This may seem a little early however it needs to be to secure some fantastic prices and possibly a deposit may be required to secure a great price on a hotel rate.

Firstly this trip is going to be limited to 20, possibly 24 if there are sufficient numbers and I will be giving first refusal to the 20 guys who made the effort and commitment to last years epic "day" trip. Due to this epic day trip the consensus was to make it an overnight affair. The numbers being limited is mainly due to the lack of light at this time of the year. However I do know for a fact that there are going to be at least a couple of casualties from this years trip.




GOLF

On Saturday the 26th of March we will kick off at the excellent new Machrihanish Dunes golf course. Kevin at Machrihanish Dunes has very very kindly reduced the standard winter rate from £40 to £25 for us which represents a fantastic price for such an awesome new golf course. For tea/coffee and a bacon roll on arrival it'll add another £5 onto the price. I can guarantee that at the Dunes there will be at least one 5 putt from the party! You'll see what I mean when you play it!!!! Elephants grave yard doesn't do some of the greens justice!!!

Kevin is also going to come back to me with a food price as well, if its not great we can just go to the clubhouse at Machrihanish again where the lads who came along last year will all agree that the food and price was fantastic. Machrihanish couldn't have done more for us last year.

Sunday 27th March

The Sunday will see us back at the wonderful Machrihanish Golf Club where you may have a chance to win the first prize of the day off the first tee! ;)

Probably one of the best, if not the best opening tee shot in the World!

Machrihanish should be £40 all in again for golf, tea/coffee bacon roll on arrival and a meal afterwards. I am still waiting final confirmation of this from Ken at Machrihanish however I cant see there being any issues, maybe a deep sea diver of an increase. It still represents awesome value.

I just hope that the ladies who were playing the 9 hole Pans course are not out again as AMcC obviously had the hots for one of them :D

ACCOMMODATION

I have secured a great rate of £30 per person (£40 IF YOU WANT A SINGLE ROOM)for bed and breakfast at the White Hart Hotel in Campbeltown, this is almost half price guys, I may need a deposit to secure this excellent rate, however I will let you know ASAP.

ON THE SCROUNGE!!!

Finally, we had a fantastic prize fund mainly due to the generosity of the guys who attended. If anyone feels that they can or would like to donate a prize again please do so, all 20 who attended last year got a prize, from Fabians "bag of sh1te" to a £150 putter which was donated!!!

I'll start off the 2011 prize fund with a bottle of whisky again.

Please confirm ASAP so I can take advantage of the fantastic prices.


Thecraw!

PS.

I will not be held responsible for any sore heads on the Sunday morning. I will also not be waiting for anyone to be released from the local cop shop, Fabian! :D
 
Colin, if you get to Glasgow airport or Glasgow I will arrange to pick you up and you can come in the magical bus!!!!

Don't worry either way you will get picked up and dropped off.

Craw...you is a bad man....this is FAR too tempting!!!

All I can say is that it is def. worth the trip. I am looking forward to it again after last years one and am glad its an overnighter as it was a bit of trek time wise as a day trip. Where are you potentially travelling form?

Although that leads to its own problems when it becomes a stay over as it could get real messy on the Sat. night. I dont fancy the course on Sun if Im too rough but that is 100% certain to be the case.
 
Re: Machrihanish Trip 2011 March 26th &27th

We left Dundee at 6am and got home after 12 at night so the over nighter is good for us as its 185 miles to get there.
It was a great day not that i can mind much about it but am looking forward to next year already

Cheers,
