Moors Valley Saturday 2nd April

[mikew3lx]

I have booked and paid online for a 09:04 tee time at Moors Valley in East Dorset for Saturday 2nd April. My regular golfing partner contacted me last night to say that his wife had been taken ill and was in hospital and didn't think he would be able to make it.

Is there a forum member who would be interested in joining me on Saturday morning? The cost is £25. And the weather forecast is looking good!

So silly you keep popping to a course 4 miles from my flat and I have not had a round with you yet!

I know. But I have a bit of a good deal still going at East Horton, but only when I'm playing with a friend of mine, though others can join in as normal. He's got a corporate membership thing!

 

[mikew3lx]

I'm in Alderholt and used to live in Ferndown. Perhaps we can meet up for a round soon.

I'd be there like a shot under normal circumstances..... but I can't this w/end.


It sounds like we need to organise a Dorset/Hampshire meet up !

 

[mikew3lx]

That sounds like a good idea and I would support it. Most of the events are too far away, I would like to play in one of the centenary events but the nearest is 2.5 hrs away.

Would have loved to but only just read the tread and i am taking my daughter to crane valley 9 hole course this afternoon as any of the 18 hole courses would be to big for her.

We will have to meet up for a game soon. I can do most Friday afternoons and weekends.

It would be good to do a local meet. I think Dudsbury would be a good location as they do twilight golf for £18 down from a normal £50 green fee and it is a championship course.

So how do we go about arranging a meet for local forum members? Dudsbury is a good idea. My brother-in-law is a member so maybe I can set something up.

Just book it and we will come !! Friday afternoons & Sunday afternoons are good for me. I used to be a member of Dudsbury a few years ago, It's a good summer course.

Errr wrong way round!!
Find out who wants to play and when, and then book it.
Less frustration that way

Living near Reading I'd be up for a South Central meet somewhere in Hants. There seem to be lots of courses in the Basingstoke/Winchester/Southampton area. Played a few of the courses round Basingstoke and also played Brokenhurst Manor a couple of times and absolutely loved it.

I'd be OK weekends or weekdays with a bit of notice.

I bow down to your knowledge and experience in all things especially organising golf stuff..

Must be the Dorset air, I live here and the last few weeks my swing has been utter garbage

Home (in the UK) for me is just down the road from you Del. I'd consider Ashley Wood and Stur Marshall to be the closest two courses to me.

 

[User20205]

Ashley wood is a nice track. Let us all know when you are back in the UK Whee & we can arrange something.

 

[Del]

Whee, as "The Rod" said, let us know when you are about and will can get a game going some where near to us all.
