Not every one,well not for a big hitter like you mate
It's a great course and has a good mix of holes.
Quite a few doglegs from what I can remember.
Get the weather and we'll have a great day out.

Not really as there is good bunkering all round, take them on with the big dog and you can be rewarded with a shorter shot, or if u hit a 3i/3w then you obviously leave a longer hit to the greens. Try and play off the whites as its a much better course than off the yellows.
Gregs right about the doglegs too. There are quite a few that you can lay up too or take on the corner. My advice....lay up as your toast if you dont make the carrys !!

Whats the yardage?

6882. Doesn't say whether that's off the whites or not though, probably is. But for me, in terms of walking, it'll probably be 7882 
You got any of ya cards in yet Dave?

I wasnt asked for mine, so you should be ok.
Its got quite corporate now the hotel is on site and as a result they are more lax on that sort of thing.

They can really stretch it. Try and get on the whites if you can as its a much better course and brings a lot more thinking into the round. Some of the yellows looked to take all the bunkering totally out of play .

Any idea what time we're teeing off? Or meeting? Do I need to bring anything other than the obvious clubs and "A" game?

Bring your putting A-game Dave, I think mine is around the 'U'mark if Saturday was anything to go by. I think we are out at 1:50pm. It's still down as Birchy Pete, does it need to be changed to Dave's name if its a qualifier???

You'll have this to keep you entertained if you felt the need to loosen up after a spell sat behind the wheel...
