Courty comes to Melbourne

[Courty]

Now that my leave is approved, it's official. The Mrs & I are heading to Melbourne for a weeks holiday. I'm bringing the sticks down with me so I'll be looking for a game or two. A trip to Mornington is a definite possibility. The itinerary hasn't been nutted out yet, but we'll be there from 21-28th of March, so if you're available for a game between these dates reply in this thread.

Edit: I've just been talking to Bruce about a game at Mornington somewhere on the long weekend (venue to be determined). Anyone else interested?

[Bruce]

Saturday, Sunday or Monday for the Mornington trip should suit me.

I'll even give you a lift down.

So many choices down there - but there will be plenty of traffic so we will probably need to book soonish.

Wed 26th Sanctuary Lakes $40 for the round if your interested

Portsea is great if you like old world charm, and you should get on for an afternoon tee time. National Old & Moonah are the 2 best courses down there but you won't get on over Easter unless you can rustle up a couple of members. Moonah Links Legends is the pick of the modern courses, much more polished than the Dunes and way more fun than St Andrews Beach & the Open course. I wouldn't mind playing if there's spots available.

If you're playing on Sunday or Monday, I'll be in :)

[Moe Norman]

Courty - play Portsea if its possible.

Probably not going to last much longer and is a fantastic course.

[Flowergirl]

That's Easter - right? Then I'm free Sunday or Monday. Saturdya morning wuld be a bit hard for me but anything after 1 pm is ok.
Johnny Boy will probably play too.
Now - where do you want to play? Just remember that it will be BUSY everwhere.
Where are you staying?
You are both VERY welcome to stay with us. :mrgreen:

[AndyP]

Stay at FG's all week and play two different golf courses every day.

[swanny]

I would be ok for the sat or sunday.

[Courty]

At this stage I'm thinking Mornington (possibly Moonah Links Legends course) on Sunday and somewhere in Melbourne during the week (either Spring Valley or Sanctuary Lakes).

[Bruce]

For those that are planning - Moonah is $90.

[swanny]

ok Courty If you want sanctuary lakes we can have two others join us for the day.

[Courty]

Sorry mate. I haven't committed to any other rounds yet as we're sorting out our itinerary. I'll make a decision as soon as I can.

[swanny]

[swanny]

What days are you available? Apart from the Sunday round at Mornington, any other golf will have to be on a weekday.

Wednesday & Thursday mornings are out but I can do any other time with a weeks notice.

[andigold]

Just had a look at the club website Courty and the course is closed for 4 days from the Tuesday after Easter to host the 2008 Australian Boys Amateur Championship. So unless you can play on Easter Monday we won't be having a game at Spring Valley. Sorry.
