If I didn't play off 28 I would come.. Links golf kinda scares me lol

You have absolutely nothing to worry about fella, get yer backside across. There are plenty of folk who will help you round and I won't mind playing with you and neither will anyone else.

Ian I really wouldn't worry about it, the comps we ran were stableford points and we had some very good golfers coming in with very low points 18+ for 18 holes (noone broke handicap) so I really wouldn't let that put you off the experience that Guinness and top links golf gives you, especially when you get a par or strike a cracking shot into the wind etc. plus you will get to meet a few of us.... But don't let that last bit put you off!
The views alone are worth the money alone, especially from the 7th tee box in the glashedy.

hehe, cheers guys.. Sounds like a plan... any idea how much the deposit is going to be? and whats the nearest airport? Londonderry?

Deposit was £35 I think last year. Regarding airports Derry would be closest and I can pick you up there (I kinda pass the airport from where I am) or I am sure someone else will be coming past Belfast as well.
 
Deposit will be £35 again this year as I got the same rates as last year (I had to beg a little as the rounds had gone up 10 euros each) A few of us will more than likely be playing Castlerock again this year on the way up, great warm up for the weekend to come. you will be more than welcome there too.

Ok, Stick my name down ;) Flights ain't too bad... Hopefully ill lose a few shots between April - May ;)

Good man Ian:thup:

You wont regret it

Im nearest and probably best placed to pick you/anyone else needing a lift from Derry airport, just let us know when and I or smeone else if needed will get you.
 
Bloodyhell, Ryanair want £80 just to take my clubs!! £177 for flights lmao!! will have to do some digging who flys into derry for cheap :D

Pretty sure its only that shower of robbing hoors that fly into Derry:angry:

Belfast International is the next best option. If none of the guys coming from that direction can lift you there is a bus called the Airporter, which picks you up right outside airport and brings you straight to Derry, where I can get you. Think its around £25 return

I went with sleazyjet when I went over to Goswick in October, it was £50 for the clubs, return.
 
Ryanair is £40 each way :o... £147 is cheapest I found and thats with only hand luggage and my clubs (Can't play much golf without em) lol

I was (I think) £139 with easyjet from Belfast, sure you can pack a whole load of stuff in a club carrier ;) ;) ;)

edit : just a thought I could drive for cheaper!! lol

Is that from Leeds/Bradford to Derry?

If so thats not bad and no you cant drive for cheaper unless you got a carfull and sharing the costs, even the ferries are a rip off these days to take a car over
 
hopefully be in for this! bar the sunday.

not sure how that will work out.?? but should be up for castlerock on fri and the round on sat :)

is this a package setup? will it not work to just play the fri and sat?
