Hi all,
Seeing as it looks like business might slow down a bit, and I'll have some more time on my hands, I'm looking at joining a club finally, would be nice to have a handicap to try and improve!. Options I'm considering are (I live in the Redlands in BNE):
Wynnum - Play it regularly, and like it. My office is in Wynnum, so it's easy to skive off or play before work. Find it a bit short (don't think I ever hit an iron longer than a 6 there). I think the noms and subs are a bit steep for the course.
Redland Bay - Only played it a few times, and like it. Find the front 9 a bit boring, but really like the back 9. It's a bit further from him, but not much. No noms, and the subs are reasonable. Bit worried cause I've heard it can be quite busy.
Carbrook - Probably my favourite of the 3 to play, and I like the idea of a members owned course. Always seems to be in excellent knick. Just a bit more inconvenient to get to. Noms and subs are quite reasonable.
At this point I'll only be getting a 6 day, and Saturdays is devoted to driving kids to sporting events!
Any comments & assistance deciding most appreciated.
Cheers
