Does anyone here know anyone connected with the OVGA? I'd like to plan my summer tournaments and the schedule posted on their web-site is not very helpful in that it doesn't include dates and locations.

We have set a date for this year's Brian Kilrea Help Kids Golf Classic. Date: August 9th 2007 Location: The Meadows G&CC Cost: $150.00 (Green Fees, Cart, Lunch, Gift, Team Picture, Dinner, Fun Day) This tournament help underprivlaged children in the National Capital Region. Again we...

Might as well start the thread now that the field is posted. Having managed to not be a total tool to start the season, I managed to make it in this year (7.0) which was one of my goals for the season. Now onto part two, make the 36-hole cut. This will be my first "big-time" tournament aside...

Dan: When do you think you'll have the course openings up for this spring? I've been checking every day like a 3 year old checks their advent calendar. Cheers.

Here you go... I will update this later with everybody's handicap factor (aka index)... Also I've extended each round of the brackets to 3 weeks instead of 2 since there's only 32 of us not 64... http://www.bracketmaker.com/tmenu.cfm?tid=225521 Please post your round 1 details (date/time,...

2007 MEN'S INTERSECTIONAL DATE The 2007 Men's Intersectional matches will be played on Sunday, July 15th. This will be two weeks later than the traditional July long weekend Sunday date.

Hi all, I didn't think that I'd have the time (work) to go in the tournament this year, but it turns out that I could. Any chance of a post entry into this event? Does anyone even know who I could call to get on a waiting list (in case of cancellations)? Thanks in advance for any...

I am a 15-year old junior member with a five handicap at Rivermead. I am looking for an opportunity to caddie at the Ottawa Citizen Tournament on Monday for one of the contending players. My knowledge of the course may be beneficial to someone who doesn't know Rivermead very well.

Hi all, I was originally unable to play in this tournament, but that's changed now. I contacted the organizer (as per the flyer) but she said that entries were closed, and I was the 4th alternate (she hasn't contacted me...no surprise). I was thinking of showing up at Stonebridge, and making...

Since the Citizen is now over for me, time to shift focus to the other newspaper's tournament. Anyone else here playing? MJF and I are entered again this year, hoping to make up for last year's horrible play in the first round. To make things interesting, I think I'm going to call out...

This story seems to be going strong.....IMG should be making an announcement this month or in October as to the location for the 2007 Telus skins game. Read this article from July (Ottawa Sun) and you will see why there may be alot of truth to this rumour. Would like to see how Daly, Garcia,...

Anyone know what courses are in the rotation this year?

Here you go... I used www.random.org to generate a random sequence of numbers from 1 to 32 inclusively. This resulted in: http://www.bracketmaker.com/tmenu.cfm?tid=274878 A few things: 1) Please send me a PM with your current index. I'll update the brackets with your index (in brackets...

Looks like Dan and I have come up with our teams for our Annual Green vs Black Ryder Cup.:thumbsup Should be another good Battle with some familiar faces from the OG Forum community making their first appearences, being scooped up by Team Green captain..:scratchch Hmmmmm can we say Indio?...

The 2008 NCGT Season is over and we have our 7th Tour Champion. Congratulations to Jason Labelle. Jason continued with his steady play and came up with enough points to hold off all the others to become our 2008 NCGT Tour Champion. Jason finished with 281 points and kept a 7 point lead over...

http://www.golfmax.ca/course_sites/03499/ Anyone know which golf courses the coupons are for this year. Is it the same as last year? This show is a couple weeks later than years prior......hopefully spring will get here soon.:bored:

Just a FYI that registration for the 2008 sun scramble is now open. Got the e-mail today. http://www.ottawasunscramble.com/

The leaders were just teeing off when the horn blew around 1pm today. I believe the 3rd round results are essentially the final results. I was +8 through 12 holes. The course was extremely wet when we teed off. After some on and off rain for the first 6-7 holes it was worse. After another 5...

I think tomorrow is the deadline, did everyone sign up? It may not be full this year due to the $199 fee. I know there is only about 4 of us this year from our club as opposed to the usual 6-7. The top 8 get there entry paid, I know Koskie won but who's the other 7 lucky people?

I'm hoping to defend my 2010 C Class title this year... anybody else going? What class? I wish we could play that course more often! BullDog

Just wondering if everyone's (most) intersectional try-outs got under way this past weekend? We (Metcalfe) had our first 3 rounds Sat, Sun, and Mon. I think we have about 25 guys trying out. Last 3 chances are upcoming sat, sun, mon. we take best 2 of 3 rounds. I played yesterday, shot 80 for 28...

looks like the short course will cease to exist at Rbend 2011. Houses going in, excavation etc. already started. The Long course will not open initially in the spring for the full 18 holes as many of the front nine holes are affected by the project.

Hey Everyone, Just wanted to update everyone on some of the driving ranges that I've been to this year and what I think about them. 1. Kevin Haime - The best drving range around.....hands down. Great short game area and nice people offering all sorts of services! but im sure you all know...

On Friday March 4th and Saturday March 5th!?!?!? Who came up with this bright idea???? Why not have it during the weekend like they did before, Saturday, Sunday. They only good thing for people who can free themselves Friday is that the parking is free! Not impress with the date...

Looks like the CP Canadian Women's Open is coming back to Ottawa in 2017, part of Canada's 150th birthday celebration in the capital. Last time was a lot of fun, was really impressed at how engaging and friendly the LPGA pros are. Brooke Henderson will have a huge gallery following her I...

Like i stated a few days ago, Buckingham greens have been crosscut making them a bit hard to put but, they will be okey within a week. The rest of the course is in good shape.

What a day we had yesterday. Beating that ball around Pakenham (which is great condition) and beating the rain that fell just after the last group came in. :cool Group photo attached ....... If you notice, the guys holding the trophy are the 2005 Champs. Thanks to some great shotmaking and...

Those of us who are members at Greensmere have watched with interest, the construction of the new 18 holes, 9 of which will be opened next year for sure. Most holes have been cut out of 50 to 80 foot trees, the fairways will continue to be generous for the most part, the greens large in area, with...
