Nairn Forum Meet April 2015

[patricks148]

Lets get the ball rolling.

I've got a price of £20 for Nairn and suggest April by which time we will be back on the full course.

so who interested?

For those who don't know the course.

Held the Walker cup, Curtis Cup and British Amateur championships in the past and is a GM top 100 course (32 last time)

If anyone wanst to stay up and play other courses i was thinking Moray old where im also a member so could get a good deal there also.

Hadn't we best arrange it on a national level first? Some might not want to play in it's eventual format.

Re: GM Champion of Champions Knockout Scotland

So we are going with some ridiculous, pretentious name again this year?

What's wrong with GM national strokeplay event? Does winning what is effectively a society day out make you a 'Champion'??

Whatever it is, I'm in.

Re: GM Champion of Champions Knockout Scotland

£20 for Nairn sounds like it would be rude to refuse, so date dependent, I'm in.

Re: GM Champion of Champions Knockout Scotland

8 hour round trip for me so I'm afraid I won't make this one. Good price for what looks like a good course.

I might make a North East regional given that rail services are decent and I can get work done on the train. Shave a couple hours off my journey vs Nairn as well.

Re: GM Champion of Champions Knockout Scotland

8 hour round trip for me too but I'll do an overnighter, and make a couple of days of it.

Yeah, more like it. I was just trying to make the point that a mere 8 hour journey doesn't stop a committed golfer.

Very true, 2.5 from Dundee, come off the A9 at Carrbrige and Take the Dava pass to Nairn cuts off a good half hour.

Spot on did Dornoch in about 3hrs in August ,don't mind driving to play a class course, might have a stop to stretch the back but don't mind the drive

Re: GM Champion of Champions Knockout Scotland

Could be up for this depending on dates. I can throw the wife and kids out at my folks' in Aberdeen and split the journey
