Scottish Forum Grand Outing September 3rd

Thats only your opinion. You clearly have an agenda with Dunbar being a former employee. I have not played either so cant comment however I know plenty of people who rave about Crail. I will make up my own mind when I play them.

Crawford,

It's your ball & you can make the call on which deal you think will be best, like you said you ain't going to please everyone but I am sure no matter what course you choose it will be a good day and you will get a full house.

I was, but my opinion is based only on having played all the courses before on many an occasion.

Each to their own though as I said.;)

Its not "my ball" Sam, I've just set the wheels in motion.

Ladybank have still to get back to me about the 10th as the 3rd was their Seniors Open, do you qualify for that??

:whistle:
 
Guys, it seems that there are two very definite schools of thought on this one. I'd happily play either course, but don't have the time on a Monday to play 36 holes. Are there enough bodies to support events on the same date at both venues?

Okay, I put in the 3rd as that was the first date that came up on the subject. I then asked about the 10th because that’s more popular by far in the pole. http://forums.golf-monthly.co.uk/showthread.php?36812-Scottish-Forum-Grand-Meet
I can ask again for the 17th, nothing in the club diary, and increased numbers, that’s not a problem if you want to consider Dunbar.

I know one thing, you wont be disappointed with the course and I've got a deal with soup and sandwiches on arrival, a round of golf then high tea. Can’t do any more than that. This has come about because I have a members day that entitles me to bring on a group of players once a year. Ealry season Dunbar has more going on.

I’m personally not bothered what you want to do. One thing for sure I cant do a two rounder these days, too much back trouble.

They also know it's the GM forum.

Regardless of the choice Tommo, thanks for the effort in getting a deal

Must it be in September though?
 
Travel wise, well some people will have to travel regardless of location. DCB, I do however note your yet to venture West!

Crawford, travelled the M8 for almost 20 years working in EK or Glasgow. Play regularly at the Troon Muni setup as I've got family down there ;)

Travelling West isn't a problem :)

Crawford, I contacted you about the possibilities of Dunbar when the venue was still up in the air and you were waiting on a few replies. The dates in September are the dates everyone has been talking about; I’m unaware of some other time outside what’s been mentioned….until now.

As for the numbers, going by the DATE pole we’ve only got 20 people who have cast a vote on the date, that being the 10th Sep as most popular. That’s why I’ve asked for 24 and you did say 20 plus.

As I said when I first contacted you, I don’t want to steal your thunder, it’s your gig. However, I can’t see anyone ever getting a deal at a quality open qualifying venue like Dunbar ever again. £25 would only get you 6 holes, never mind the soup n sandwiches and high tea., high tea alone is £12. I’m genuinely surprised I’ve got this deal, but there are reasons and Dunbar has been very kind to me in this instance. If you take everything into consideration there is a genuine saving of £55 per head.

I’m quite happy to go along with your choices, without Dunbar, I genuinely don’t have a problem as I play Dunbar all the time.

I can go back again and ask for a price for 28 or 32….it’s up to you.

Except with your team :whistle:

Can I add my name to the list. Dunbar, Crail, Glasgow Gailes, Dundonald, ladaybank....I'll go anywhere
 
Im happy with either deal but if it came to a vote I would plump for Dunbar

Open qualifiying course at that price with grub!!

Sounds like a no brainer to be honest....
 
Right Dunbar can do 3rd the 10th and the 17th of September.

Prices

20 to 24 guys @ £25 each.

28 players @ £33 each.

32 players @ £38.50 each.

That’s all in with food as I’ve explained above.

That, as they say, is my final offer.
 
Add my name as well to the list. Will go with the flow, not too fussed either way in terms of venue or date, just looking forward to another good day out.

Well done Tommo, great offer also.
 
Argue amongst yourselves, I'm out till a venue is sorted. I'm not really interested in travelling that far for 18 holes.

Incase anyone is interested Ladybank have also got back with a price.
