Scottish Open

Its a 2hr 20 minute journey from Queen Street in Glw! Leave at 0706hrs be at the golf course for 1000hrs, coffee bacon roll, round of golf, meal, couple of beers putting competition and train home at 1752hrs back in glw for 2015hrs.

Cant see whats wrong with that to be honest? Yes its an early start however it is a day away. Live dangerously.
 
Golf is cheaper at Newtonmore, travel is cheaper courtesy of Toad, more relaxed travel, means that you can have a couple of beers, no brainer in my opinion, however I will go with the flow, think it should go to a vote.
 
Have just checked out train times to Newtonmore from Edinburgh and I couldn't be there until 13.48, having taken 4 hours 11 minutes to get there, with 2 changes! :eek:

Muckhart gets my vote, but if Newtonmore is decided upon by the majority, I'm happy to politely withdraw.
:o
 
At that time of the year coupled with other committments, sadly Rosemount is too rich for my blood!

Minimum of £70 a round and if you add in tea and a meal it jums to either £75 or £80 which tbh is a good deal as, as Madandra says its a cracking course, however not in my price range, I already have other things planned.
 
What to do lads is get 2 for 1 tickets if you are going to Muckhart....we went there last april and played 27 holes for about £17 I think it was and I really really enjoyed it.
 
Afternoon guys, can whoever is going please let me no so we can get things sorted. If you want i have a free four ball for Downfield which we can use and just split the costs between us ,i no its in Dundee and i dont have to travel, i've no qualms about travelling its just a thought if you guys want we can go there or if its Muckhart then its not a problem i'll sort it out.
 
Steve,

I'm definitely up for this and my vote goes to Muckhart, or indeed anywhere else fairly central and not ridiculously expensive! ;)
 
Derek

I'm the same as you , Muckhart fine by me i'dont mind travelling ,we'll wait and see what everyone else choice is hopefully by tonight we can get things finalised.
 
Muckhart for me.

I agree that for the first meet a bit less travel would be better for me.
Maybe next years Scottih open could be an Island venue with an overnighter!!!

Hope thats ok for others.
 
Afternoon guys have just heard from Murkhart with the prices
Coffee and bacon roll £2.50
Meal after round £8.50
18 holes £10 per person they've knocked £20 of

Total cost £21.50 :) :)
Can you let me no of what times are suitable foe everyone and i'll sort it out

Steve
 
That is a great deal! Mmmmmm at that price I may need to re-schedule!
You will have a great day at a nice track and for that price you canny fail....and I thought we got a great deal at £18 or 27 but we had to pay for bait on top!It was still fantastic value though!
 
Steve, that is a superb price! Well done mate! :cool:

I'd prefer a 10.30/11am or thereabouts start time, but will go with the majority vote.

Do Muckhart require a deposit from us?
 
Any ideas how to break it to the wife.....

"Hi darling I'm off to a big field in the middle of nowhere to walk around with some strange men Ive met on the internet"

Looking forward to it.
