Hi Everyone,
I’ve moved to Melbourne and keen to go and play some golf, anyone keen for a round,

Hey Bio

My ETA from the UK is now looking like early January.
Will touch base around that time to see if your keen to play, as I plan on doing as much golf and as little work as possible.

Curiously, are you planning on joining a club based on the move to Melbourne?

I’ll play with you champ when I get my irons repaired!! lol

Currently set looks like this:

5, 6, 7, 8, 9 irons operational…

PW, SW, LW broken heads

4 iron bent shaft

1 iron snapped shaft!!

Maybe we can organise a big ISG golf day in Melbourne? There is never anything listed in the posts on that thread!!

Where are you Melbourne Golfers?!?

Bio/AB
At the risk off playing with the next world long drive champ and a golf teacher held in very high regard,
I am interested,
Kiwi

My flights from London are all now confirmed and I’ll be in NZ from 24th Nov to 15th Jan, then Melbourne from 18th January onwards. I plan to base myself in Melbourne with the view to play some golf, make contacts in the golfing circles, and also to learn as much as I can.
I’ve been coaching full time in England for 15 years and thought I knew quite a bit until I found iseek forums. I was so impressed by this web site it was one of the key factors in my decision to take a 4 month sabatical to NZ and Oz.
I’m counting down the days!!!

You will have a ball!

We’ve had a few in the past. The problem was getting access. Because no club members wanted to invite, we were stuck with public courses only (slim pickings) or driving further out to places like the frog or waterford valley.

Some dream, others DO!

AB bet you can pretty much play w your driver anyhow
just bomb them away

Fore !

also no probs w putting too :)

Why not have a look at the ISG voucher venue lists and picking a good one? One would hope that a phone call with “we potentially have 12-20 ISGers for choise of dates abc can we come?” might get a useful response. Heck all we hear from golf courses is how tough it is out there.

Hahahaha… The loft is about the same!! lol… Just have to choke WAY down!

Kiwi:

Yeah sweet! Once the ball comes off the tee it is a pretty level playing field with me! lol…

Alex:

Look forward to have you here!

Dave_1:

That’s no good, well we can organise public access days and work on pulling some strings behind the scenes to get onto some more exclusive tracks?

Guru:

You took the words out of mouth, ISG dropping has got to count for something… Publicity? ;-)

I don’t think isg carries much weight…no offence to admin.

Basically it comes down to sunday only as club members still like to play the saturday comp at their home track. Having contacted nearly all metro clubs in the past, the best deal I struck was spring valley ($50 p/round).

I have not looked at the Vic voucher list much but I would have thought most were more resorty than clubs. I can see why the clubs would not be impressed:)

Guys, I am a member at Heritage, happy to hook up a game there with any of you on either a Sat or Sun, there are two courses so never a drama getting a game.

Cheers

Now there is a friendly offer too good to refuse.

Wow boys,
That would be awesome to catch up with you all and play, I’m excited to get back out there, Last 12 months been flat out setup my new adventure haven’t had time, but now I’m settled can’t wait to go back on the horse again my email is bome77 at bigpond.com

Girls welcome too???

Well….Tiger was taken! And it’s Cheetah – not Cheater, thank you very much.

If you guys would be happy to have a hack 90’s + player with you would love to tag along !

Sorry can’t mactch the Heritage but if you wnat to weave your way through the powerlines at Waverley GC let me know

With a line up like this and the cheap flights coming, I may fly home to Melbourne and play with you people…. weather gets better in around September/October.. I know Bio wants to play generally but a reunion of sorts might be good as the weather improves… thoughts?

Cheetah:

Of course! To answer your post in golf talk, would be more than happy to hit some balls with you anytime – No appearance fee necessary!! lol… Where do you play? Am training at SISTEMS golf range in Hoppers during the week if you wanted to come there?

Marnic:

Would definitely be up to play Heritage one day!!

GC78:

Of course, am sure Bio could give you some great pointers, he is a fantastic source of knowledge re the golf swing!! You’ll be shooting 70’s before you know it!

KYC:

God all the cool cats have been taken!! lol What am I going to be? Snappy Tom… lol

Happy hooker:

As long as it has grass I am happy to play. Dodging powerlines is just an extra challenge!!

Ditty:

Yeah Id be down with that – if schedule permits and I am not in some other part of Australia!! November onwards I am totally free!!

Looks like a good group happening.
Lots of skill levels.
Who’s going to be the fat controller & organise
Kiwi

P.S what are the hours at your new place?
sorry to hijack thread

keep me a spot – don’t know when I’ll make it, but I will – definitely in the next 5 years!

Kiwi,
Are you raising your hand for the job to be chief organiser.
Everyone above wow this is fantastic, I’m happy to play with everyone,
and play any golf coarse, I’m just a country boy who just loves to play golf, In W.A when I was working out bush saving money up to head to Europe to play, I play on a dirt coarse, We had sand scrape greens and had to carry a piece of grass turf around to place your ball on , the fairways were powdered dirt, You hit the ball left you were in cap rock country, hit it right and reload you were in the bush amongst spinafex
country, And I absolutley loved that coarse what a challenge.
Ditty your welcome to fly down any time and come for a game would be an honour to play with you, It would be a great honour to play with everyone and have the privilege to enjoy everyone’s company, we can all go out and have a ball playing a game we are all passionate about
