No visitors at Wentworth any more. Members and guests only......
Definitely iconic but way over priced. Sunningdale, Walton Heath and the others mentioned by others far better propositions

£360?!? Thats criminal. Ok it may be 'iconic' but its a golf course, a big bit of grass you hit a ball round. Mental.

Overpriced Homer?
Just depends on what you're prepared to pay, very much a personal opinion, but some won't pay more than £50 for a round and for others ...... whatever it costs!

It would have been £3 but I missed a few putts! :whoo:
OK imo it's definitely over priced and the other courses are actually better value and more enjoyable (again imo). I would definitely think about paying that price for any of the top 10 in the top 100 but not for one rated 42nd in the GM top 100. Iconic maybe. Worth cost. No

I believe Visitors are allowed Monday-Friday.
That's certainly what the Website says - and doesn't restrict it to East or South/Edinburgh.
It would seem that the new owners are making some changes.

I like the sound of that
and you wouldn't be wrong, i wouldn't be happy about it.....if it were my money!
However, Ive got to visit 3 advertising agencies and they usually like to butter me up
Thats the way I played it- very enjoyable but I have to say I was quite deflated by the course after watching it for years on TV, I would have been gutted to have spent half the cost of a new set on 1 round of golf.

Yep I'd agree with this, played all these courses and the most enjoyable day was Sunningdale by a country mile.

Paddy, do you have anything to do with the data center at your work?? Reason i ask, I know a guy who runs a datacenter moving business and they have wentworth corp membership... he is a good egg too...

My vote goes to Sunningdale over Wentworth, there is an ambience at Sunningdale that Wentworth no longer has. The greens and course condition here is excellent all year round wether you play the Old or New, I prefer the Old as its a little less testing and the `sausage sandwiches` at the Hut are a must (see if you can beat Dareen Clarkes record!), I will be going to watch the Seniors Open there in July, but hope to play before or just after.

Or maybe our friends at TM could sort a forum deal out?

Totally agree. All are a far better day out and represent good value for money. I would add Hankley as a superior destination too.
Wentworth West was a major disappointment for me and the cost is ludicrous. It is like a hilly version of the Belfry Brabazon. Overrated and the pillock quotient is very high as well.

£360, you can get membership for a year for that money on a quality golf course in some places

The website mentions £110 for groups of at least 12 provided they spend £45 each on food. Until the end of March I think it was.
It doesn't say if there are any more provisos, but I could be tempted at £155 if we could get enough interest.
