Follow Follow Golf Day this year.

This sounds excellent. Please can you provisionally put my name down for this.

For someone who has never attended, I'm interested to know the format of the day, i.e. turn up and play, dinner and drinks after.

Also, is it recommended to find accommodation as a few beers are likely to follow?

Tryst isn’t available on the 16th.

I’ve asked my own course by email this morning and never got anything back.

Waiting on TalkTalk for the Royal for a price and time.

I’m home on Friday weather permitting so I can pop into my club and ask Falkirk GC (Carmuirs).

I will be holding the FF golf day this year along with Mark and @Talktalk .
Looking at Falkirk Tryst Golf club or Royal Musselburgh.
We will be contacting the clubs to see if they're available for Friday 16th Sept and a midday start.
Price-Course and charity that funds will be raised for will be confirmed soon as possible, this post is just to see what interest there is for the Follow Follow Charity Golf Day.
People are more than welcome to bring a prize along on the day and we will get a raffle going.
Those who don't play golf on FF, you're more than welcome to donate a prize to raise funds for the charity.

Interest so far see below.

I will play too
 
Ok folks I’ve edited the first post.

All information is on there.

Any further questions feel free to ask.

For those wanting to stay overnight there’s a hotel at the Rosebank(5 min walk from the course using 2 streets).
Plenty of RSC buses if you fancy going to the game on the Saturday as well.



Closest train station is Camelon only 2 min walk.
Both main train stations are not much more than £5 in a taxi at a guess.

5 min drive from the motorway.

No m8....

Cards will be handed out on the day,
Fill them in(name & Handicap max 18).
Hand your card to someone in your group to mark the score.

Handicap will be on trust bud.

Hopefully the drink puts you into double figures on the day and balances out with the rest of us hackers lol

Check out the Rosebank for accommodation.
Think its a Premier inn.
Nice bar and food in the Rosebank if that's any help lads.
Less than one mile from the town.
5 mins from the course.
 
Drop us a DM and we'll send out some of our club cover sets for prizes. Enjoy your day out when it comes guys.

Heading over tomorrow to pay a deposit to confirm the booking.

If anyone else fancies paying for their slot just DM for details.
 
'Handicap max 18'

Daft question - does this mean those with a higher handicap can't, or maybe shouldn't, play?

You can still play.

It just means your handicap will be 18.

Easier for the person marking cards.

Also quicker because anything over a double bogey you don’t score points so just pick the ball up m8.
 
CAL said:
I'd love to play off 18 someday :D

I guess it's more of a cap than a limit to entry?

Definitely. When I was growing up stableford comps were always limited to 18. That seemed to stop for some reason. Anyway as others have said this one is all about the day out anyway mate.

As it stands I can't go to this, which is gutting as I used to really enjoy the FF golf day. Great to see it back and if I can get a swap nearer the time I may be able to get along.
