Woburn fourballs and general information

[MKDave]

Could do Thursday this week, other than that gonna be tricky

Ok Mate Thursday works with me, I'll be out of work by 3:30pm so I'll drop you a text, or if you want to remind me then you can text moi

 

[MKDave]

Any questions please ask

Robert

I have an enquiry Robert; I only have carrybag at the moment but as I'm still not 100% after breaking my collarbone I wanted to either hire an electric trolley or I'll have to hire a buggy. I've had a look on the Woburn website but cannot find any information about elec trolley hire nor about buggy hire and prices.

Do you have an idea mate?

 

[full_throttle]

buggies don't come cheap £55 a day, and due to the weather only permitted with a medical certificate. I have borrowed a stewart push trolley for the day so have an electric spare, but don't know if it will last 36 holes.

maybe a good idea to ask on here if any attendees can help out for the day

Ok thanks thats partly what I thought.

Steve (Fundy) you're playing Wednesday so do you reckon you'll have a chance to charge yours up for another 36 for me to use Thursday?

If worst comes to worst I should be able to cope with a pull along trolley.

Yeah mine can go straight on charge and you can borrow it for the thursday mate. Only small problem is I dont expect that the battery will do the full 36 so you may have to nurse it round a little bit

Legend, do I have to use the cart bag or could I get away with shoving mine on there?

It will take any cart bag as long as I remember to put the plastic bits back on after using it on the Wednesday

Gentlemen, unfortunately we have ha a couple of last minute drop outs, so I have changed the running order, instead of 6x4 I am sending out 2x3 and 4x4 groups.

Apologies for any inconvienience

No problem FT

Not sure whether we are playing the Duchess or Marquess in the morning on Thursday as seeking some advice on using my Go Kart as I don't have a 36 hole battery, so don't think it will do two rounds in one day. Would the best thing be to use my GK on one particular course and carry on the other.
What are you other guys doing who are taking electric trolleys?

 

[full_throttle]

the Maquiss is played in the morning, it's 6300yards, the duchess is measured at 6442. maybe a good idea too use the trolley in the afernoon to help with the energy levels

 

[RichardC]

Last year I used mine and it was fine for 36.

It is fairly flat so you have the opportunity to push of power for small periods to save the battery.

 

[Swingalot]

Hate to be the merchant of doom, but with snow falling this weekend and the temp not forecasted to warm up next week, surely we are under threat of losing this meet?
Can someone who lives near the course please come on and tell me to stop being an old worry bags!

 

[pbrown7582]

i would imagine at least a trolley ban possible if the courses are open which isnt going to aid 36 holes....

I rang them a couple of days ago and the pro shop said that my electric trolley would definitely be ok

 

[Fish]

Not the greatest weather to see a few days before this well organised meet, it will take a good few days to thaw which possibly won't start until late Monday/Tuesday and then it needs to drain, do you guys have a plan "B"?

Would you go down and see it on Tuesday Rob if they say its OK? You don't want to play it in poor condition surely?

 

[Captainron]

Not looking like it will be the warmest on Thursday. My salopets might get a run out.

I am going to take my clubs and my sledge and use whichever is appropriate on the day!
