Royal Birkdale 2017 - GM Forum Trip

I know its a way off but I could potentially host at my place if enough people fancied it.

Vicars cross golf club in Chester

Not exactly next door to birkdale but not too far out for people travelling to the area.

Keep it in mind folks, if need be I'll organise something with the club.
 
Not far from Blackpool either :whoo:
I'm on the Fylde coast in Lytham (directly across the water from Southport, 45 mins drive maybe).

Happy to host anyone at my place if they're looking for a game around the time. I'll be going to one day of the Open, probably Friday, and will be getting the train from Preston.

Spoiled for choice re good courses up this neck of the woods, links, parkland, heathland, moorland etc. Whatever your preference there is something to suit :thup:
 
Sounds good to me. I normally make a week of it so will look to find a base somewhere near a Train Station where I can dump my car for the days I'm at The Open
I will probably be at the golf Thursday & Friday.

I will be looking to have a week of golfing between watching and playing so I'm sure we can set something up if there's plenty coming over.

There's loads of options of places to stay nearby for those travelling.

Might be worth setting up a meet for one of the days that week :D
 
Will be aiming to go on the Friday for sure.

Not exactly near but could host some @ Manchester GC around the time if you're travelling that way.

Would also love to play it this year. If anyone's interested PM me.

Manchester or Birkdale Huds? :confused:
 
Louise and I have already discussed coming up for the Open next year :D
 
I'll be having a few days at the Open next year. Will probably be bringing the boy with me as well. If his handicap keeps dropping then he'll be beating my by then anyway.
 
Couldn't agree more Birchy. The Champions Club was fantastic at Troon, but I'm not sure I'd spend £345 on it. That's a lot of food & Stella! :cheers:
Some nice packages apart from that Worsley park one. Prices a bit bulky though :D

For those looking at going Im sure you could do similar for a lot cheaper if you fell off your chair at the price like I did :thup:
 
I live a stones throw away from Royal Birkdale. Am relatively new to the forums in regards to posting but would be good to meet up with a few like minded (hopefully mental golfers) around the area next year.
