Ok guys, we can do the following at the Radisson... www.radisson.com/goldcoastau

$150 Bed and Breakfast twin share - ($75 p/p)

We don't have a Dan Murphy's onsite but I could probably organise a private room for dinner on the Saturday which has a pool table. Might even setup a poker table or two :) We have a la carte, light meals or a seafood buffet (possibly reduced to $36) which could be a bit pricey for everybody... And for those looking to extend the evening, we have a shuttle bus that runs to the Casino with the last leaving at 8:45pm which will cost you $6!

On the golf front, I'm happy to coordinate something with a few of my contacts but need to know which courses everybody wantes to play. We currently have availability at The Glades on Sunday from 9am (which could possibly be the last time we play it as a group) and G69 mentioned Palm Meadows or The Colonial for the Saturday.

I'll start another thread but if I could possibly have a show of hands for those interested in accommodation so I have an idea at what we are looking at. Might even look at another thread for the courses...

Is the Raddison at Palm meadows. I really do like the idea of a walk to Sundays tee.

jaybam
18th July 2008, 07:34 PM
Having never played Palm Meadows i am also thinking this would be good :)

sms316
18th July 2008, 09:31 PM
Given that I don't know too many courses in the GC, I vote PM on the basis that I have seen it on TV. The fact that Dan's is nowhere is only an issue if you can't get your act together the day before.

I think there is merit in the raddison accomodation and palm meadows golf. Could it be a possibility to do palm meadows - lakelands??

Have played bugger all courses down the coast so don't really give a rats where we play except to say that in past champs I think we have all found it much better to be staying at the location of the Sunday round - Kooralbyn last year and Bribie in 2006 were great because we didn't have to stuff around driving to the final round like we used to at CTH - so my 5 cents worth is to choose a course that has accom on site [is the Raddison at Palm Meadows ?] - otherwise wouldn't know about other courses / accom options down there apart from Royal Pines...............am very appreciative of the efforts of all to make alternative arrangements so far

peter_rs
19th July 2008, 06:22 PM
What about a Royal Pines stay and play thingo?

Shaz and i went down there recently with a golfing group of 20 and it was 160pp (including breaky and a round of golf). They had a 24hr bar open and pool tables and didn't mind us playing up. Highly recommended. So we could play there for one day and maybe another option for the other round is Gold Coast Burleigh Golf Course (probably have to be a sunday round though - cazandpaul may be able to let us know about availability). Might reduce the price a bit too.

Pending that, play Colonial, stay at radisson and then play palmy on the sunday (no travelling with a hangover! ) I'm sure the radisson would look after us no end (with an insider )

raddison is on site and has a great par 5 to end, (so does the pines) but its not near the club house.

PeteyD
20th July 2008, 08:41 PM
What is not near the clubhouse? the resort? Is it walking distance. DC in a car on Sunday morning is not a good idea ;)

markTHEblake
20th July 2008, 08:54 PM
Do we have to have carts? These rip off golf courses charge $30 for the carts usually.

peter_rs
20th July 2008, 09:10 PM
sorry peteyd. the 18 hole at royal pines is about 300m away from the club house and out of sight.

PM is at the club house.

both hotels are on site and no driving needed.

PeteyD
20th July 2008, 09:12 PM
Oh, I thought we were mainly interested in Palm Meadows. It sounds like the ideal finish to me.

peter_rs
20th July 2008, 10:03 PM
only talking about royal points as a social group of about 20 stayed there reachly and paid $160 ahead for the room and golf, and the staff were happy to deal with drunks at 2am.

but PM is the better finish.

Staying at Raddison, Colonial Satdee PM Sundee. Check with Shavey.

Grunt
28th July 2008, 03:17 PM
Yeah, what are the costs now?

PeteyD
28th July 2008, 03:19 PM
Check with Shavey for golf costs. Accom + Breakfast is $150.

Grunt
28th July 2008, 03:21 PM
So $400 + drink minimum.

PeteyD
28th July 2008, 03:21 PM
no one will play with you.

PeteyD
28th July 2008, 03:22 PM

where does that come from?

Room is $75 each (if you share), Colonial $60 and I think PM was $75.

Grunt
28th July 2008, 03:26 PM
You said $150 including breakfast, did not see twin share. Thought $75 each day for golf. Around 50 for Food & other stuff. I was thinking $400 would be a reasonable estimate for the weekend. So it may be around $300 + drinks.

Your estimate of your costs. Fixed costs are $210 twin share with 2 rounds of cart golf and accomodation and breakfast (assuming I have the green fees correct).

31st July 2008, 08:02 PM
Just to clear the air guys, the Radisson is not part of Palm Meadows but rather association by location. They are two completely separate entities and you don't need to apologise if you thought otherwise.

I'm forever correcting people that I am no longer in the golf industry and this to Gold Coast based hotel colleagues :) Just goes to show whatever advertising that may have occured years ago has unfortunately left a lasting, albeit distorted impression.

markTHEblake
31st July 2008, 08:09 PM
Rubbish Shavey, you still have a lot of pull around the golf clubs and everywhere, dont undersell yourself.

I heard you are twice as good as MJ Fox was in that Concierge movie :-)

Serious question: What can you do for blokes arriving/departing the airport at Coolangatta? A taxi is going to be $40 I reckon.

No, but it might be a good idea to count Jaybams clubs for him.

Its been a long day and i dont know what i have missed. Why would some one need to count my clubs???

oops, i coulda sworn it was $225 for two days, so i was implying you cant count. :oops:

Looks as if leave may be able to be had and also with the free reign on OT at work at the moment I should be able to drum up the cash to get approval from the minister for Finance to come up.

Will more than likely fly up now though. Will I be able to scab a lift from someone to & from Brisbane if I do come?

CHAMPS DETAILS:

STAYING: Raddison Resort. $150 Per Room twin share for Saturday Night. this does include breakfast on Sunday morning if you are capable of navigating to the dining room prior to your 8:00 tee off.

PLAYING: Palm Meadows both days. Cost is $65 per day for golf. This includes a cart.

Total Fixed outlay: $205 (assuming twin share)

thank you and good night.

Is this the correct info? it is kinda hard to keep track.

and what are the tee time blocks, could we get that in the first post too?

andyp, can you make this thread a sticky, so that all these interstaters stop ringing me asking questions cos they cant seperate all the good info from the waffle :)

I haven't done a round by eye for about 15 years - Woodlands. Hit a full wedge on one hole from what must have been 80m. Was still going up when it went past the flag.

It's the stab score minus handicap.

peter_rs
9th November 2008, 04:16 PM
Still struggling with this thing Peter, why do it?

because when the champs was smaller it was a 36 hole stroke title, due to the larger numbers it was swapped to stab event but the low markers still whated a gross prize. I'm happy to lose gross next year.

peter_rs
9th November 2008, 04:21 PM
It's the stab score minus handicap.
close that is what screwed last years result.

It was decided that it is a stab result of a 0 hcp hence we recorded everyones gross scores and auto calculated a stab score for there hcp and against 0.

It was this that allowed us to find that 13 out of 36 cards had scoring and or maths errors.
