Scenic Courses - Perth

This is the scene in Perth (Australia!). Some of you will know that one of our squad members is spending the winter months in Australia - wise girl. This picture of Wannaroo Golf Course was sent today by Gabrielle Macdonald. They seem to be checking the yardage! Not sure if they have DMDs there but maybe they keep them in their pouches! According to Gabrielle "its roasting over here". Just like home I hear you say. Maybe she meant the turkey!

Scenic Courses - Kingsknowe

16th Road Hole at Kingsknowe Golf Club courtesy of Louise Fraser. Very pretty. (The photograph I mean!)

Louise claims that winter greens are in operation - but I'm really not sure why!

Keep them coming!

Scenic Courses

Since there's not much golf news around just now, I thought we could maybe start a wee picture gallery of our courses. So here is one of Craigmillar Park to get you started. Email your photographs to Mary and any other news to keep us entertained during this snowy period.

Winter Foursomes Update

The 2nd round of the Winter Foursomes has now been extended until 31 January 2011. Lets hope we can all get back on the course by then. If not, we will need to think up some alternative games to play. The 10th at Craigmillar Park is being used as a toboggan run , so maybe we could have some races instead!

Watch this space!

Winter Foursomes

You may just have noticed that there has been a bit of snow and not surprisingly courses have been closed. Winter Foursomes ties have been put on hold and its unclear when courses are likely to re-open. We have decided therefore, to extend Round 2 of the competition to 31 December. The remaining rounds have been altered accordingly. Please click on Winter Foursomes on the left hand side of this page for dates.

We will re-assess the situation next week so please keep an eye on the website.
