Correct, sadly I have run out of vouchers & I doubt they will ever offer them again.

No problem, present the letter at pro shop, being a 50 points green fee I doubt you would need to do anymore than that

I know at Murray Downs (all the recips being 50 points, and tonnes of them!) they don't give a sh!te, Golflink card is enough.

It's only the 4 of us for this game?
Just putting it out there I'd like to hit off as close to 1pm or earlier if possible as I have to pick up my daughter from the Ex's place after the game later than my usual pick up time. I'm already going to have to negotiate a later pick up as it is and not sure how receptive that request will be? I'll have to head off as soon as the round has finished as it is and may have to leave the game early if the round is slow.

I come in on QF661 landing at 9:25. Need to get baggage and rental car and then however long it takes to drive there. I'd think 1 pm is fine for me.

Im not allowed to book the round until a week out. I have been speaking with a lady (new in the proshop I assume as I have always dealt with Matty Dent) and she seems uber strict.

I will aim for 12 noon. Hatch I assume you're not in for dinner now. Might also be a tad early so I will check.

No dinner after Blackwood now.
Mount Compass game I’m still in for dinner.

IF...

I could wrangle up a tier 1 course game (instead of Blackwood) at a members guest rate, would you be interested in a venue change for this game?

No promises, but will know more in a few days time.

Potential course is Grange, not sure which of the two courses would be available

Tee time priority is really for RA members but will see if I can squeeze 3 guests on as well. See how I go

Got a call back, they're enforcing a 'members only' policy due to limited tee times.

I might go in the comp now that were off @ 12, but will see how I/we are feeling on the day

Yeah, count me in too.

I've changed my tune on this. I used to think there was no point, since I'd never go back if I actually won anything, but I've realised I enjoy the slightly increased competitiveness. And comp fees are so small in SA.

I can bring it up to QLD in July, as I will be there for an expo and planning to take a small amount of time off afterwards.
