Scottish Open

So the first week and the 22nd of June are out. Anyother dates not suiting anyone else whos interested. Prob best to sort a date first then pick a venue????

May be a good idea to keep location central for west and east for the first meet and then take it from there for the returns!!

Any members in central Scotland?
 
Centrally , Stirling, Muckhart, Tulliallan are all just of the motorways or push the boat out and play Kingsbarns or Gleneagles thru the SGU ;) ;)
 
Muckhart aint a bad shout.

I know your not keen Steve however just noticed Murrayshall are doing a round and a sunday roast diner for £30 pp.

Auchterarder? Crieff? Letham Grange? Downfield? Kingussie? Newtonmore?

Dunkeld and Birnam are doing a 4 ball for £90 including coffee and muffin on arrival and a main meal after, £22.50 each aint bad.

Dunblane?

Someone make a decision!
 
Just checking some distances, driving times on the courses mentioned by craw.

As Im on the west coast and probally the longest drive here are some deatils and my ideas....

What do you think???

Muckhart 1hr 21 mins 70 odd miles

Auchterarder 1hr 20 70 miles ish

Muarryshall 1.45 hr 96miles

Dunkeld 1.49hr 107miles

Creiff 1.30 80miles

Im happy for any of these
Didnt check them all.

Stevek you started thread you pick a venue.... no pressure :D

After 21 point today I should maybe give it a miss :(
 
Think Murckhart is the most central for most people its £30 a round i played last year in there open and it was the best conditioned course i'd played all year thats my choice hope everyone agrees . Thats a good deal at Murrayshall (thecraw )i'm fit and i came of there shattered it has to many stupid holes a par 5 dogleg where you can only hit a 7 iron to the corner from the tee and big trees in the middle of the fairways not the greatest. Downfield is good its 5 mins from my house i play it a lot as my mate plays there its £55 a round tho. Now all we need is a suitable date and numbers.
 
Nothing cynical farneyman its just my days of , all my holidays are booked out for the year and have non spare , i work on a 4 shift rota ,i can make friday 22nd May if thats ok.
 
Thats good farneyman cheers ,any other takers for the 15th of June or anybody got any other dates in mind ? so we can get booked
 
June would be good for me, if you want to play at Kingussie,Newtonmore or even somewhere up the east coast so that Birdieman and others dont have so far to travel, I can arrange return rail tickets from Glasgow and Edinburgh for £5 each to anywhere in Scotland for upto 12 people.
 
Two nice courses if its easier for you guys to travel by train then that could be a good idea.Only problem with the train is they have a swally carriage :D :D :D
 
Kingussie is beautiful and thats one hell of a great gesture Toad, thanks very much, Newtonmore is also a good track. You have been very quite lately Toad.

(also means I can have a couple of beers and chill out on the way home!)

Toad that would be a great idea, anyone else fancy that option, if so my preferred choice is Kingussie but happy to go with the flow. Mon 15th June is GO GO GO for me also.
