Had my truck broken into last night in Morgan's Grant Kanata. My golf clubs, GPS and a number of other items were stolen. Please be on the look out for the following Titleist 913 D3 with knitted Titleist Pom Pom headcover Titleist 915F 15* with knitted Titleist Pom Pom headcover Titleist AP2...

Used 910, head is in good shape with some ball marks on the face. Tour AD DI 6s shaft is in good shape but has cosmetic blemishes from the back with some paint scratches. This does not affect the club performance. This also comes with a Winn Dry Tech Red/Black grip.

Just went to Emerald Links Driving Range today and talk to players saying the course was dry overall with few wet spots. I am playing Manderley Sunday and would like to know what other courses are like condition wise this time of year. Glad to kick off the season!

Any reviews of this "new" course (just north of Metcalfe G&CC) in the east-end.

We are undertaking a series of projects this summer to further enhance the golf course. All of the bunkers on the Executive Course are being reworked and filled in with new sand. Several new fairway bunkers are being added as well. We are also building a series of new tee decks on both courses to...

I played Edelweiss today. This is only the second time that I play there so I really don't know much about the course. The greens were crazy fast. I really mean "crazy". Every time I tried to chip and roll on to a green my ball rolled off the other side. On 18 I was 12 feet below the hole, I putted...

Its been years since I've played Canadian and looking to go back this year. Play with a bunch of guys in a semi/not so competitive comp each year. Looking to take the group there, but we want to look over a scorecard first to pick an appropriate set of tees. The club website is full of info,...

Women's shoes. I prefer to try on because online returns are a pain. Looking to spend around $50 max new simply because I don't know if I'll like the game yet. I live west of the city, close to Pembroke but come to Ottawa often enough.

From the Le Droit newspaper this morning: Pierre-Hughes Fortin taking over Mt-Cascades the 1st of May. Thats a surprise. He is the current owner of the Tecumseh golf course. Young 37 year old business man.

I know its a long shot, but I am going to be in Kanata tomorrow, any ranges open yet? thanks IA!

Seriously. I know it's gonna pour rain tomorrow, but I just can't deal with this snow. What's within 3 hours driving distance where I can enjoy non-winter conditions?

I was wondering if I could get some help here. I have been playing the PGA golf pool for 3 years now. When I registered 3 years ago I did not fill in my address and phone number etc. Thus when I won the pool 3 weeks ago I was deemed ineligible.I have emailed the guy who runs the pool several times...

Prescott Golf Club facebook page The first tee of the Prescott Golf Club will be open Easter Sunday. No carts available at this time. Please book your tee times online.

Any thoughts on the course? They have a cheapish intermediate membership. 8 mins from my work for $1035 tax in.

Saw this a few weeks ago. They have a membership drive on for 799.00 and couples for 1399.00 i believe. I think its Thunderbird Co. that has taken over.

Hey again all, Thanks a ton for all the input when it came to Cartier. I actually will not be getting a membership. My wife and I have recently won a bid for a home on the first tee of Carleton golf and yacht club. Hopefully the home inspections go well.. I will be talking to Kyle (assistant GM)...

Hylands has its intermediate membership (29-35) on for an absolutely ridiculous price. There has to be a catch - right? 36 holes, good enough to host a can tour event (even if it's not stellar, it can't be bad).... I've heard that it's tough to get a tee time, and their booking procedure, i.e.,...

Any suggestions for a club fitting. I am a senior male and 22 handicap.

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...

Hey everyone, I just moved here from Alberta, new to the area entirely and was looking at joining a Club. I'm likely to be in Ottawa for a few years and considering private or high end public. Anyone have any insight on what the best club would be in the area? Conditions?Price?Amenities? etc. ...

Hey Guys, I'm thinking of moving to stonebridge. Does anyone live there? Any thoughts on the course/living experience?

CTV Morning will be doing their thing from the Gregg Foley/Joe Dubinski school of golf Wednesday the 3rd of February. The first segment should air around 7 00 am. My son and I have been asked to attend in order to fill in the back drop. Hey BC MIST, you are an early riser, come on...

Our club currently has its club championship over the 3 days on Labour Day Weekend. Typically the OVGA Seniors' Intersectional falls on the Tuesday following Labour Day, which causes some guys to save themselves for Intersectionals by not playing the final round. Consequently, there's been some...
