    Default EOI - 2020 South-West Victoria Champs

    In an effort to get the past weekend out of my head as quickly as possible (and in a plan that was conceived in the wee, wee, weeeeeeeee hours of Saturday morning by blokes who were barely capable of planning how to open the next beer bottle), I give you the EOI for the 2020 Victorian Champs in South West Victoria. That's right Mountain, come to mother-****ing Mohammed!!!!

    A very rough outline of plans have been made and if you're coming to my home area, you're coming to MY tour of the area. My home track, my current track, in my opinion the best track in the area and where I was once Club Champ, and the home of the current OWGR no. 17, Marc Leishman that I beat once waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in the day and have ridden into the ground. And another course. Don't know what yet.

    So roughly we're looking at:
    Thursday - Heywood Golf Club
    Friday & UCW - Port Fairy Golf Links
    Saturday - Portland Golf Club
    Sunday - Warrnambool Golf Club
    Monday - ????

    Costs will be super cheap, approx $50 at PF, $40 at Warrny, $30 at Portland, **** all at Heywood. Accomm will be cheap too. So biggest expense will be the hire car / minibus to get you boys (and girl(s)) here....

    Travel time as below....
    Melb to Port via Warr.jpg

    I need to get a gauge pretty early on so I can see if this is worthwhile running, otherwise I'll need time to arrange Melbourne courses instead.

    Accomm option...

    Portland:
    Portland Bay Lodge - $40 per person per night

    Would have full run of the facility and no noise restrictions...

    Can any of the local pubs live up to the standard set by the Bridport Inn?

    So theoretically speaking, going full rates (and we may get cheaper as a group of course):

    Golf: $15 + $50 + $30 + $45 + $20(?) = $160
    Accomm: $200
    Prize money: $60

    Golf and accomm for 5 days: $420

    Hard to beat that....

    Probably a bar set waaaaaaaay too high, unfortunately.

    Maybe I can use the money not spent on golf for a band, hookers and blow.

    Happy to put my hand up to share driving duties if it fits in with when the other clowns arrive.

    Well it can't get any worse so I'll be in unless unforseen circumstances pop up (i.e I go back to Barny , play the same and just wander into the ocean never to be seen again)

    Doing a Holt? Interesting strategy (subjective).
