Boards GS - 31 January - The Heritage

03-01-2015 10:40am#1Well it's day 3 of the new year and I hope you are all sticking to your resolutions. I've not made any except to play as much golf as possible
And what a better way to kick off the year than the Boards GS Captains Drive In at The Heritage in Killenard
The Heritage is a cracking golf course designed by my childhood hero and host venue to the 2007 Seve Trophy and of course host venue to the victorious Boards team in the 2013 Ryder Jug
So the plan is to brush off the winter cobwebs from the golf clubs and shoes, have a bit of fun, welcome new members, and kick the year off in style. The format is to play a 2 man scramble. Both players drive off, take the best ball, and both play from there and continue like that till the ball is in the hole. We will draw teams from two pots, high and low handicaps, in order to make things as fair as possible.
It will be a shotgun start, and Tee Time is 10:30. We do not have the course to ourselves so guys I advise on being there nice and early, because you might have to get out to your allocated hole and if you know the course, you know there are not very many near the clubhouse!
The green fee will be €35 for everyone if you are a member of the society or not. Although I would advise you to sign up on the day, cause it will be a great year of golf. We will be sending Teamer messages out soon, so make sure you have the app on your phone and sign up good and early. Good Luck guys and play well in 2015
Directions to the Heritage13

Hopefully nothing unforseen crops up in the meantime and the cold snap is just a chilly memory.
Nice one, especially as my first game with the society was with your good self 0 -

Right guys, less than a week to go now, so it's about time we laid down a few rules for the outing, nothing to serious, just some simple housekeeping.
We will go out in fourballs, it's a shotgun start, so make sure you are early
2 man scramble
2 pots, higher and lower handicaps, a team mate drawn from each pot
Both tee off and choose the best ball, both play from there, choose the best ball etc. etc. and continue till it's in the hole
Strokes
1/4 of combined handicap. decimals count.
Each player must have 5 tee shots counted
Long drive hole to be decided on
Nearest pin hole to be decided on
best of luck everyone and have fun0 -

All sounds good Seve.
I'm assuming its going to be a random draw, or will it be captain picking pairs, 1 from each pot?
Also, will just be a split down the middle based on the bodies that are there on the day? Looking at the handicap index on here, you might have to be fairly low to qualify in the low group.
I see the number is at 26 now at the moment. 2 more & we've a nice even 28 for pairings.
yr.no long term forecast for Saturday in Portlaoise not looking too bad at the moment.0 -

If Kieran can't go I'll take you up on that offer as your only a few minutes away from me I can park in navan somewhere
How would the heritage rate in terms of playability, harder than Headfort New ?0 -

Yeah i'd love that Kieran, thanks. I'll sort you out for some of the cost.
I'll leave the trolley at home to make some room in the car. I'll send you on a PM with my details. Thanks again. 0 -
