I have booked a group for accommodation at the hotel. 2 family rooms (sleeps 4), 8 twins (sleeps 2) and 4 singles. All rooms are $110 per night + $15.00 per person for breakfast. Just need to divide the cost by the number of people in the room, a single cost is $125.00 per night. A twin is $70.00 per night per person. A Family room with 3 people is $51.66 per night per person and a Family Room with 4 people is $42.50 per night per person. All bookings (and the rates quoted) include breakfast. There are no reductions for not having breakfast.

I have also booked a conference room for Thursday, Friday & Saturday night. So get your leave forms in and your name down here. Lefty is still treasurer so the Bank Details are the same as last year for your payments.

19 takers in 3 days, good work Ozgolf. :)

We need to pay Commonwealth a $2K deposit by the end of the month so can we please get some payments happening. I have kicked it off with a cool $255 (50%) hitting lefty's account today. It doesn't have to be that much obviously but if we all put in $50 - $100 we can cover it easily without 1 person having to front the cost.

Thanks

BenM

For those who have played it,how does Commonwealth rate compared to say Vic,RM,Metropolitan etc??cheers

30th July 2016, 07:08 PM
Depends what you like Ray but it is a wonderfully strategic course, potentially second only to RMW in Melbourne. It is terribly overgrown however, narrowing too many holes and nullifying too much of the underlying strategy. This infuriates me as I believe there is a masterpiece behind all those trees.

RMW
Kingston Heath
Victoria
Metropolitan
RME
Commonwealth

Is how I would currently rate them and if OCCM were permitted to continue the good work they had already done before the committee stopped them last year then it would almost certainly drop in just before or just after the Heath. So I love it and hate it. :)

I guess the main thing needed for deposit v the whole lot is we're restricted to 40 spots on the Friday @ Commonwealth, so the entry $$$ for that is what guarantees your spot. The whole lot is not necessary until around early to middle Jan (at this stage).

My bank details are in the spoiler in the first post.

Random beer generator.

A bloke at NSW champs who will remain nameless (for the sake of this post let's just say he's a tool) only ever asked for a "beer" in a shout and was only a round or two from refusing to take orders any more detailed than that.

No problem. I'll see if I can elaborate a bit more in the beer thread (to avoid upsetting the Mid drinkers), rather than spitting out a list, like I have done.

It's possible that I may even be in Melbourne at the same time, but I don't know how much I will be required there over the coming months yet.

At this stage we have just 24 for the 2017 Vic Champs, to be held in just 7 weeks!!! Its an exciting 5th year, with 5 new courses on the Vic Champs rota.

Thursday is a warmup at the Sunshine Golf Club - not far from the airport, Sunshine is around 10 years old, and was designed by Craig Parry and PCD. Wide and relatively forgiving, it will be a great warmup venue for those travelling from afar.
Friday is the signature event - the UNCIVIL WAR #5 at the Commonwealth Golf Club, a tier 1 sandbelt course that hosted the Australian Womens Open in 2010 and 2011. Coming off a 5 year rebuild, the course should be in magic condition like all sandbelt tracks. The North play the South in matchplay - can the north settle the score?
Saturday is Waterford Valley - Round 1 of the Vic Champs, with wide open fairways and massive greens, and water on most of the back 9 holes. Could we see a GK style big score here? I think so...
Sunday is the Greg Norman designed Settlers Run - over fun, undulating land, it follows up on last years foray to the fun and interesting Sanctuary Lakes. If the wind gets up it will be tough, but again some burglar will find 40 points...
Monday is the wind down, and we head to Northern - five years after playing Southern, its a return to tree lined fairways and sandbelt style bunkers.

All accommodation is at the brilliant Parkview Hotel, with sensational breakfasts, the plunge pool and spa, the function room and all the fun we can have. Get on board!

Finally!

After years of either saying yes then having to drop out or not being able to from the start, I have the weekend confirmed as free!

So please put me down for Saturday and Sunday golf with no carts required.
Saturday accommodation. Happy to crash in a room with others to keep cost down for everyone but whatever's available.

The only changes would be if I have Monday free then I'd add accommodation and then possibly golf but Monday is unlikely.

Look forward to meeting everyone and having a good walk.

Can you add a cart for me for both Saturday and Sunday please Lefty?

Congrats Shaz and Pete!
