That would be handy, where did you find that? It will save me leaving breadcrumbs back to my group when I go looking for my ball.

Found it while browsing. Its useful as you can search any golf club as it uses google earth. Its not my plots for each hole though as i dont hit it as far
. Click on 2d or 3d and the course appears. Its quite self explanitory and you can move tee points etc http://www.provisualizer.com/courses/burnhamandberrow.php

Some very good holes on the channel course, well worth playing!
Bit quiet here so a cheeky bump is in order.
Is everything still as per the tee times above as that was before the cut-off date?
Hope the weather holds, I've got a chalet for 3 days with HID and the dog in tow :smirk:

Mate all is hunky dory.
Have played the channel course twice lately and been absolutely nowhere near my handicap,
so im sure the main course is going to be very,very tough.
All same tee-times.
Just a thought for everyone.
Does everyone think playing a medal round is a good idea,maybe stableford would be a better format.
Ive heard there are a few blind shots,the course is very hard,so we could be playing a lot
of provisional balls which is going to slow play down considerably,also being a weekend we wont
be alone.
Obviously I will go with the majority-any thoughts
We have to play to the overall competition format, I hear what your saying but we can't alter the format from one qualifier to another.

I thought the organiser of each event could pick what format as if it's windy and wet I can see 12 NRs due to people shotting in the hundreds and 5hour rounds I've played Burnham in calm condition and it's hard also played in the wind and only just managed to stay in the 90s and like pokerjoke says we will not be alone out there. I'm for stableford on the day

Yes we have discussed this.
We have to be sensible,5hr rounds,people having to go back to the tee etc.
Of course we have the option of deciding on the day,depending on circumstances,weather,amount
of footfall behind.
Just nice to get some feedback on what people think.

I was speaking tp a member of burnham the other day and he said the medal tees were for members only if its not a club comp and visitors play from the tees of the day namely yellows? As for the comp im happy to go with the flow. Its going to be difficult and they way im striking a ball a bit of a slog anyway so if it is stableford i wont complain in the slightest :thup:

I believe championship tees are 6900 yards,yellows are 6400 yards,so still a bloody long tough
course.if the winds blowing,carnage.

I don't mind either. Personally I prefer medal but I also can't stand slow play and long rounds!

Burnham is one of the hardest golf courses you will ever play, and the yellow tees will be plenty long enough in February. It is a proper out and back links course and if the wind blows it will be nails. The first has the narrowest fairway I have ever seen, flanked on either side by large dunes. One hell of a track though. There will be some big scores if it is s medal.

I am happy to play medal if that is the common consensus, but as a high handicap and not very good golfer, I can see the benefits of stableford.

Perhaps see what the days like and vote on the day. I normally prefer medal but no one will enjoy walking back to the tee in wet windy condition just to put a 10 on there card. If you can't score pick up and move on. There are a few blind holes that you can easily lose a ball on even when you hit a good shot.

Sorry guys to mess you around but it will definitely be MEDAL whatever the conditions.
