Thought I'd give this one a bump as we're little more than a week away.

Weather looks to be improving in time for it.

Everyone still good to go?

That's come round fast! Yes I'm still good for it. We've had some rain lately but my home course is holding up really well and its next door to little Aston so if the weather stays kind it should be good.
Had a new driver, 3 wood and rescue in the bag for a week so I better pop down the range this week.
Also at our place we are allowed trolleys providing they have winter wheels. However the belfry is on carry only. It may be worth a call if you currently have a trolley setup in case its carry only at LA.
See you next week gents

Really looking forward to it, fingers crossed for better weather.

Playing there tomorrow and just checked,no restrictions regards electric trollies 😃

 

[Fish]

Yes this is still all systems go, looking forward to it also, right on my doorstep but never had the opportunity to play it before, and especially so cheaply 😎

Just a heads up, we have had tee times put back till 10.16 and first 8 groups are being shotgunned off because of the frost tomorrow. cant fault Tony and Little Aston for being so accommodating to make sure we have a fantastic day

Sounds good, hope you have a great day and look forward to your report!

 

[Bigfoot]

Have a good day tomorrow. Hopefully it is perfect next week too.

Arrived at 10.10 in plenty of time for our 11.16 tee time but times had been put back by at least 30 mins due to the heavy frost and then it was decided to do a shotgun at 12.15 to ensure we could play on full greens and all get finished in time. They don't have temp greens as such but a flag in a log you play to on the fairway just short of the green and you hole out by hitting the log.

Alas downside was that our group was off the 12th which is the furthest tee , so used the walk for a nice warm up

Fantastic course and well worth a visit if you can, tees; fairways and bunkers in good condition .However greens were a bit bumpy which lead to some frustration , well that's our excuse

Can't think of a bad hole and loved the 17th, bit wider in places than I was expecting but sure with trees in full leaf it is a lot tighter.
Turned out Metal Mickie from here was also there and had a good long chat, hopefully he's recovered from playing with out club captain who can be a bit erratic off the tee
All in all a great day and many thanks to LA and Tony for organising .

Thanks for the write up, sounds good and for the price we're paying next week I can live with a bit of bumpiness on the greens, probably help my putting in any case.

It's not so much the walk out as the walk back after finishing that I don't like if on a shotgun from a remote corner of the course.

Yep I'm there next week too 😃

Can I have a reserve in place for this please, I am full of cold right now and feeling quite weak, I'm not saying I'm 100% out at this time but I will make a decision by lunchtime tomorrow, possibly earlier if someone steps forward and needs more time to arrange and commit!
