EOI - NSW Champs 2017
Guys just bouncing a few ideas around for times that would suit the most people for Ozgolf NSW Champs 2017. Keeping in mind I'm trying to keep a thought for other OzGolf Champs, Kids Sports, Pennants, Club Champs, School Holidays, Coring the greens etc. I've come up with the following options.
Please let me know which one would suit you better.

I am sure Yarrawonga is close enough to the SA border for peps to consider a top up!

Catalina has 27 holes, so you should be able to get access. It is 45 minutes south from Mollymook though and Narooma's another hour further down from the Bay.
Haven't played Hilltop in a couple of years, but last time I was there it was the best condition I had seen it, and they have had a wet summer.
Not much really worth playing around Nowra etc - or at least worthy of a Champs venue.

Guys, remember that a champs really has the golf as a 2nd tier option. I think the majority would agree the venues are 2nd to the camaraderie that the champs brings.

I would go with that. Has anyone really had a bad champs experience?

added bonus of watching the locals from next to the Country Club come in for their supplies, some mind boggling sites

Geographically - NSW.
For 'State Of Origin' selection - It's in Queensland!

It has been mentioned before, but somewhere like the Southern Highlands staying at Kangaroo Valley would be a good option. The cabins there would allow for a pretty social setting and keep the costs down by taking your own booze. Not the best course, but it is a lot of fun to play in my opinion, with short par 5's making for some good stories afterwards.
You could tie it in with Mt Broughton on the weekend. Gerringong looks like a fun track to play one other day and then the other local tracks that are there. Timing would be crucial however with the cold/fog limiting early tee off at times.

Weatherwise, the best time of the year for golf in NSW is March/April/May, but the weather at Horizons etc was great last year in June.
Regarding locations, Orange gets a bit cold in early winter through September, but it would be good in Autumn or late Spring.
I don't care in respect of date or location though. I'm travelling a long distance no matter what decision is made. But I did make a declaration when I left Sydney that I hoped to never go there again, so I'd have to think about a Champs at Stonecutters or Lynwood (or doesn't Lynwood count as Sydney?)
I'm also very surprised that Dangals, with his form in pro-ams, can't get us an invite at the top tracks.
