I'd be up for this. I know bungle72 would be too. Although I'm no way near as good as yourself. You thinking Fri afternoon or early Sat am? We are booked into the Prem inn just off junction 26 M1.

What a great idea - you beat me to the post.

Only, I don't think I'll be going up on the Friday night (I have a golf weekend with mates the previous weekend and I can only get away with so much) so I was looking for a game on the Sunday morning. 

As most tend to drink during the game on the Saturday, I'm guessing your proposal is going to be more popular.

What time for the tee off on the Saturday (I'm already thinking I might get away with leaving early in morning)?

I've poker to Tony (bungle) and he is up for it. U wanna (I'll do same) google local municipal courses to junction 26 of the M1? I'll make sure I'm down by 12 ish which would leave enough time to play, check in afterwards at the Hotel, change and eat, before heading to DTD.

At 1st glance. Edwalton Golf Course looks the one. Play 9, then if enough time could play another 9?

Ive just started looking at some courses in the notts area, will choose a few and get a few prices something around 20-25£ should get us a decent ish place to place!

Hopefully we can get maybe 12 ish of us to play....

Sorry Jules I'm not playing crazy golf, although I know its right up your street....18 holes with buggies FTW please....

Mr Gibb, take a look at Bulwell Forest. Tenner a round, and looks a decent course, and not overly long for short hitters like myself. Even has a little 110 yard par 3, ideal for nearest the pin prize. 

pryce6

I'll play, I'm rubbish now mind - play a couple of times a year !

FlashFlush

Sounds quality! I was actually talking to lyonsbob about having a game of golf, so providing he is there on the Friday I expect he will be up for it as well.

yoyo

i'm not even sure what a 28 handicap is tbh...i've played 2 or 3 times & signs were i'm def not a natural...

lyonsbob06

Yeah I'm defo up for this. Not playing as much as I want cos of this rain. Bit of summer would'nt go a miss ;-)

the_gibb

Glad there is some interest in this! Hopefully 8-12 of us would be enough me thinks..........

I'm off to Marbella for 5 days from tomorrow (brag), when i get back i will start sorting proper numbers out and sort a place to play!
