Thanks John. So refreshing to see a repurposed golf course. You played very well by the way. Keep vlogs like this coming. I’m in Canada and we’re lack 9 hole courses here. I’m 73 so 9 is enough. Love your honest style.
@BIGOGGIEGOLF2 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much Norman. If you look at my back catalogue you will see that I do enjoy finding 9 hole courses as I agree with you that for many people 9 is fine. Time can also be a factor in peoples busy lives with families etc.

As a member of Lostwithiel from back in the mid 90s this was a treat, John. Thanks 🙏 The back 9 which has been retained is truly beautiful with some lovely golf holes, and is relatively flat along the river. You played it well too!

Thank you Stuart. It’s great to hear from People who knew the old course. I think the reopening has been very well received so far but all those popping over to take a look or try it out.

Hi there David, I think there will be things like that happening next year but right now it’s literally a caravan and two portaloos lol. So you need to bring everything with you… The management did actually try and get me a buggy and borrowed one for the day from a local golfer but it broke down after about 100 yards during the first video we made ha ha. But it was lively that they tried to sort something.

Looks nice Not sure how the separate tees work for 18 though? If you’re waiting to tee off on the first and someone is playing the same hole as the 10th, who tees off first ? Also , let’s say someone has just tee’d off as the 10th , and another 4 ball is on the tee waiting as there’s a little back log as it’s busy . You’re on the same hole waiting to tee off as the first . Who tees off ? If you tee off that means the ones waiting on the 10th tee are gonna have to wait even longer , when they’re already backing up ! How frustrating would that be ? !!!!!! Or am I missing something? Never played a course like this !
@BIGOGGIEGOLF2 жыл бұрын
It’s a very interesting concept isn’t it… I will be going back next week to do some more filming so will ask for a better answer but from what I understand it, it won’t happen because they actually book you a tee time for the front nine and a separate tee time for the back nine. So I guess they work out who will be playing at any given point.
