View Full Version : The Hills, on the 11/12

7th October 2004, 02:04 PM
Chatting with Vegas, we would both like to play at the Hills at Jimboomba, I'm yet to ring them to find out about open comps etc, but was thinking it would be better being after the champs, so will say the 13th November, at this stage. I just checked and according to Macca's Open day lists Open day Lists (http://www.ozgolf.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=490) they have open comps on Saturday's??

How many people would be interested in playing out there, on or around this date??

Iain

Edit....
Guy's I have postponed this due to the round at Northlakes that Shavey has kindly organised..... :wink:

Davidp has asked me to alter the thread title, to get this back, so I'll leave the organising up to him.....

Cmon Iain, can't you get your secretary to proof read your typing before posting..... :roll:
Um....in current form I'm a little scared about that track. Haven't played it before but anyone you ask about it comes up with one word....LONG ! (and jarro, please don't go in the wrong direction with this line) :?
Sorry mate, my secretary left..... :roll:

Don't be a wuss mate, just come out ot enjoy a new track with some mates..... :wink: No one really cares when you break 100... :wink:

The open day comp thread, see the link in my first post, has it at $15, I'm not sure if that is just the comp fee's, with green fee's to pay or that is all?

If it is it's a bargain.... 8)

I got the info and its correct, that amount is all inclusive.
HOWEVER. I did say that Open days are Wednesdays or Saturdays.
14 November is a Sunday.

I have the program book here, there is also no comp on Sundays.

Hi David,

Assuming I can get the car off the missus for the day, I can swing by and pick you up. I'm at Goodna, but I'll come via the Logan Motorway and stop in at Sunnybank Hills.

Thanks BrisVegas. I'll e-mail with details closer to the date. Fantastic rain we're getting. The golf courses have really needed it..

I just rang The Hills, sheet's should be out within the next 2 weeks, so will try again Monday, otherwise can everyone PM their name, hcp and Club, so I can be ready to put names down.

Thinking about it, maybe if Goughy or Jaster reads this, we should start a Sticky where everyone can put thier name, club and hcp down, so we don't have to keep asking for PM's and can update it themselves, just edit a post?? Does anyone else think this is a good idea or am I just nut's?? :smt103 :smt120

We could also record our phone numbers, number of grape shirts we own, addresses, times that we aren't home, etc.

That's a lot of trust to put into a bunch of axe murderers. :shock: :wink:

I've never had a golf club ask me for my golf link number when booking, and only occasionally for my home club. :?

10th November 2004, 08:26 AM
DavidP,

At this early stage, I am in. Although I have that nagging feeling that I had something else on that day.... :?

Anyhoo, I'd vote for an early start (before 8am). It's gonna be hotter than hades in mid-December out there. 8) If jaster or goughy decide to join us from Toowoomba, I can live with playing a bit later though.

The original lineup was....

No deal to organise, its $15 straight up including the comp fee, so you just got to book the times.

Does the timesheet come out one week or two weeks in advance?

davidp
10th November 2004, 12:18 PM
AndyP, the timesheet for the 11th Dec hasn't come out yet. It will be done probably 1st week of Dec.

I was wrong about the comp for 11/12. I was previously told it was a Single Stab, but it's a 3 person ambrose with tee times finishing at 10:30 am. :oops: . I don't think people will want to play an ambrose would they?

Talking to Jim Duncan at Hills, if we have about 15 people, he should be able to do a special deal for us on the green fees. It's usually $25 for social play, as opposed to $15 for comps.

Personally, I would prefer a single event if we are going to make the trip down there. What about the weekend before or after?

BrisVegas
10th November 2004, 12:50 PM
Give it a miss eh? Ambrose's are a waste of time. I need all the 0.1's I can get back!!!

Either the 4th or 18th might work. I'd prefer the 4th, for no other reason that the 18th is only a week from Christmas.

davidp
10th November 2004, 12:55 PM
The 4th is their Monthly Medal. The 18th is also a 3 ball Ambrose. As AndyP said, :smt078 .

Need to find an alternative course. We might put the Hills off until next year..
