It will certainly be a feather in your cap to make both. You'll just have to wing it

Should be good to go for this too I reckon Seve.

Qualifying should be well over by then, so might as well try win something before the year is up

RoadRunner

Playing the Heritage tomorrow with doublecross and one other (tigerwood?), looking for a fourth player.

Weather to be cracking!

doublecross

Yes, I've money to burn and will pay whatever it takes to play the best courses

We're sorted, I've been informed BallyK is join us to complete the team.

Format is 3/4 handicap with 2 scores per hole.

RoadRunner

Don't worry about it. The weather will be good tomorrow that's all that counts
If you've been issued a Society Handicap then that will be okay but I don't know if that's something official or not?

The goal is beating Paulos Bobster Tiger and Recycled. Should be easy. I'm sure we'll meet them after the round.

Money where mouth is
.or keyboard in this case..comes to mind
Fiver a man
3/4 difference suits lower handicappers though
Society event so no need for gui handicap
If theres a prob roadrunner let me know and i will fix one up for you for the right price....just joking guys and gals

Yeap we have two teams, dont think no gui will be a problem road as it is a society challenge, either way we should have some fun with a few friendly bets:D. looks like we are going to be lucky with the weather its a shotgun start at 11am with tea/coffee breakfast roll before we go out and a buffet dinner after. I'll be down there early 9:30 on the driving range to ensure no horror show on the golf course. ps i bring the fireworks this time instead of champagne:P

Well all i'll say to that is i had very enjoyable banana split compliments of roadrunner:).
We finished 4th overall picking up a box of srixon balls each, paulos played some superb golf with a near hole in one on a par 3, reclycled and bobster backed him up with solid performances unfortunately not for the first time this year i went missing in action (probably cost us the win):o.
Thanks to all the lads for a great day and will look forward to seeing yee all early next year.

What a great day for a game of golf, who would have thought we would be playing in shirtsleeves on the 31st of October
As tiger said, Paulos was magnificient, 3 birdies, nearly a hole in one, 37 points with 3 scratches, 34points off 3/4 handicap.
Tiger just didnt have any luck today but we all know tiger, the next day he is well capable of burning it up.
Recycled has some fantastic shots in the bag and brought quite a few with him today.
Me, I hacked my way around, 31 pts off reduced handicap of 11, 35 off Boards handicap.
Just delighted to be playing with some great guys and Roadrunner and Co were gracious in defeat...we however gloated in victory


Thanks guys for the FREE DESSERTS,they were delicious

Actually as far as I know you were 5th but that was still a lot better than we managed!

Very lucky with the weather, beautiful day no wind, perfect for golf. The greens were hollow tined, which was a problem for everyone. It was very well organised, and the food provided was great, including the "deserts".
The man of the match was "Paulos" went so close for the eagle, from the tee it looked an inch away. His iron play was on song with tap in birdies.
Tiger was a little dispondent with himself, he thought he was going to burn it up ... who hasn't being their. He sank a miler from the front of the index 1 for a par - unreal.
Bobster split the fairway all day with the driver, very solid. Had some great scores, one of the best was the up and down on the last from 140 ish for a par.

It was a shotgun start and we started on the 7th par three. The long walk in from the 6th was a killer( as Billy Connelly says - the legs are dead)
We had a ball in the club house with the lads - Bobster and tiger, slagging off Roadrunner and doublecross. It was hard to eat listening to the comments and laughing.

Looking forward to next year, I'll start taking the tablets now to be ready lads

My thanks to the team and in particular to Tiger for all the arrangments etc., Seve's training is paying off

Will not unfortunately be travelling to Corballis, would have to leave at dawn to make the tee time - sorry Seve, you can send on the Tukey in absentia.

Thats my golf for this year, with the high milage I'm due for a full service - plugs and points.

A few relaxing pints with the feet up will be great.

doublecross

Yes, I've money to burn and will pay whatever it takes to play the best courses

Well done on the top 5 finish lads. Ye didn't just beat us, ye hammered us. paulos must have been peppering the pin to get such a good score.

A little disappointed with the state of the greens. Talking to other groups they were annoyed that this event was held so soon after coring the greens. But on the plus side the weather was fantastic and the food hit the spot.

Thanks to BallyK and Roadrunner for the company. We just couldn't get it going. I had my worst putting display of the year and found the water far too often. Think I'd a run of 8 holes without a par. Maybe it was the pressure of the €5 bet!!

I had 5 GIR but was lucky enough for 2 of those to be near gimmes and also had a chip-in for birdie on the 2nd.

I found the medium to long range putting tough but I holed everything from inside 6 feet including a few pressure putts when I was the last man standing.

RoadRunner

Inconsistent golf for me. But really enjoyed the day. Couldn't ask for better weather/course to play on. Didn't care too much for the banter in the bar afterwards but I suppose seeing the idiotic face grins on the lads across the table might have been worth handing over a fiver for. Maybe.

Haha idiotic face grins..good one
Nearly as good as looking at you trying to smile and being deafened by the sound of your teeth grinding..couldnt even hear the match with ya

Seriously tho its good to be able to gloat now and then, doesnt happen too often
