Official Thread: William HUnt Trilby Tour 2012

[HomerJSimpson]

I am still waiting for Homer to suggest a venue and date.

Not an option at the moment with snow on the ground and freeze your nuts off weather. I know Smiffy doesn't like the cold at his age so we're get Woburn out the way, let the weather warm up and get it on from there

Chose my clothing....thought I'd give the "brave pink" a miss this year...especially as William said he could see my boxers through the material just as I was about to hit my tee shot in front of 2 million Sky viewers!! ne:


........gone for something less garish....and when I say less, I know my less is some peoples more ...........

Here's an artists impression....... :mmm:

Nice touch Rick!

I went for a Navy Polo and the Navy Tartan Trouser

Boring grey troos but a pink shirt

I take it 'matching' and 'co-ordinated' are not words you understand Rick ? Do like the white shoes though.

I went for the same top but with plain-ish Navy trousers. Very safe but I hope to use them again somehere else without being laughed at

 

[danbaylis]

Woohoo I'm in! Old Thorns was full so I'm playing Trevose! Blumming long drive from Poole though!

Before someone mentions my oversight, they played the inaugural WH pro event there in 2007, so it looks like the TT is coming home!

I picked my threads last night:

Seriously looking forward to it! Counting down the days, need to sort out a hotel now as leaving at 3am does not appeal!

 

[Scazza]

Well all I can do now is wait for the big day!

Paid up, threads ordered, hotel booked and today I booked my practice round at the bucks.

Managed to get my Practice Round for Monday 23rd July, which is the day before the event! Didnt think I'd be able to do it, but thought I'd ask and they were like 'of course you can!' so saves having to make two trips now and it will give me the best possible outlook of how the course will be playing on the day of the event!

I rang up to ask about a practice round and they said I couldn't book it until the tee times were sent out and I was definitely on it.

.....no...we have more taste......

I phoned them up a couple days after getting my confirmation and was fed exactly the same story mate! Was told to phone back nearer the time or when the tee times were issued.

But today, I went on the WHTT website and rang the number on ther Bucks page, got through to Reception and I said that I was looking at booking a practice round for the TT. The lady asked me what date I wanted to play, I said ideally the day before and she said that she was fully booked for that day, but she would put me through to the Pro Shop as they may be able to get me out on the course that day. So I went through to the Pro Shop and asked the bloke who's first response was "Your ringing up a bit early aren't you?!" so I explained that I was about a 3 hour drive away and wanted to save fuel so was looking at playing the day before, he said I'll have a look, next thing I know he is asking me how many are playing, if it's just me and my caddie and he issues me with a time! He said they haven't been given the price yet, but last year it was £45 and he took my mobile number down and said he would ring me with the prices once they had been confirmed!

Happy as Larry! So roll on the 23rd of July! The adventure begins!

Is there any advantage booking the practice round through TT? Is it discounted or does it mean that you can play as a member when you may not otherwise be allowed on?

You can only book a PR for a couple of the venues through TT. I had to book mine at The Buckinghamshire direct with them as that's what the instructions said on the TT website. I believe that the courses that have the option to do it through the TT site is at the discounted price.

 

[danbaylis]

I've booked my PR directly, they knocked £13 off the green fee.
