Where in Melb do you intend to play?

Ferrins
1st February 2012, 04:07 PM
Only interested in taking the clubs to meet up with some OZgolf southerners. Courses are all good down there, so not fussed.

I am half a chance mate will keep you posted. where did you want to play ?

Ferrins
6th February 2012, 09:13 PM
I thought you southerners where men of leisure.

mint, I will have a car so happy to play anywhere. Staying in West Footscray.

Webster

Staying in West Footscray.

Make sure you keep the car locked.

Would offer a hit down my way, but I'm back playing cricket for a couple of months and the wife isn't all that enamoured of the "Golf in the morning, cricket in the afternoon" super Saturday strategy.

I had friends who lived in Footscray. They constantly referred to their address as "Seddon" to try and remove the stigma. I wasn't buying it.

I live in Williamstown (nearby) and may be able to get away for a game on Friday morning. I am back from Taiwan on the weekend and can see if I can get us a booking at my home club Kooringal if you are interested.

Ferrins
8th February 2012, 11:27 AM
Got to pick up a club from Geelong if anyone is out that way. Otherwise I might just have a hit at East Geelong GC on that day. Or maybe even tie it in with a drive to Bells Beach with the GF.

rodders I would be keen to play h/dale. One of the few I haven't played yet.

Ferrins, looks like my chance to play with you while you're here has been snuffed out by my boss. Grrrr.
I'll have to get that gear to you while you're here, or if you end up playing Kooringal that's just up the road from me.

rodders
8th February 2012, 09:51 PM
Next Thursday at 11.50 if that suits Ferrins.

Ferrins

Can't shift the meetings so Wed at Eynesbury isn't a goer.

Ferrins
9th February 2012, 09:32 PM
No worries,

Ferrins
10th February 2012, 06:46 AM
I'm off, yee ha!

Jarro
10th February 2012, 07:03 AM
Somebody down there should really give the Ferret a hug.

Sounds like he needs one.

Ferrins
10th February 2012, 07:27 AM
Great, rodders will wonder what type of wack job he has invited to Huntingdale.

IanO
10th February 2012, 09:31 PM
OK ... Good news / bad news :)
I can get us on but it is ladies comp par event so we have to tee off before 7:30 am
If that is ok send me your golf link number and I will book us in.
Anyone else want to join us to play Kooringal on Friday?

Happy to do that or we can hook up with Rodders and play Huntingdale, as the Thursday game there is a no go.

IanO
11th February 2012, 05:24 PM
Go for Huntingdale. It is a great course.

rodders
11th February 2012, 06:04 PM
Ian. Sorry it was my mistake with work that I could not get away Thursday.

I have booked an extra spot on Friday.

You are more than welcome to join us for a hit.

Cheers,

Rod

rodders
11th February 2012, 06:17 PM
Oh and Mint, I have also got a spot for you.

8.00am Friday, shotgun start.

Hope everyone can make it.

rodders
14th February 2012, 08:44 PM
Ok - 2 spots available for friday. $70 including stableford comp.

Any takers as I will have to let the spots go Thursday morning.

IanO
15th February 2012, 09:32 AM
Sorry guys, I thought I could get free for Friday but my WW has just booked a meeting from 8:00 until 9:30am on Friday so I am out.

Have a great game guys.

rodders
15th February 2012, 03:02 PM
No worries Ian. Still 2 spots. Bruce? Chappy?

Rodders don't you tempt me!!!!

Have seriously been considering this for an hour or 2, but just can't swing it for Friday.

Thanks for the offer

Bruce

Given how unproductive my afternoon was I should have taken this up.

Daves
19th February 2012, 02:26 PM
So did Huntingdale survive the Ferret?, or has the fabric of the universe now got a slight tear in it?

rodders
19th February 2012, 04:44 PM
Ferrins was the perfect gentleman and fitted in to Huntingdale perfectly.

Par for the first few holes he played, was only bought down to my mediocre standard over the course of 18 holes.

Just hope he survived the weekend!

Thanks for the hit Rod on the quality track that Huntingdale is. Just had a walk and swim at Curl Curl and will be heading back to Tenterfield tomorrow. Got your clubs Dave and will bring them to Reddie.
