Heading to Ireland in Mayand booked in to play

Old Head of Kinsale
Tralee
Lahinch
Doonbeg
Waterville

Also looking to play Woburn Duchess, Tandridge and Close House which will then tick off all the English courses in the top 100.
 
Ironically LQ , I am looking this week to book a four ball at Woodhall Spa
( Hotchkin) Thursday May 10th. we played Norfolk last year and are doin the same this year but calling in there on our way home. Not had a look how to book it or what is the cheapest way yet.
Am booked in to play it with your day later this year but we are all putting woodhall on our ticked off list.

Send LQ a PM tash, he'll look after you.:thup:

Some list there , i've played Tralee, Lahinch and Waterville and all 3 are superb, ask the starter nicely to mark your stroke saver with all the lines for each hole as their are a lot of blind tee shots at Lahinch.

Thanks Steve, will do! :thup:
 
Crikey, lots of you guys have some serious itineraries!

I will be mostly playing my home course .. lots!

I hope to (perhaps, maybe) play either Millbrook or woburn, if I can when i visit parents this year.

Otherwise, 2018 will be getting my back back in shape and just enjoying myself on the course

Will do, we were looking to play Swaffham, sheringham, Kings Lynn, Hunstanton and Woodhall spa last year. After pricing everything up we would of had to come outta retirement to book them all so said we would split it and do Woodhall spa this year.

Cheers LB.
