I have a voucher to play at Sunningdale which expires next March but I may take advantage this year whilst the weather is still good.

Anyone else planning to play there and fancy joining up?
 
Which course are you planning to play? I have already played the old but if you were planning to play the new then I may well be up for it.

New course green fee is £165.

Sawtooth, I will PM you some dates in September tomorrow, have a look to see what fits, once settled on a date we can see if there are any other takers.

Cheers,

Rob

The fourball I bought at the Captains charity day silent auction for £410 is looking good value.;) As it is valid until the end of next year will probably use it next summer. Shame we can't combine it with your voucher Sean, and get a mini meet going.

OK Rob but at that price I don't think there will be too many other takers.

The price drops from Nov 1st to £100 for the New course if that makes a difference to anybody, or if you happen to work for the emergency services (or the clergy - not too many clergy GM forumers!) the fee is just £60 :thup:

Rich, £410 for a fourball all year round is an absolute steal.

Yah, emergency services, not not armed forces, emailed them to ask why not! Reply wasn't helpful!

Sorry to hear that but I cant say I'm all that surprised. I called them earlier to ask if I could get a little discount on arranging a fourball and they said No. The prices are fixed and they wouldn't budge. :angry:

Played Sunningdale New today. Absolutely stunning. Best inland course I have played. Played off the whites with no one in front or behind all the way round. Real millionaires golf.

Thought you would like it Rich. So you agree it is better than the Old? To me it is is by a clear margin, despite a poor 18th - the 17th could also be improved, although this was underway I think last year, and the 16th would have benefited from tree tree clearance on the right and a slightly raised tee - other than that, wow, what a course - and 4 to 15 is the best run of consecutive holes anywhere (13 being slightly weaker) and you could extend this to 16 with minor tweaks

I agree that the New is a better test of golf but there is just that special something about the Old that makes me prefer it. Aura, charisma, charm.....I don't know what you would call it but I do know I would never turn down a game on either course :thup:
