golf courses

I'm a Tobago first-timer arriving on the island on October 21 with my wife and two children (13 and 10).
I've read on this great site that there are two good quality courses on the island does anyone know whether I have to book tee times in advance or can I just ring a few days before I want to play and book in?
Any help will be gratefully received.

Hello Rob

Welcome aboard!

Late October is a quiet time of year and I'm sure there's no need to book in advance. I think you will generally be able to get a slot to suit your preferences, etc. Remember, very early morning is by far the best time, before it gets too hot. Also, please remember to carry lots of bottled water with you - you'll need it.

Thanks Steve. Looking forward to being there in October.
Great site by the way. Very useful and a must for anyone thinking of visiting the island.
I'm a journalist who will be writing a travel piece for my newspaper is it Ok to mention site in my article?

Lets just put it this way, Rob....

If you don't, I shall track you down and ensure that your blood line ends courtesy of two house bricks, in the traditional way of emasculating camels.

Only joking, of course.

Better had then (he said in a deep baritone he wishes too keep).

Dear Rob,

I hope you don't think, that everybody on this side and in Tobago is as brutal as Steve (except of David W., Steve P., Paul T., me sometimes, and some others .....)
Have a nice time with golfing in October, mybe we can meet on a Carib (will hopefully be there from 27. September for two weeks)

Oh gosh, I couldn't stop laughing about this....

Cheers

If you were a man, Gisela, you would be wincing, not laughing.

Fortunately, Steve I'm a woman

... and I'm sorry but still laughing.....

Cheers

Gisela

Did I read correctly, that you may be back in Castara at the end of September?

Steve and I are just trying to finalise our dates for going back, and are currently looking at the last two weeks of September, so we may well overlap with you again, if only for a few days. If so, look forward to sharing a Carib with you (or two or three or more) in Codringtons or on Little Bay beach or on our balcony. (We are renting Tony and Brenda's again.)

Hi Jo!
I really like to come but I still don't know if I can make it, that is why I did not write it to the "meeting board" yet. It depends on different things I have no influence on.

But if I can make it somehow, you are the first who will have an email

Greetings to Steve

Cheers (and we will have a lot of Carib if we meet)
