fun golf day

Post by Gin tonic - no lime »

Pretty well any day is good for me and my wife....

retired you know :cheers:

Ok if I substitute my normal Tequila and lime for the beer at each stop.... I have kind of proved that most times it does not hurt the game, and sometimes loosens up the swing :wink: ... a good thing for old farts like me.

Geeze GT, almost a year since you've been on here last. Welcome back! Start a thread or two and let us know what you've been up to. Pete :cheers:

ok bozzman, I'm up for it - are you?

Sounds like you're the sort of fellah I could hack around 18 holes with!

I also reckon that the 18 holes on the Army course is as difficult as anything I've played here, lots of water. Comparison. Black mountain, Royal, Palm Hills, Springfield.

Personally I can't see the point of paying 600 baht to play on an army course when for 800 you can play on a decent one at the moment, I'll play anywhere though, after all it is a fun day!

In terms of difficulty I'll list my thoughts from the ones I've played, easiest being the top, hardest at the bottom:

Palm Hills
Majestic
Thannarat
Springfield
Royal
Dragon Hills
Lake View

Any thoughts JW?

Looking like we have a around 10 now, shall we say next Sunday?

As far as the course to use - what about a beer or 2 this week to put some ideas around?

For me the ARmy course is the hardest out there!!!

Not a bad run down Buksi, Palm hills is easiest for sure but not much fun IMO. Majestic struggles for condition but is super fun with some nice short holes - furthest away though, Springfield is a great all rounder. See what others think also.

Get buksida out again at Lake View. Another day like yesterday and he might sell me his clubs :idea:
Seriously though, anywhere will do for me.

Sunday at either Springfield or Lake View?? If we play around 1pm we could blast off to the driving range after for a wee beer and some grub!

Cheers,

JW
