Got absolutely no problem if anyone wants to arrange matches to settle old scores from previous meets - will then make the draw for the rest of us easier!!
Royal St Georges - Tuesday 23rd February 2016
- Thread starter wookie
- Start date
As were all being transparent, I have absolutely no problem playing with ANYONE, I would never allow any personal differences to affect or create a problem on or off the golf course on a golfing meet.
But I think it's sad when PM's are flying about with preferences, it's not what meets are about IMO, there about putting names and faces to those not seen before and meeting the real people behind the forum persona on and off the course, what's the point of playing with the same people you could play with at almost any time.
I personally think it starts to get all too clicky otherwise and that's not the impression these meets should portray, just my honest opinion of course, no offence meant to anyone. 😉

Naw, it was that twit Wookies fault, I never know the scores in a match, he was my partner and proffered his hand after a magnificent par plucked from potential disaster and I assumed that he knew the match situation !

I'm staying out of this ... and trusting to luck that i don't get sent out as a 1-ball.
I know many of you are staying over Monday night so will probably have your brekkers at your digs. Is anyone booking into RSG to have a full breakfast at the clubhouse?

Robin, I appreciate the honesty and took no offence; like you I look forward to meeting other people and putting names to faces, but as it looks like we are going to treble the normal Monday night numbers in The King's Head and the same 4 miscreants from last year's RSG match are present and almost correct, and at the same venue, I didn't feel anyone would be desperately offended at a rematch as there would be a good few hours opportunity to meet the real people Monday night. My apologies if it did; not my intention to offend anyone except perhaps Mr. D…………… :ears:
I look forward to discussing everybody's favourite golf course on Monday night, I can possibly guess somebody's…….
(for any Forum Meet virgins who feel this last comment is cliquey & that they've missed out on an in joke, posts #109, #111 & #112 should give you a clue!

Just my luck; the tour organiser & a self-employed business owner and apparently neither of them can count……...

That's good - I was neither the tour organiser or self employed!
IT must have been your fault!

You'll be fine mate, you won't be in a 1-ball, don't take too much notice of the banter, sounds worse than it is until you've met us.
Haven't heard of anyone else looking to breakfast at RSG. As an alternative if it doesn't screw up your timings, speak to the Kings Head & join the rest of the oiks for breakfast there, it's only 10 minutes away.

I have zero issues if people want to speak to the organiser and ensure they don't play the course with me - there will be people I don't wish to spend a round with. It's one of the best courses in the world so would want to play in company I know I will enjoy or new guys never played a round with

Now there's a thought. Calling in at the KH could be a possibility. Will ponder it.
Pretty sure they'd do breakfast only amongst us as plenty of us are staying there, they'll want the repeat business.

Can't believe I am writing this but I agree with Robin.
Everyone in the hat and take your chances. Most of us will have fallen out the night before any way, so it should add spice to the the round.

I don't recall RSG offering any breakfast option

I take your point that you may not want to play with someone you don't get on with, but I don't believe you should be organizing your own fourball. It is a forum meet, which means it should be a random draw. Games can be arranged between mates at other times. but this is not the forum spirit as far as I am concerned.
Aplogies to those that think differently, but just my opinion.

Not organising my own fourball - agree on that.

I'll be having a light breakfast at The Kings Head - don't want to be too full for the RSG lunch!! Should be a great couple of days - really looking forward to it.
