You were up and away Mark.... as far as I can see 'twas the group behind you that had issues (ie. slow)... don't know why... may never know now. Happens every Sat somewhere... At Tesco's as well.... how do you stop it

The offer of free beer at the bar if the round is completed within a certain time, or someone following behind with a cattle prod or the positive reinforcement stick to chivvy people along that start to dawdle

The offer of a free beer at Rockliffe would have everyone round in in less than 3 hours the price they charge for a pint!

Don't expect much change from a tenner for 2 pints.

What format we playing, I lose track, is it paired up 1 v 1 and matchplay, or best man wins with a stableford score? OR something else, like who can drink the most and wait the longest before going to the netty?

 

[moogie]

Pretty sure
We all just tee off,
put a few numbers on cards,
and try to get finished before its PITCH BLACK DARK outside

 

[moogie]

Seriously though

Im presuming its Strokeplay

As other regional qualifiers played this way

Yes its a Medal round.... twas what I played at Woodhall. Very worrying format I must say as some of the bunkers there had escalators, others, steps with hand-rails & some were so deep they could have done with lights :clap:

 

[Wayman]

Medal. Real mans game no points system

 

[bozza]

I presume we are playing off the tips too.............

Not sure as yet which tees it will be but it is straight medal format to tie in with the rules of the overall comp.

I'll be posting the draw on Sunday.

 

[moogie]

Off the tips.........??
So nett 80 wins.....!!

I'd imagine it's yellows
Unless they allow us to play the whites

Anything further back would be suicidal and not very enjoyable for most golfers

 

[Wayman]

And slow us down haha

7th Par5 553yds off the whites and 601yds of black and 664 of the comp tee Off the black it looks like you need around a 200yds carry just to reach the fairway.

Normally during winter/spring they only have the red/yellow and white tees on but sometimes move them around to rest tee boxes, so sometimes some of the yellows are on the reds or whites and the whites sometimes pushed back to the blacks.

I'd personally say off the yellows would be fine as the whites could be a bit brutal, if some are pushed back.

Wait till you see some of the gold tees! The 15th is a easy 243 yard par3 with water all down the right and bunkers guard the front left of the green.

To lay up short of the bunkers

Actually looking forward to this got a few big courses next couple of weeks

The 13th that will be, doesn't give the carry to the fairway on the course planner I have but I reckon it's around 250 yard just to reach the fairway!
