Dear All,

Whilst I know that MPX is organising the first and inaugural Mizuno Forum Members Golf Day - and we all offer our thanks to MPX and Mizuno for doing this!!! - there seems to be a growing number of forum members who live further north, who would be interested in attending an event that is a bit closer to home and easier to get to.

Without treading on the "Official" golf day's toes - could anyone interested in a more Northerly venue please post below.

If you could post your interest, along with your home location, we can try and identify a central location that suits the majoroty of Northerners, and see if we can organise a get together of some kind.

The event could be as few as a fourball or as large as we want, it would just be good to have a day where we can put faces to the names, and drool over each other's Mizuno kit in person, and see who are all playing off of kid-on handicaps ;-).

Look forward to your responses...

D.

I'd definitely be interested in this though looking at previous threads it looks like this & an official one has been dicussed for a while. Always keen on an away day somewhere or even my home course dependant on number which is always a joy to play.

I'd be up for playing anywhere to be honest (the joys of a petrol card)

I'm based on the Wirral (near Liverpool) but would consider a jaunt up to Scotland or "North" North for a game, preferably on a weekend though.

I'm also up for this. There appears to be a Scotland theme developing from interest already shown so anywhere in the central belt would be great.

I'm keeping a spreadsheet with names and locations. After a week or so, I'll get everyone who has expressed an interest and figure out the most central location for the majority, select a course, select a date, and then post the details and get REAL expressions of interest. Following that, I'll book the course and date and get deposits from everyone.

Quite a complex operation really...

Well there is certainly a pattern emerging. So far we have 9 from central Scotland, 3 from Lanc's and 1 from the NE.

I'll start the suggestions for a course with No 55 on the Golf Monthly top 100 list, namely Silloth on Solway.

Driving times according to Google maps are:

From

M8/M9 jct 2:35
Kingston Br 2:20
M6/M62 jct 2:30
A1/A69 jct 1:47

Green fees vary from £28 to £56 depending on day of the week and time of year.

Any other suggestions for locations etc?

Good suggestion!

I was thinking of perhaps the Roxburghe? £200 per 4-ball inc soup & sandwiches (May - October).

There are so many good courses to choose from...

Let's see if we can drum up a bit more interest and then decide. But keep the suggestions coming...

Not played at The Roxburghe yet Deemac. I've played a couple of GM Forum outings at Goswick in Northumberland, its's a good track and welcomes visiting partys with open arms.

I thought of Goswick but it will be 3:50 drive for our southern chums. The Roxburghe would be 3:20.

It would need to be somewhere in the Carlisle area to be fair to all or it would have to be split into separate Scottish and English events.
