Got fucking drowned this evening bringing two lads out who live up the country, was rushing away to take training and walked in from the twelfth, literally the farthest point from the car park on the course. Match was won already at that stage anyhow, then they came in off 14. I wouldn’t have bothered my arse only a member has to be with a guest still. Heading for Doonbeg in the morning with them, trying to dry out all the gear now. Could be a long morning
And theres absolutely nowhere to hide on the links.
I’m half afraid to look at the forecast
An auld lad dropped me up vegetables today and hes auld stock and a man of few words.
Thunder tomorrow. And hes rarely wrong
Cork can thunder away if I get a calm day up here
Aim for the beach
Looks beautiful…
@Raylan how did it go?
I’m playing in society captains prize in deer park there in an hour. Looks like the heavens are going to open
Got away with it weather-wise, couple of showers but twas grand. Got tired on the back nine and the scoring petered out but enjoyed it all the same.
Slow play & fucking 4 balls on a busy Saturday morning. Fucking cunts.
One negative of all these new members, no etiquette at all.
4 balls are a pure cod.
3 balls only any day with a competition in my place i.e Thurs thru Sunday
Got around in three hours earlier
If they want to make golf appealing to the younger man/fellas with kids etc then 4 balls need to be banned for good. Unless maybe for a scramble. It is just too long a day over a short weekend
Fuckin can’t stand them. I always play better the less players as my game seems to prefer a quicker time between shots. Waiting around half the day or looking for other fellas golf balls and I just go to shite then myself
Agreed. Played Friday in a two ball as a fella dropped out and there was two two balls in front of us it was unreal. Teed off at 4 and was home for 7! We were lifting
4 & 1/2 hrs.
4 ball okay but not early in mornings, afternoons ok.
Hard to get a rhythm constantly waiting over shots.
That’s carnage. It’s 4 hours minimum with a 4 ball. Fuck that
The wankers had let the group in front through but not so accommodating for us.
We passed the group they let through and they heading down the 17th & we waiting like flutes on the 14th tee box
Sounds more like they passed ye Har
Edit
Just play 9 holes lads. It’s the way forward
