- Start date
Re: Sunningdale...
Still undecided. Got a few more comps pre-booked to take me to the end of July plus St Pierre and then we'll see. However even if I do quit I'd come out of hibernation to play thos courses

They certainly look like 2 courses worth coming out of hibernation for mate - but would playing with smiffy be worth it?

Re: Sunningdale...
Definitely. We always have a good laugh when we play and are usually about the same standard. Always enjoy playing with Smiffy and so was pleased with my Blackmoor draw. Was a great day out

I'm interested in this...But I was also planning a late march trek up to Turnberry for a night as an early birthday bash. Too many golf courses, not enough money!

Re: Sunningdale...
If we finailise dates and cost for this I could very well be interested if there is room.
Would be willing to part with a good chunk of cash for a lovely day out up there.

Re: Sunningdale...
I have played both the Old and the New quite a few times. Both are absolutely brilliant and I agree with the comment that they when played together, represent the best day out in UK golf.
Stunning courses and it feels like a proper golf club with a terrific welcome for visitors.
I prefer the Old course but there is nothing between them - both amazing. So in answer to the question, definitely wait and play both. No doubt about it.

Re: Sunningdale...
Rob,
I would be happy to join you for the day - so if you need another count me in. £155 for the day is a great price and I am sure both courses will be in very good nick at that time of year.
Last time I played it - was on the new course and it destroyed me. I would love to have another crack!!!

Re: Sunningdale...
Looks like we've got a "mini-meet" then.
2x4 balls
I'll give them a call and see what I can sort out.
We are talking about Thursday 29th March next year

Re: Sunningdale...
I have just finished arranging a game at the New course in September at Sunningdale. David is the man you need to speak to. Some days the New course is a 4's and some it's a 2's as it appears to alternate, depending whats on the Old course

Sounds like you've got plenty of people to play with Rob. I would prefer to play the courses when its a little warmer and the days longer so for those reasons i'm out. Have a good day all those who play.

Re: Sunningdale...
Right.
I have heard back from David Bowles at Sunningdale, and he has kindly booked me two tee times for both morning and afternoon.
Morning will be on the New Course and will be from 8.36am.
Afternoon will be on the Old Course and will be from 1.48.
This gives us a good 4 hours for the morning round and just over an hour for lunch.
Clocks will have gone back by the 29th March so it won't be getting dark until nearly 7.30 so we'll have plenty of daylight.
He doens't require a deposit at the moment, all he needs if the full names of all players together with their handicaps.
Please note that there is a maximum handicap limit of 18.
All those that would like to take part, please post on here and I will email David back as soon as I get the 8.
Cost will be £155.00 for the day, that does not include food by the way.
Places will obviously go to the people who posted above once they have confirmed, I will also have a reserve list in case anyone bombs out nearer the time.

Stick me down please, Rob...Not sure where I'm going to find the holiday from work or the £155 from but my Christmas present may have just been sorted.
This opportunity is too good to miss out on!

Well I've heard the fairways are quite wide Si, so there should be.
If you want in, you're in (I think)

If you are serious Homer, I'd ease off on the old qualifiers between now and March mate.
Don't forget there's an 18 handicap limit
