Kilmarnock Barassie Open 28th July

[Iaing]

Just a heads up.
£14 seems a good price to play this Open Qualifying course.

Cheers Iain, will get a form off to them on Monday, closing date is 30th. Just hope we don't get balloted out.

Hope not Alan. I've requested an 11am tee time.

Getting ready for my visit to Kilmarnock Barassie and it has to be the wettest day of the summer so far
Last time I played here it was exactly the same !!
Good luck to the guys playing here today

 

[Farneyman]

Enjoy lads. Im just about to get ready to do battle with Bellisle for their Open. Now where did I last leave my waterproofs...

 

[AMcC]

After the dreadful start to the morning I am sure I have sunburnt my forehead !! Two holes with waterproofs on and then the sun came out.
It was a well organised day and the course was in really good condition. The only slight concern was a few puddles about the place, I would have thought a links course like this would have handled the rain better considering how dry it has been recently.
The two guys I played with we're really good company, although they were not used to the severity of the rough.
Me, I had a no return on the front nine and almost played to my handicap on the back nine. Overall a most enjoyable day :thup::cheers:

 

[Iaing]

Aye, much the same here Alan. A dreadful front 9 followed by a decent back 9. Always good to finish stronger than you start.
Although a strong start would be nice!

 

[Val]

I was out a bit earlier Alan, started steady but 3 hours for 10 holes was murder. Nancy Reagan for me also after 15 holes. 5 hour rounds ain't fun, Barassie other than the standing water in some areas was in great condition, rough was a bit brutal though.

I did par the first whoop whoop. :whoo:

I wonder what the CSSS will be the SSS is already 74 for a par 72

Me too, and the second also.................downhill from there though

My average golf lasted to thefee one tee - 9 at the second, there is a story circulating someone else we know also managed that

 

[Iaing]

Aye Alan, a classy 5, 9, 8, 3 start for me. Then I steadied to utter mediocrity.
