Trump int'l / Carnoustie, April/May 2016

[Birchy]

Give us a write up on the other 17 holes, as well Ian.....

I think is a top three contender for "trump trip - ultimate gaffs".

Juniors 7 putt and RickG's 6 putt on a massive green, are the other contenders - anyone else?

Glyn helicoptered a club into the rough then battered his bag with the remaining head cover after skulling yet another terrible shot into a bunker at Carnoustie

Didn't someone hit out of a bunker, hit their trolley and have the ball come back into the bunker ? Ring a bell Peter ?

Also seem to remember someone very unluckily putted into a bunker. Fortunately not the same pot bunker his trolley ended up in.

Yes they did, a late entry.......

Carnoustie was fantastic, top 3 course for me behind Muirfield and Royal Birkdale. I would never tire of playing any of them.

Hogans Alley, driver, driver 3w 7i, 9i, 54, 54 and that'll do for me

Carnoustie is behind Turnberry for me, though I loved carnoustie.

RickG's 6 putt on a massive green

Please define what a putt is.

To be fair, you was that far away you needed a laser to get a yardage

Lol...not that one Stu....Rich is hinting at the 10th at Trump........I think only 2 of the 6 putts were actually on the green.......the others were attempts to try and get on it...

A shot played with a putter?

If only it were that obvious Kaz....most stats exclude any putts unless they are on the green........
Especially when it keeps me out of the top 3 comedy moments!

You might wiggle out on a technicality but, in your heart of hearts, you know the horrible truth.....

It was Peters fault. I was through the back of the green with the flag on the bottom tier....he said whatever you do don't leave it on the top tier.......so I didn't! the rest was just a comedy of errors, but sounds like Glynns got all 3 top spots sewn up..:rofl:

As Kaz said, a shot with a putter is a putt, ergo 6 putts, my friend.:thup:

Guilty as charged, I did say dont leave it on the the top tier, not knowing you would hammer it down about 4 other tiers.

The green (and surrounds) had more tiers than a wedding cake.:whoo:

Instead of helping yourself to free tees, pencils, etc. (As we did) listen to the starter say 'stay right on most of the holes & you won't go wrong'. Instead of hooking your 1st shot into Barrie Burn & asking 'is that alright?' Only to be met with a stonewall 'you can drop this side of the hazard. Have a good round gentlemen...' :swing:

How does this work in relation to double greens? Hit a beauty 5 iron rescue into 14 at Carnoustie (spectacles) only to find it barely holding onto the 7th green. My watch gave me 57yards to centre of 14th green. Sadly I'd left my bag some 70 yards away & only had my putter with me. Managed 55 yards with my 1st swing, followed by 5 foot & a knee-knocking 18" putt for bogey #Best3PuttEver
