Official Thread: William HUnt Trilby Tour 2012

[sawtooth]

OMG what a fiasco, my web server at home could handle more requests than WH.com!

After about 20 mins I managed to get in and book Caversham Heath. TBH from the list its the most local to me and I've played it a few times so it had to be this more than any other. I knew about Foxhills before it was posted, a great choice for someone but it will be very unforgiving for errant tee shots. Just the sort of shot I make when the pressure builds.

I echo comments made about Scotland and Ireland. In future they really ought to make the position clear regarding venue location.

I will wait a while to order clothes to see what else can be added to the catalogue. Not that risky because if all else fails I'll wear what I did last year.

If this thread is anything to go by then many reserves will stand a chance to get in. It's unfortunate for those who have to turn the opportunity down due to venue distance.

Why not let those in Ireland and Scotland know in advance. Would have helped soften the blow. Instead people had to log in and get the shock of not seeing their region on the list

I couldn't agree with you more, thats what I meant about them making the position clear in future, from the get go.

Its unacceptable and it has to be the last time that they organise it this way.

At least you'll get your money back though. Mine would appear to be lost now. At least someone else will get a chance to be right royally ripped off...

 

[lofty1019]

Think i might have to do the reserve list plus!! Looks a great event!

 

[kieran59]

Played last 2 years, great time and found the TT people excellent company throughout the day & night, but what a shambles this year. No venue for us in Ireland, none in Scotland either, I would have travelled to Scotland to play but will be taking my deposit back and use the £250 for a trip, with my wife, to a quality course & hotel in Ireland, and I'll have change after a 2 night trip.

PR disaster for TT.

Well thats good news. Just think of the shiny you'll be able to buy with the money youve saved..Im in the middle of using the £200 to book a weekend away with the Missus. Somewhere nice, like Formby golf club, or the Belfry. Somewhere'll she'll really enjoy..

I am in at the buckingshire 3 years in a row for me. I live in Taunton Somerset so abit of a trek but I don't care. Haven't ordered clothes yet.

 

[Region3]

I was torn between Bucks and Foxhills, purely because last year's scores at Foxhills weren't great and I'd back myself to be low 30's even on a difficult course. Went for Bucks in the end though after looking at the layout and holes.

For all you guys who want to take part and play at a scottish venue, ill sort something out.

If you all pay me £250 i'll pop to Primark and get some polo shirts and troos and get the local bakers and butchers to lend me some hats.

it will then be shown on OHBC live.

Oooh, count me in... What could possibly go wrong.... Please make it as far North as possible, just to make sure that I have at least 12 hours travel....

Durness it is then, still mainland UK as well.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Decided to wait and see what happens as I'm on the waiting list. If I get an invite to join in great, if not I'll think about it for next year. Caversham is my ideal course and I can't see that getting overly booked up while the prestigious ones still have places

Perfect.. Please accept my non refundable deposit before telling me the date. I wouldn't want to inconvenience you by asking for all the information prior to paying...

 

[spongebob]

KP Club is my only choice really - on holiday for the N.East day .
Forget it ...can play 3 full days at Ganton for what this things costing .

Can't believe that they're giving last years clothes away ....disgusting ( £500 worth of gear , my arse !)

 

[chris661]

What a load of dung. Pay a non refundable deposit in the hope that there is a qualifier in your country then get over stock clothes from last year.

Mr William Hunt you can piss right off.

 

[Jaymosafehands]

I've been looking at the clobber, and whilst some of the tops are last years style, hey, it's the Trilby Tour style! Virtually all the trousers are new styles.

The prices are half price because they want people to buy them, it's the same as what they did last year, but they waited a couple of weeks to drop the prices.

It's not the TT's fault courses won't pay the money to host the event. I know KP do a pre event for the corporates which brings in the money and maybe other courses aren't as forward thinking?

Yeah, the cock up with the website today wasn't great (it was a joke, and I don't even have to enter!) but the lad in our office was on and sorted within an hour.

I'm not defending them for everything, but hopefully it gives a bit of balance.

Good luck to those that play, you WILL love the experience, even if your swing goes on the day!!
