Hi Everyone,
I have been lurking here for a few days now, just recently discovered the site.
I am a Canadian by birth that travelled the country in 2001 and fell in love with it. Something about not having to shovel snow in the winter and being able to golf all year around appealed to me.
I now live in WA and have recently married an Aussie girl, so it looks as if I am here to stay.

Hi Johnny. Nice part of the world over there. Are you a regular at K-Bay?
Do you know Speirsy?

I am a regular at K. Bay. Does my head in. Don't know Speirsy, does he play out of the bay as well?

Speirsy is a member at Sanctuary. I played with him at Kennedy Bay about a month ago while I was in WA on business. He is from Canada as well. K-Bay tore me a new one. I don't know if I could handle playing there too often.

Welcome to the forum, JC. Most of us are pretty annoying, but we grow on you.

I actually played at Sanctuary for the first time last week. It was a very refreshing change from Kennedy. (I also had my 2nd ever hole in one, so I really enjoyed it!) Originally Posted by Courty

I played Kennedy today and played through a group on the 10th. I asked how their day was going and the reply I got was that it was too hard, they were losing too many balls, it was too expensive and they weren't enjoying themselves and wouldn't be coming back. We get that a lot there. They have actually made it easier since I joined (cutting away rough, etc..) but it still tears me up pretty frequently. I am at a stage now where I just want to play other courses to give myself a bit of a break.

Welcome aboard JC. Having been to WA and Canada, they're both great, but WA gives you more liveable weather. You made the right choice.
Hope you can meet up with some of the ozgolfers and perhaps recruit a few more for us. As mentioned already, spiersy is out that way, but we're not all like him!
Hope you enjoy the forum!

Well I have to say I'm torn here......DO I welcome the new Canuck to the WA wilderness? Or am I a little taken aback that I'm no longer unique? I'll go with the former.......Welcome my northern brother! Give me some details, where ya from in the great white north? I've been here 5 years, but just moved to WA a year ago. I'm heading back to Canada for Christmas, but I'll be back in January so we'll have to get a game at your place soon after that!
Looking forward to meeting up for a few rounds at K-Bay!

Well if we're in the middle of Melrose Place, hopefully you are in the apartment that burns down...
