I have booked for 25 players, but we can increase/decrease this number, as long as we have a minimum of 15 players.

Looks like we will have a decent turnout.

Put me down please Rich, its my local course......unfortunately Im not a member yet.

With winter rates isnt it a extra tenner for a whole day ticket?

I played there last year it was raining and windy (my trolley got blown over) but I still enjoyed the course and it was practically empty!

I have spoken to West Hill Golf Club, and they will allow us to have a Society day on Friday 22nd February 2013. Normally their Society days are Monday to Thursday.

The deal is £50, bacon rolls and coffee, 18 holes of golf and 2 course luncheon. Alternatively for an extra £5 we can have have a full English breakfast to start with. Breakfast from 8.30 with a 9.30-10.00 tee off time.

West Hill is a superb course, one of my favourites, and is in Brookwood, near Woking Surrey. The website is www.westhillgc.co.uk It is ranked in the Golf Monthly top 100 UK courses, although the ranking should be a lot higher !!

I realise February can be a dodgy month for golf, but West Hill has great drainage being a heathland course, and I have been advised they have only had temporary greens once this winter so far. Assuming reasonable weather it should be a great days golf at a proper friendly members club, and something to look forward to over the winter.

I need a minimum number of 15 to book the Society rate, and payment would not be until the new year. I will need to confirm the booking asap.

If you would like to play please put your name down on this thread. No maximum number so everyone that wants to play should get a game. Guests welcome. Any queries please ask.

I will put you on the list Hooker. Let me know when you join and I will scrounge a round at guest rates !!!

West Hill do charge a green fee of £50 for a round and £60 for the day in winter. We are paying the Society rate of £55 for a round, but we also get a full English breakfast and two course lunch. I doubt we would get many extra holes in bearing in mind it still gets dark early in February, and we will be teeing off until at least 10.00.

 

[JCW]

Me too , i am off that day and new on here and time to get to know everyone local , i travel up from Bournemouth

I will put the two of you on the list.

I did answer the query regarding a day ticket, but it is with the mods for approval.

Looks like we may have to increase the booking.

 

[Swinger]

Yes please mate!!

 

[richart]

Yes please mate!!

I had you pencilled in Steve.

 

[vkurup]

Rich... put me on...
Played WH 2 years ago - was my first time on a proper course. Can never forget the first time - can I. I am playing my corporate day there in July, so wud be good to get out there again before that. BTW, do they have a HC restriction?

Played Worplesdon and must agree, I think it might have a slight edge on WH. Never played Woking, but would love to.

PS: Finally a GM forum game in my area.. need more..

I'm hoping I can make this too, one of my favourite courses. Put me down as a possible for now please.

Will do. No handicap restriction, in fact you do not need a certificate, but you need to be a 'competent' golfer.:mmm:

Rich

I was reticent to go down as a probable when you were looking to get sufficient interest to book - but now you have gone through that barrier.........

Should know definitively in 2 weeks.

I will put you down as a possible for the time being Duncan.

Great to see so much interest to play such a superb course.

Well that rules me out then

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]
