Trump int'l / Carnoustie, April/May 2016

[Liverbirdie]

You're not wrong Steve, plus one of the hardest finishing 3 holes in golf. (2 holes for women - 16 is an easy par 4 for us!)

I think you have to include the 15th also Kaz, to say the last four are. Is 15 called "Spectacles", long,long and devilish bunkers that you have to slot it between.

Pretty sure 14 is spectacles Pete, shares a double green with the 4th I think.

Just booked our accommodation for Aberdeen - cracking place and price.

Most of the central hotels dont have good parking options, or are expensive. We've got a 2 bedroomed executive suite for £35 pppn, and it is within 5 minutes walk of the main drag in Aberdeen (union street).

If you can get 3/4/5 people to share the advanced rate is as little as £35/39/36 each. Loads of room, a proper living room, free parking and breakfast included.

Miles better than a premier inn, if you havent paid for it yet.:thup:

Oh no... we saw you 'Sitting room sofa softies' last year...too comfortable to leave :whoo: :rofl:

Nice on, I'm in the same chain but in a 2 bed executive suite at the Whitehall version. More than happy to pay a few extra quid to be in the city centre. Although I may not say that when I see the traffic.

Spectacles is 14, Pete. Par 5 for us ( I birdied it this year). Not sure the par for you guys, would be very challenging as a 4. 15 is also a difficult par 4.

I hear it's a cross between the architectural splendour of Venice, the excitement of Shanghai, the ultra modern neon lit sky scrapers of Tokyo and the vibrancy of London. I can't wait.

Ah, I see - I thought it was the par 4 (5 for you) just before the par 3(4 for you), and you don't hit it like a girl!

We looked at that one first, but the decor wasn't to our taste.

I think their both around the same distance from Union street, iirc. they all look decent opttions though, and better parking than right in the city centre.

Karen i didn't know it was a Par 4 for the women ,an easy birdie or eagle for you then :thup:. Whats your thoughts on that tho should it be the same as the men ?

 

[bluewolf]

Hey Scott.. £150 just sent over.. Description - NW KOK-BLUEWOLF.. Which is quite fitting I suppose.. Let me know if I owe anything else mate...

I think it should be a par 3, it's never a 4. I hit a 5 wood through the back so it's not stupidly long, might be different into the wind, I suppose! Mind you, it was a tough up and down where the pin was tucked that day - I doubted I could keep it on the green if I played for the hole with my second and, sure enough, I didn't!

The only thing I'd say is that it maybe balances out a bit as 17 is an incredibly difficult par 4 for us. Very few can carry the burn but anything other than a stupidly aggressive lay up leaves the green out of range.

Will see what they say on tees but i hope they allow us to play from which tees we want etc.

Will have to let people choose though if thats the case as some wont be able to get it in play from the back.
