Make sure you’ve got enough balls in your bag for our trip to Boundary Lakes.
Covid-19 alternative plan
Assuming lockdown’s not quite over we may be doing a draw beforehand and the guidelines we followed at Hurtmore will still apply.
- Assume the first tee time will still be 10:44
- 8 minutes between tee times.
- Don’t assume NTP or birdies.
- Each player’s card to be marked by another player and scores agreed before submission to Andy.
- Let us know if you or your guest is a member.
The original plan
Coffee and bacon roll from 9:44 for first tee 10:44.
I don’t think the new holes will be in play. So plenty of NTP opportunities on the par 3’s and a birdie fest too?
To cut a long story short. We’re not playing at Hill Barn. Bob’s booked for 7 tee times, 28 players max, at Hurtmore.

TL;DR
We had hoped to return to Hill Barn in June for a mid morning start. Breakfast from 9:30 – it’s normally very good – and first tee at 10:30.
However, after a committee meeting, on Wednesday 10th June, Bob called Hill Barn to discuss the current situation regarding society bookings. The conclusion was that we would try elsewhere. One option was to swap dates with Chichester ( Cathedral or Tower) . That was no good. They’re not taking societies either.
