We are working on setting up another EDC event for the Ottawa golfers. On the Green Driving in Manotick would be the location. I am posting this to see how many Ottawa area golfers are interested in trying their skills of hitting the golf ball straight ??

Hi guys, Yesterday I played in a 3 some at the Canadian. We tee'd off at 1:15 and finished at 6:30PM. I understand it is the first week of golf for the club but why would you want to pack it to this capacity? Basically there was line up of 2 foursomes and every hole. I certainly won't play this...

Can anyone offer feedback on Camelot vs Greyhawk. I am looking to get a new membership for 2010. I am currently a member at EL. (I am not renewing because the greens are really crappy and they just don't spend the money to work on it. So it will be worse next year) My thoughts are as follows but...

Hi all, I’m new here. I just joined today in hoping that I would be able to find out any information from golfers in the Ottawa area. We are from small town, with inexpensive golf memberships where we can golf every day. Simple, but nice...Looking at all the courses from Ottawa online can be a...

Hi everyone... I searched the threads on "summer camp for kids" but I'm looking for something more recent. In particular: anyone has a comment on the summer camp the Chateau Cartier offers? from 2010, 2009'ish? Or, if you know of group classes for kids, or parent/kids, in the Quebec...

Looking for a decent golf course to play in the East end for under $50 on a Friday morning. Any suggestions, two courses I have seen in the area are Hammond and Nation.

I read in the Ottawa Sun this morning that Terry Matthews has almost secured a tourny for next August at the Marshes. This event would be a EPGA event scheduled for the week before the PGA Championship in 2004. There should be some sort of an announcement in the next 10 to 14 days confiming that...

I was wondering if the results for this past weeks tourny will be posted soon or if there is some sort of problem?

Played Kingways Sat @ 1:30 on Sat. Course pace was a bit slow (4:45 round). After 9, we popped in and got a hotdog etc to go. As we are walking out, the group behind (threesome) sees us coming out and runs past us to go to the tee box. Two of the three stand on the tee box. Now they are waiting...

are the speeds of the greens at both clubs similar or is one faster(or alot faster than the other)?

Played Emerald Links yesterday; East nine isn't open yet due to wet conditions, so we played West and South. East nine greens are in terrible shape. They've recently scored the greens and they're unplayable right now. However, the South nine was in IMMACULATE shape. No water or drainage...

For the first time ever, I had a problem at Loch March: Yesterday I went in to hit balls and get the speed of the greens, in preparation for my round this afternoon and was told that I WAS NOT ALLOWED TO PRACTICE or hit balls without a tee off time on the same day. I said that I was playing...

Found this nice place in Kanata for the golfers in the west end. "Play 4 Par Pubhouse" 592-1444. He just opened on Thursday. Nice place. Cool Sims. They're a bit more realistic. You can hit slices and hooks. I have to play a few more times before I get the distance control down. 38 coures. I...

Hey From a different Discussion. About the citizen tourney has raised a question. How difficult is it to get into an OPVGA tournament given the scoring requirements are met? Is this a political buddy buddy system? Or is it truly open to everyone? Thanks for the insight

Played the Prescott today. Got up got in my car and drove to Prescott. They had a spot for me as a single. And played a round. March 29th. How great is that. The course wasn't bad. No temp greens. The putting surfaces are actually looking very green. It could be a great golf season. It just...

I recieved an email not too long ago about a liquidation at the Embassy West hotel on Carling. Can anyone confirm the dates on this please?
