NORTH EAST King of Kings 2014

[Beezerk]

A bit of wind round there will make it interesting, especially the par 3 5th

I've just checked out the holes on their website...kin nora
I'm actually properly $hitting myself about a few holes

Haha, it's not actually that bad.

Pretty generous fairways hardly any trees at all but there is plenty of bunkers and a fair bit of water in play.

The toughest part I find is the greens, they are pretty big and they can tuck the pins in some nasty places.

Sorry guys. I've just broached the subject with my domestic director... I'm away from Sunday nightr again, and if I play in this it will be ashort journey to the local hospital instead of northern Germany.

Looking forward to this now, just gutted it aint the weather we had last week.

 

[richy]

Any idea what tee's we'll be playing off?

I would presume the yellows, could be a little too much off the whites, especially if it's windy.

looking at the shot saver the yellow may be a little short especially as this is supposed to be a competition, the blacks are probably a touch to far, the pros tees are defo out of our league, but the whites are good.

For example the 13th par 5

Thats a MISPRINT

The yellows on 13th are 491yds and NOT 419yds as depicted above

Thought u would have realised that , as its stated as a Par 5............

The YELLOWS at this course actually measure 6441yds

The WHITES at YOUR HOME COURSE measure 5969yds ( Crombie Course )

So I am confused
Rockcliffe yellows are short , yet are 500yds longer than YOUR Whites.....
What does this make YOUR course.....??


I believe BOZZA has already mentioned somewhere
At this time of year at Rockcliffe , the full course isnt always laid out
If we play Yellows , which we will be , on some holes we may well be teeing off from the whites
With the Yellows & Whites sharing the same tee

Believe you me , even off the Yellows this course will test you out

 

[bozza]

Yeah this time of year the actual tee markers get moved around to protect tees, so some of the yellows could be pushed forward on to the red tee boxes or pushed back on to the white or in some cases there has been the odd yellow tee marker actually on the black tee box.

Even off the ladies tees it's still 5812 yards so even off them it's still not that short a course.

If it had been summer and warm I would have maybe agreed to play it off the whites but this time of year it could just end up being a slog and no fun at all.

 

[Wayman]

To be honest dave it doesn't look that short to me
Must be expecting to shoot under handicap if its that short ........ We will see

 

[richy]

What format are we playing?

 

[bozza]

What format are we playing?

The people that are playing in the King of Kings are playing medal, I'm guessing whoever else isn't actually entered can play whatever format.

 

[2blue]

Looks as though I've missed a bit..... must have nodded off. Anyway well done Ricky... good man.... see the rest of youse Sunday:whoo:

Surely everybody needs to play the same format regardless of king of kings


I'm fine with stroke play. It's what I normally play anyway.
