Woburn - CANCELLED

[Hooper]

Either Wednesday for me. Thanks FT for all your hard work.

 

[Wildrover]

That's a very busy time for me so I'm afraid I'm out.

I appreciate all the work you must have done FT having organised a golf day myself a few years ago, however I would expect to receive a refund at the earliest oppurtunity from Woburn, although I agree they have been fair in offering the new dates.

 

[full_throttle]

I have had a few texts and have a few others interested, so dispite a few unable to make the new dates I'm sure there will be enough interest and space for a great day.

Thanks for your kind words

 

[Blue in Munich]

Could you consider me for a reserve slot please if it ends up being in October? Thanks.

 

[Captainron]

Gutted that this is off. I cannot commit to either of the proposed dates due to some big changes at work o I am afraid I am out. You have my details from the Notts game for the refund. Real shame as I liked the whole setup there.

 

[Whereditgo]

A real shame after all the hard work by Rob and anticipation of looking forward to playing 2 great courses in a day. Have to admit that with the weather I wasn't so much looking forward to the alarm going off at 4:00 a.m.

Very much doubt I will be able to make the proposed new dates I am already commited to a week away golfing at the end of September.

Can potentially do any of the dates suggested in September or October - Fridays would be better to start the weekend on a high but will go with the majority.

 

[vkurup]

Comfortable with both.. just pick a date... I will try and get into this one..

 

[Smiffy]

Really, really sorry to hear that this has been cancelled FT. I know that you threw everything into organising it, and it's a right bummer that it's had to be postponed.

 

[bluewolf]

If the day picked is one of the September options then I may be able to fill a spot, should one arise. Would be grateful if you could put me on the reserve list FT. I'll double check my diary when I get back to Blighty. Cheers mate.

 

[AmandaJR]

Such a shame and pain in the butt although sounds like Woburn are being very fair.

We decided not to go for this as sandwiched between The Belfry and St Andrews but would be interested in any of the September dates if you're running a reserve list.

Good luck...

Unlucky guys, a shame that the weather scuppered your plans. Fortunate for me since I had to pull out so I could go on a stag do. I would be interested in going on a reserve list for any of the dates. At least I have a still have a few days of inebriation to attend to.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

September dates better for me especially with the H4H date. Do we know when the clocks change?

Don't think daylight is problem at beginning of October clicks don't change until
27th, sunset time on 4th October 18.27

 

[full_throttle]

a little update.

firstly thankyou everybody for your kind words, no-one can be as disappointed as I am that this has had to be cancelled, this was my first effort at arranging a golf day via the forum and until this week evrything had gone without any problems.


I am going to contact woburn after the easter break and confirm the date for rescheduling, at present the concensus is in favour of September and with H4H being announced I think it could be the better option.

Next week I will close this thread and start a new one with those that have paid given first refusal on dates followed by forum members who have since shown an interest, I have had 4 requests from some friends I play golf with so I'm sure we will fill any vancancies and have a great two days.

Sorry I couldn't give you more notice Rob, but I only sorted a deal out yesterday. West Hill only had one Monday in October available. Hopefully September will prove popular for Woburn

With Woburn sadly cancelled MashleyR7 and I played in the monthly Stableford with him scoring a pretty good 38 points. It turned out a pretty good day with some sunshine. I then walked round 9 holes with a mate who is recovering from major surgery, he can walk but not play yet. So Woburn it was not but it was a nice day away from the office but I do know I need to get fitter if I am going to do 36 holes later in the year at Woburn!

To answer the "which of the three courses" question:
1) Marquess
2) Duchess
3) Dukes
I have played all three twice, and the Marquess three times. I really hated the Dukes first time out, liked it better the second, but it would still be 3rd on my list. I love the Marquess, and could quite happily play that week in, week out. The Duchess, while rather narrow, has some super golf holes.

I still can't make it this year, but hope you all have a great time and that Sept or Oct is great weather for you!

 

[LIG]

I'm in for a second attempt but can anyone give guidance on which courses are the best combination. Who said the Duchess was tight?

Oh nevermind... in order of preference - 25th, 2nd, 27th, 4th.:thup:

we were spoiled last year Simon but have to agree, the Marquess was a pleasure to play

my 9 points on the dukes sums up how crap I, er I mean, it is
