    Olivier,

    What do you want us to reply to?  How about if you tell us about golf
    in France?  I assume from your node name that you are in Evry.  Where
    do you play in the Paris area? What type of courses? How much? etc.
    
    My only golf experience in France is when  I  was asked to do several
    presentations at the Opio  DEE  seminar  (close  to  our  facility in
    Valbonne) over 2 years ago,  and  I played during lunch hour in the 9
    hole executive course in the premises.  Since  Digital  had the whole
    place and it was late in the  year, the course was empty and playable
    in about 1 hour, many holes where just half wedges.
    
    Only the last day I had time to  play at the championship course just
    outside Opio, it is called La Grande Bastide if I remember correctly.
    The course was relatively young and it showed, but a  good layout.  I
    believe  fees  were  reasonable  (for a private club in the south  of
    France).   I understand there is a course nearby with a stop  of  the
    European Tour.   (Mognes?    or something like that), but didn't have
    more time and I didn't know if I had access to it.

    Hi,
    
    I am based in Evry...
    
    For the Digital Golf Club we have agreements with special price in few
    Golfs :
    
    Etiolles, Saint-germain les Corbeil, Marivaux, Bondoufle, Green Parc,
    Golf National and some Public Golfs around Paris.
    
    It is very expensive to play Golf in Paris area (average of $65) but
    for Digital Players the cost is around $27.
    
    We have our Digital Competitions (8/year).
    
    Actually, we have 80 members in the Digital Golf Club for Paris area.
    
    I have also special deal with a Pro for individuals lessons.
    
    Since few weeks, we have Golf balls (Top Flite II) with Digital Logo.
    
    Myself, I have played more than 40 courses in France and outside France
    but south of France I know only the 9 holes Golf course in Opio (Club
    Mediterranee).
    
    Regards,
    
    Olivier.
