| You might want to ask this in the VMSZOO::NEW_HAMPSHIRE notesfile.
Early April might be tough, late April is certainly possible.

| Alan,
You'll get a better response and info on southern N.H. courses in
FUNIES::GOLF, but as far as conditions, we still have some snow in the
ground, but is starting to warm up, so depending when in April you plan
to be here, where you'll find an open course.
As we speak, we drove one hour south from Maynard to play last weekend,
so that is about 2 hours from Nashua.
Bring several layers of thin but warm clothing, so you can put them on
or take them off as the temp changes. It is currently still in the 40's
F (around 5 C).
And sure, we'll fancy a game.

5206.3 | | WMOIS::GIROUARD_C | | Wed Mar 26 1997 08:47 | 14 |
| Prior to this recent snow the Amherst CC had the front 9 holes open.
This course is a 10 minute from the NQO facility and maybe a 30 minute
drive from ZKO.
The snow is just about gone now and the temperatures seem to be edging
into the moderate zone.
Unless we're surprised by snow or an inordinate amount of precipitation
my guess would be the chances will be good for a round.
Good Luck!
Chip

5206.4 | Shall we take this off line ? | WOTVAX::16.194.208.3::warder.reo.dec.com::sharkeya | Who am I now ? | Wed Mar 26 1997 14:59 | 10 |
| I get 'no such file' from FUNIES::GOLF.
Other than that, if anyone can assist me in finding the courses (weekend
before and after 14th April), and fancies a game, send me mail
(Alan Sharkey@EOL)
thanks for the help

| Sorry about that, it used to be in FUNIES and was moved to HUMANE a couple
of months back.
Again, you'll find the info you're looking there.

5206.7 | Sky Meadow | SWAM1::EBERT_VA | | Wed Mar 26 1997 19:27 | 10 |
| Sky Meadow Golf Coure just off of Route 3 (exit 1) -- almost across the
street from ZKO. This is an amazing course. I used to live on it, but
am now in California. Don't know if it is open to the public or for
that matter open for the season.
It's a little expensive...but worth it.
Cheers,
V

5206.8 | Overlook, Shaker Hills | FOUNDR::MANSOR | | Thu Mar 27 1997 16:25 | 9 |
| Another possibility is "Overlook" a couple exits north. Just get off
on Exit 5 and head west for a couple of miles. It's on your right.
It's a nice course with alot of doglegs and you'll enjoy it. I would
agree with the previous note that Sky Meadow's the place to play, but
I'm not sure if the public can still play there.
Another beauty is Shaker Hills in Harvard, MA. It's about 20 minutes
south of where you'll be, but well worth the ride. A public course with
a country club atmosphere, but also expensive.

5206.9 | thanks | WOTVAX::16.194.208.3::warder.reo.dec.com::sharkeya | Who am I now ? | Thu Mar 27 1997 17:58 | 5 |
| Thanks for those - I'd prefer 'cheap and cheerful' courses; my budget is
limited (working for DEC !)

Green Medows in Hudson is close to the ZKO facility in Nashua.
There are two 18-hole courses ... Which facility are you
visiting .. If it is ZKO, give me a call when you arrive
and I'll give you directions. dial 1-2063
These courses are as affordable as you're going to find and
the conditions should be OK considering the time of year.
Sky Meadow is private and $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

>Sky Meadow is private and $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
I think Sky Meadow is semi-private. Members get first shot
a tee times. Nonmembers can take what's left. Also, unless
you are a single hncp player, bring lots of old balls. Some
holes are tight and have lots of water. Balls off the fairway
are easilly lost.
It is also expensive, plan to spend $50 to $60 to play there.

5206.12 | Any footwear restrictions ? | WOTVAX::16.194.208.3::warder.reo.dec.com::sharkeya | Who am I now ? | Fri Mar 28 1997 16:31 | 9 |
| Thanks - I'll call you. I'm somewhere near ZKO - the hotel is the 'Crown
Plaza' I think.
Do your courses have restrictions on footware such as softspikes ?
regards

reply to .12
Don't worry about footwear ... at this very moment
snow shoes would be appropriate ... chances are when you
play in April the snow will be gone but it'll be very
muddy.
