    Central coast would be good. Guess it can't be too far from the main airport but easy enough to get on and around?

    Goughy, you are probably thinking of the trip I had down to Newcastle/Sydney many moons ago.

    We played Newcastle on the Friday, stayed at Magenta, then played there on Saturday. There were 4 groups each day, which was big back then. A few went down for a Sydney game with Grunt on Sunday, while Iain and I went to the footy, then played Bonnie Doon on Monday with Amanda and Jono.

    It was one of the great OZgolf weekends.

    If on central coast, newcastle is an option.

    How many days and courses?

    Would be great if we could get a NSW champs going.

    We have a heap more active members than the other site, and they manage to get a group together every couple of months.
    surely we can do better?

    I have participated in a couple of I seek days and they are a lot of fun, but I reckon we have enough new members here to make a proper go of it.

    We should "do" the central coast, some nice courses and we can save some cash and camp in the back yard at PJ's!

    We had 10 or 11 in Canberra last year, with Dotty and Grunt down from Sydney and Mudguts from Brizvegas.

    Mudrat and KJ have recips at Gungahlin Lakes so I would be more than happy to organise again. I think we had the last 3 groups in the Saturday comp as I asked weeks in advance and they extended by 2 groups to accommodate us.

    We also had 12 at Mt Broughton a while ago, and I did notice another Mt Broughton $50 for 2 deal advertised on Golflink yesterday - here http://golflinkdeals.com.au/deal/syd...ource=golflink

    So, do we announce Mt Broughton again, set a date 2 months in advance, get 20 acceptances and end up with the standard 8 to 10?

    That answer is so 2010.
    (Answers the thread title perfectly, and the death of the NSW Matchplay comp.)

    Benno, there's a new breed of OzGolfers up here, with regular monthly games of 10-12 participants.

    Also helped by clubs no longer hesitating to say 'yes' at taking 3-4 times slots on a Sunday.

    I just did MtBrougton Saturday and Mossvale Sunday, with about 12 mates last weekend. Hit off 11pm at MtB and 8am at Mossvale. No issues with tee times, played in the comps and very affordable... a worthy option!

    Newcastle / Megenta / Central coast option also very doable in my opinion.

    My friends just did Kooinda Waters and the Springs, not sure it was comp, but the boys get away once year and we generally get around 30-40ppl. I missed out this year cos it was too close to when the bub was due.

    Have really had a chance to catch up to them. We've have played at Kooinda in the past and I really like that course....much fairer test of golf than Magenta. I'm not a fan of Magenta at all. I would have liked to play the Springs as I've heard good things about it.

    I really liked the Springs. Played in my first ever Ozgolf day there with MT and a couple of others. Like Kooindah too.

    Magenta is dissapoint.

    Stupid mobile devices....only if you get a chance. I forgot all about the springs and they have opened membership there. Just want to know if the course is a better standard now.

    I had a hit at the springs a month or so ago, it was absolutely bucketing down. From what I saw the condition was pretty good, greens were in good nick despite the rain, some minor areas in less then ideal condition but by no means was there a lot of them.
