Ealing's a decent club - do they have any restrictions on playing ability (e.g must you prove handicap?)

as long as you don't hit it straight left through the Clubhouse window or take a two foot divot off the first tee Les.....you can play:D

I'm in. What sort of time are we looking at meeting up, coming from Hemel so no doubt will hit some sort of traffic.

Brings back terrible nightmares! :eek:

I used to play on a little par 3 course (Grasshoppers!) on Syon Lane, next door to Gillettes, and I remember clearing the club house down the left with a vicious hook and taking out a car window. I found the fella in the bar.

Embarrassing to say the least :sneakoff:

Had an awful round at Abbeymoor yesterday which doesn't bode well for Friday and Saturday :(

..................who is supplying the hats???................
 

Golf

Played Dorset Golf and Country Club, bloody hard course and with me playing crap (9 points on Saturday :() was a very long couple of days.
 

Golf

Had my first game in ages yesterday with bba89 senior & goodminton.

I had and eagle putt on a par 5 (first ever eagle attempt) and I lost my bottle and ended up 4 putting and therefore getting a bogey...... Gutted. :cry:
 

Golf

Played Abbeymoor on Sunday and scored 21 in 9 holes so hopefully my crap run of form has come to an end :)
 

Golf

Markybee :wave:

May well be interested in this too but will need to consult the missus as GB will be celebrating his 36th year that day. :rolleyes:

I play off 36 if that helps ? :fishing:
 

Golf

We have postponed this until next March....sadly. But we'll have a good turn out that day.
 

Golf

Played The Barn (or is it Sunbury Golf Centre :confused:) for the first time and scored 30 points so it appears I am back in form again :sorted:
 

Golf

Finally going to get to play a game on Friday - on my Jack though. :(

Going to have a knock at the Sunbury driving range first but can anyone recommend a relatively untaxing 18 holes within about 10 miles of Staines?
 

Golf

played Camberley Heath(a lovely course) today in a charity day, also a birthday treat and shot 37 points with 4 blobs off 10

Thorney Park

Can't quite remember if it is 18 or the same 9 twice but its nice enough, cheapish and ideal for a beginner.

Could also try Laleham (on the Marina road opposite Thorpe Park entrace). Not sure if they will let a single visitor on alone but its quite straightforward as a course.

Thanks for those - possibilities. How about Silvermere?

Not a bad shout, but as WarrenBee says, beware the last two holes if you haven't brought your swimgear !

Hoebridge at Woking might be another one to consider.
 

Golf

Hersham Village is a possible aswell, bit easier than some of the others mentioned.
AbbeyMoor is very good for people that don't play much but only 9 holes, could play the 9 holes twice though?

Abbey Moor is a very good 9 hole course and there is no reason you couldn't do 9 in the morning and 9 after lunch.

Golf

The Barn in Sunbury is relatively straightforward and reasonably priced but Hoebridge is a good shout also
 

Golf

Possibility of a free round at Ashford Manor. Which is nice. :) Might be a bit difficult though.

Played there after work last week. It used to be a sh*thole but they've been taken over and done it up a little. Not brilliant but decent for a quick round (two of us did it in 3 hours) and for £15.

Airlinks has great greens but is pretty flat and not that many trees. Tough course if it's windy though.

Pine Ridge is one of the best public courses that I have played.

True, but expect a 5 hour round this time of year.

Ritchings Park (especially back 9) in good condition at the moment.

Hoebridge main course is good value.

Fulwell on a Tues (public day) takes some beating.:sorted:
 

Golf

Tell me - a round in three figures is bad isn't it? :) Two pars though.

three figures for nine holes isn't ;)


I lost a CLUB at Ealing last night :cry:

Ah yes - this Ealing trip you've organised. Is it correct that you have to hold a handicap to go round Ealing?
 

Golf

Looking at treating myself to a set of Ping G15 clubs. Anyone recommend Ping or should I consider alternative brands?

Also, start a new job in 3 weeks at Stockley Park. Considering membership at Stockley Pines, anyone played there?

Yes thanks.

Kempy, I can probably get these for you at about 70% of what you would pay here.

Would be end of Feb or early March though.

Let me know.
