Anyone know of its current course conditions? Playing there friday and would like to know. Thanks

Likely left it on back of truck before taking off from Greensmere Monday. If found, please return to Greensmere or pm me. I'll offer a round at Greensmere on me as reward. Watch is useless to anyone else as charger is unique and watch has been reported lost to SkyCaddie and disconnected from...

Any one played there recently? I'm supposed to play this weekend. How is the course? Anything similar in the city?

Had an interesting day of golf yesterday at Stonebridge. Course is in good condition but front nine is wet and cart path only on a number of holes. As a twosome we got paired up with a couple of nice and easygoing guys. On one of the holes we had a golf ball land 10-15yards behind us at most and it...

I'm currently a member at a private club but I'm curious to see what other options exist. My club doesn't offer a family deal. I see that club link has a deal whereby I could join as a fully privileged golfer and pay full dues but my spouse and children can play for free after twilight. I have to...

anyone else notice this? was able to find Diable but not Geant.

Have passes for Greyhawk, which course should we play and why?

I use the handicap form Ottawa Golf and find it quite useful. However I wonder how one guy can be a +40.2:scratchch Must be hard for him to win any bets:laughing: <TABLE style="BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" borderColor=#111111 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=4 width="100%" border=1> <TBODY> <TR> <TD...

This is the best email I received in years !!!!! Looking for some advice ! Driving there, hotel etc !!!

Hey I'm looking for some new people to play with, I've been a member at greyhawk for 14 years now, and play about 3 to 4 times a week (not an early morning player). I'm around a 16 index, but can play with anyone who just likes to have fun. Just looking for some new blood to join in with. Cheers...

Thinking of heading out to Loch Marsh soon, how bad are the mosquitoes at Loch Marsh? With the spring we had, it has been a prefect for mosquitoes breeding. Thanks, Dave

This thread is a development from the thread "Spring Conditions". Kilroy rightfully pointed out that the "Spring Conditions" thread had gotten kidnapped and devolved into a discussion into a "bang for the buck" thread. If you weren't a reader of the "Spring Conditions" thread, a review of page...

We now have 4 Golf Skate Caddy at Pine View. They are a lot of fun! Check out the video: http://www.pineview.com/en/golf/golfskatecaddy Please call to reserve. They will be in high demand. 613.746.4653

Something that has always irked me and wondering how others feel? Example; golf course has been around for 50 years. Home owner builds a house adjacent to the golf course. Home owner sells home and new owner than begins to complain/threaten golf course due to balls in back yard, etc. And here is...

I see that Chronogolf is now used for booking tee times there..but am I seeing things..45$ after 1 pm fri to sun...come on this cannot be,is it a joke.

Went on the Golf Select site just to see if there was anything going on, and could not find Equinelle on the course list. Has golf Select dropped EQ. Executive golf still has them on their course list. Does anyone know what's going on ?

This may be political and go against the forum rules but surely we can discuss it :-) With the number of middle of the road and less----why does the NCC handcuff it's private management companies with so many regulations. You would think that some of these courses were up and running long before...

Anyone played Dfly in the last few days,conditions?

Just a quick question about bringing your kids with you to the golf course. Do courses typically allow you to bring your kids onto the course for free? I'd like to bring my 8 and 5 year olds with me a few times but I'd think twice if I have to pay two extra green fees. Obviously I would go when...

:(

Wondering if anybody has any sugestions for low cost courses, ideally in the western area of Ottawa. I'm not to fussy about the club house and 'manicure' conditions. Cheers,

The last Annual General Meeting of the Stonebridge Community Association on April 6th, a friend mentioned Mattamy will be building homes on the golf course. Can anyone confirm this unfortunate (not surprised) event? Thanks

New to Ottawa and living downtown. Looking for somewhere to go practice during the week thats close and has a good setup. Any recommendations?

just read this on twitter Interesting note for Ottawa golfers, a group of 30 investors has purchased the Outaouais Golf Club and renamed it Rockland Golf Club.

My friend and I planning to possibly do the package deal mid june but I remember some comments from last year regarding the less than ideal conditions..and input?

Make this Good Friday a Great Friday. Book your tee time at Pine View. http://www.pineview.com/en

RGC opens this Thursday on all 18 greens! Our greens came through the winter fantastic. As anyone who has played RGC knows, we're built on sand, so our course has drained wonderfully and we're allowing carts out on the course Thursday as well. Spring Rates are $33 with cart before 11:00 am or...

The Stittsville Golf Course (formerly Glen Mar) is now open. Book your tee time: http://www.stittsvillegolf.com/en

Hi everyone, My dad will be coming out for a visit in early June, and we plan on getting a whole pile of golf in while he's here. He's a very avid golfer and has never been to Ottawa, so I was hoping to give him a bit of a "tour" of the area and get onto some nice courses. Here's some of...

Hi all, Has anyone been out to eQuinelle as of yet? Looking to get an idea of the conditions as I am playing there Saturday afternoon. Thanks

Hey guys, Anybody play cedar Glen this year or in the past. Playing this weekend and looking for some info. Thanks!

Herd a rumour this morning that Heritage is not going to open this year. Seems like they have declared bankruptcy or the bank has called in their loan. Anyone confirm this?

Anyone get out to Stonebridge today for the first 9 opening?

To all golfers, Le Sorcier will be open for it's 2017 season on Thursday April 27th with tee times starting at 8:00. The course as wintered very very well and all of our greens are in great shape. We will begin taking tee time reservation on Monday the 24th and our rate will be $ 49.00 + taxes...

After looking at a few of the pricing schedules for 2017 I see that there are some fairly decent green fees available for the year. Yesterdays post of Renfrew just about knocked me out of my chair. Monday and Tuesdays rates at a couple of other courses were also decent. I am pretty sure once...

Was just checking the Buckingham golf course web site, they are opening 9 holes for this Saturday and Sunday and 18 holes on Monday April 24th:)

The Superdome Sports Centre in Ben Franklin Park deflated while people were inside on Monday afternoon, but the sports facility's operators say no one was injured. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/superdome-deflates-1.4064769

As the title suggests, I came across this pass while doing my research on golf in the area and this seems like a great deal. Just wondering if it almost seems too good, since I can't find much of a mention of it anywhere else and there's almost no chatter about it on here. With a price of $129...

Equinelle is scheduled to open April 20. I had the opportunity to walk holes 7 to 9 today. Those holes look really good. Greens, though Equinelle didn't cover them this year, look to be in really great shape. Cart paths are a little soggy/damp in some areas. Looking forward to another great year at...

Just wondering for those able to play Prescott which opened today :-) how early season conditions are this year?

Hi all Couldn't make it to the golf show this year - can anyone clue me in to some early season specials or Groupons out there for green fees? Thanks.

Drove by this morning and saw a zoning application for residential use with townhouses and such. Too bad if it's disappearing as it's a great location but then again that's exactly why it would be closing. $$

Hi, Any thoughts on the merits of joining ClubEG. Seems like a good selection of courses and if you just get the week day membership are there usually any issues in reserving the spots, or any other comments anyone might have cheers

Just came back from the Ottawa golf show........it's getting worst every year!!!! A lot of the local courses weren't even there, to fill up the empty spaces they've put in kiosk that are not even related to golf.....sheppards of good hope, RBC finance, indoor curling!?!?....speaking with some of...

Any Greyhawk Members here? Just looking for feedback on the total package there... Good Men's night? What night is it? Any other fun events? Any early morning weekend groups? Thanks
