Will be on my first swing to Toronto this year.....

Wyndance, then Bond Head, then National Pines......... Sweet............ Then maybe hit the back roads and stop in at Rocky Crest on the way back home.

[golfott]

anyone know what the fee will be for bond head?

[btasse]

According to their web site $80 to $165 depending on the time of year. For Clublink members i would presume something like when we had access to Quatre Domaines outside Monteral which was the price of a cart fee.

[golfott]

maybe,

i would think more like glen abbey, there will be a fee, something like that, less than what the public pays, but still a fee.

It all depends on if they start selling memberships. If I remember correctly that's what they did with National Pines. It was a daily fee course for the first year as the membership base grew and then it went completely private.

[btasse]

If you check the Bond Head web site anyone could book tee times up to 2 months ahead; so agree that they probably wanted to honor tee times already committed to for this year (like Eagle Creek did). The letter of the announcement said that they were in a 21 year lease agreement with Bond Head Golf Club. Dont know if that changes anything regarding switching to a private entity.

Eagle Creek was completely public until CL bought and then they have turned it private. Mind you they new the membership would be there, so they didn't wait, but similar.

[golfott]

the club will remain a premium daily fee course, at least for the near future, should operate just the same glen abbey, question is, what will the fee be for clublink members vs the public.

That is my understanding as well, that for CL members it would be cart fee (mandatory) only.

[golfott]

where did you hear this info? about it being cart fee only?

[paulfourputt]

Straight from Clublink member services. As I said, no reciprocal fee but carts will be mandatory.

[golfott]

very interesting, that will be nice,

Hey, still keep tabs every now and then to see how the Ottawa golf season is shaping up. I will be in the area early June and plan to get out to GH for a round or two.

Colby, thanks. I appreciate knowing what's going on with Clublink. I am in Halifax for now but plan to be back in Ottawa in a few years and will rejoin.

[Colby]

No problem. There aren't any hard and fast rules...

[Section Thirty One]

Gold members, get your rounds in now... looks like Bond Head will be reassigned as Prestige next year.

Site has been changed already, no mention of prestige anymore.

Interesting.

The pricing for Hautes Plaines has also dropped. 4th level is now an even $4,000!
