• We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas from all at Golf Monthly. Thank you for sharing your 2025 with us!

I've pulled the trigger - Burnham & Berrow, sign me up!

Well done Sam, I got your PM, I've sorted my country membership out all but my visit to be shown around, meet the Captain and have an official start date, we'll have to sort out a meet between us and invite all these GM reprobates :smirk:
 
I actually live in Swindon too, 😂.

Still staying at the players, love the place in the summer and I'm a parkland golfer at heart. But Our season doesn't really start until end of April (we don't do the greens until after Europro Q) and for someone with aspirations of playing bigger events, that's too much of the season lost.

The price I'm paying for burnham even once a month and most weeks in the winter it will be an absolute steal!!

I'm actually in the process of buying a house just outside Swindon. Going to join Wrag Barn.
Should have a knock some time.

My brother in law has literally just joined Wrag in the past week, so if you need members to meet I can sort you out.

Definitely up for a game.

Nice one. My father in law is a member, and my brother in laws mates play there too.

Think we're moving in June if all goes to plan

I've not played Wrag so would be up for a game, I'm a member at Manor House, but giving that up at the end of the month due to work & family commitments - will be joining Broome as it's 2 minutes from my house, just to keep my handicap active.
 
It looks a great track Sam, please sign me up for a mini meet down there sometime.

At almost 7000yds off back tees it should be plenty long enough for you too. :thup:

I work for nationwide, and also live about 2mins from Broome.

Wrag IMO is ok, Swindon is awful for golf courses and it's the best of an average bunch

Definitely keen to get it sorted with Fish once he has sent everything off so will keep you all posted
 
I keep thinking about it as I'm 60 miles away (Gloucester) but just don't think I'll end up using it enough.
Playing there in June in the England golf gold medal regional final though :)
 
Love to have a game with you one day Mendie. I'm only 40 minutes further down the road, and if you fancy a game at East Devon give me a shout.
Massive fan of east Devon, was going to enter the men's open in a couple of weeks (even though the weather was awful last year and the 2nd round got cancelled) but decided to save the £40 and use it as leverage when convincing HID that burnham was a good idea 😉
