I played Anderson Links for the first time Friday. Nice shape and good service but I must say a little over priced for green fees.

This just in - It's official. Anderson Links is opening on May 31st!

Does anyone one know what the deal is here, don't know how to enter the round for handicaping purposes. Has the slope and rating of the course been determined yet?

Anyone know who he is :scratchch and if he likes fast greens? The course is looking fabulous and will eat up :biting: Gib's other two, in my opinion.:thumbsup

As some of you may have seen in a recent post, as a result of several life factors, I am back in the position to play lots of golf this season so was on the hunt for a membership. I hadn't bothered to purchase one for the last few years as I knew I would not be playing enough to justify it. I...

I know its a long shot but, anybody know whats open today? Been calling around the Gatineau area with no succes.

I was hoping some of the guys and gals who move around a bit can comment on the state of some of the courses? Perhaps this would be better started as a "Drought 2012 Conditions" thread The past week I got out to a few courses within a 15 minutes drive from down town (Gatineau, Pineview etc) and...

I am moving to the west end of the city and was thinking this may be a course worth joining next year. I like to walk... but find the distances between holes on the new 9 very long. Do you have a choice on which 9s you play or are you stuck with what they put you on? Drew

I'm newish to Ottawa and looking for a course/club to join. I've heard some really good things about Hylands, but all of it from non-members. I'm wondering if there are any members here who have a thing or two to say? Thanks, Cheers! Gary

Hi everyone, I"m going golfing this weekend and would like to play somewhere new that I have not played before; I've only ever played Manderly, Rideau Glen, Capital, Meadows, and Falcon Ridge. I think this should be one of the few LAST good weekends and I'm going with a friend of mine. ...

Are there any new courses being built in the region?

Last year I played on those HD simulators in Outaoais. Lots of fun. Does anyone know if they have more than 2 simulators this year? or Is there anyone else like Golf-o-max that has upgraded to those HD versions? Thanks
