..... until the walk from 10th to 11th.. has some memorable holes as ell as the unforgettable 1st tee

 

[the hammer]

hope you all have a good weekend. dont forget the taxi to the 1st.

I've got to say well done Simon for coming on over and making our team up:clap: it's never easy joining groups that you don't know.... I hope this has got you started... especially as we got in the money with a 2nd team place:lol:

Good to meet you simon! keep that ball low and your hcap will plummet! you have a marvellous swing for a newbie

I am going to hire a bulldozer and flatten some of their greens for them...and maybe have words with the greenkeeper about not cutting the cup on the side of a hill...

great course tho - wonderful views and magnificent company

:whoo:
