RickG Memorial Trophy Day (Coventry Golf Club)

[Fish]

Robin I'm not sure about getting ahead of our tee times if we are playing 4 balls at 8 minute intervals. We use 10 minute intervals for 3 balls in our medals and the course flows much better when spaced out a bit more. I would suggest that if at all possible the times are increased to 10 minute gaps :thup:

All our comps are 8 minutes, it works fine, it’s a generous par 5 start, even with the odd slice or hook, it never really runs late, if it does, it soon rights itself.

The tee times are now submitted so the members are aware of how long the 1st tee has been booked for, it is what it is now.

The gap should be the time it takes to play the shortest hole, in our case it is the 2nd which, as a 3 ball, should take 10 mins. Therefore we set tee intervals at 10 mins for medals - works a treat, rounds are usually in the area of 4 hrs with a stop at the half way hut.

Fish, Who from the club is in my group? Started off with the Captain, next was the pro as Captain had other duties to perform, now back to the Captain.....confused.com!

It’s not the captain, it will be either the Pro or our assistant Pro, which depends on how he does in the Euro Pro, I simply cut & pasted an older list, that’s all.

It would be nice to get a 12 a side, so come on lets hear from you.

I think most/all northerners have signed up so will keep the floaters floating for now, in case we get a few more, and if we get an influx of southerners, may put Midlanders in with us.

£10 in per person - if your team wins you get massive bragging rights and a £10 beer token, if you lose, prepare for pelters!!!!

All in a good cause.:thup:

 

[Deleted Member 1156]

Right then southerners, we have 3 nights of hard training then we kick ass!

Start on half pints of shandy and build it up from there :thup:

 

[Crow]

If you're getting really desperate I'm up for it.

Born in Leicestershire, lived in Leicestershire since then, exciting huh?

We've booked the day off so it will take as long as it takes. Leave poor old Fish alone until Friday on the 1st Tee, then we can really screw up his round :rofl:

It's alright he'll go off like a train, lose it in the middle and then rump home to finish mid field

I'm working on some different tactics, I trialed them on Sunday with Gary (Region3) and started like a knob, played OK in the middle, then still romped home, why can't we play just 12 holes, I'd be a Cat 1 :smirk:

You could start the first '9-Hole Golf Meet'...…. more time for Curry & drinking... what its all about anyway.. thought you'd have come up with it already!! :rofl::rofl:


Sorry I'm not there... have a great day everyone ….. &.... Well done Robin!!

 

[Val]

Gutted I've had to call off due to a work commitment at Manchester GC, hope you all have a superb day

 

[Fish]

I’ve arranged with the kitchen that bacon rolls & coffee will be available from 9am, plus, the kitchen can do full (small & mega) breakfasts from that time also.

Any food other than the bacon rolls will be cash over the bar, there is no discount though for the bacon roll if not taken as that was all in the package price that I’ve paid five and subsidised.

How many non-playing partners of players are coming?

Do they want to eat afterwards with us all pre the speeches & presentations ?
