NEW - Mount Juliet Volunteers Required, Sunday 16 Sept

Kevinmarkham · 11-09-2012 10:44am #1

Guys, a new date for this.

Mount Juliet have offered me a 2.40pm complimentary tee time for four on Sunday 16th September - so looking for 3 volunteers.

As before, the details are:
Your handicap is irrelevant - if you can hit a ball, stick your name down.

Conditions:
Must be available to play and be at the course on time. I'd suggest getting there at least 30 minutes beforehand as it's worth touring the place and the practice facilities.
I'm looking for golfers who have not had the privilege of playing the venue before.
Must be prepared to spend half an hour in the bar afterwards!

If you can make the tee time for sure, then reply to this Thread and three names will be picked, 1pm Friday September 14th.

heavyballs · 11-09-2012 4:34pm

Another course I've played a lot so leave me out,very generous offer as always.

11-09-2012 4:36pm

I have played Mount Juliet numerous times but not for nearly five years so i would be interested but only if someone has dropped out on you late in the day, its less than thirty minutes from Waterford so could get there at short notice.

spacecoyote · 11-09-2012 4:37pm

unfortunately I can't make this. Would have loved to. A weeks more notice and I could have done some shifting of schedules around the place.

Thanks again for the offer though, very generous indeed!

Think I'm gonna pull out of this one Kevin, good friend of mine took his life this week. My head or heart wouldn't be in it. Am not great company at the moment.

Lads, you're on the tee at 2.40 on Sunday. If you can't make it, please let me know so I can pick someone else... otherwise, see you there beforehand. Good practice facilities (even if the 18 hole putting course is closed at present) so worth getting there a bit early.

Some photos of Mount Juliet to whet the appetite

Excellent. Thanks very much. Can't wait

I'll be there for around 1ish. Hopefully the weather will be better than forecasted.

bigtimecharlie · 14-09-2012 4:08pm

Brilliant. Can't wait. See you there.

staker · 14-09-2012 9:22pm

That'll be two happy Cork lads going up the M8 on Sunday! Enjoy, ye lucky sods!

whizbang · 14-09-2012 9:44pm

WooHoo!! Thanks Kevin.

I'll offer to drive, if that any good for you..

Reganovski · 17-09-2012 12:05pm

Just a quick note of thanks to Kevin for yesterday.
What looked like a terrible day weather wise turned out to be a beautiful evening.
Pity the golf didnt match the perfect weather and the great course

Despite all the rain in the morning, the course was in perfect condition while the greens
might have been on the slow side but still the ball rolled perfectly.

Highlights of the round included:
1. 4 perfect tee-shots on the 4th. I think Kevin has a photo

2. whizbangs birdie on 11, which was met with the loadest cheer of the day and celebration to boot!
3. Kevins eloquent birdie on 13, index 1, which he played immaculately!!!! (They'll never know!!)
4. My consistant "left" play.....except for 17th where a nice drive, 8 iron to 20 feet which was promptly followed with a 3 putt for par!

5. bigtimecharlies wet gear which had to worn throughout the good weatherbecause he was pesimistic about the weather (and we'll all knew he was in commando underneath!!

)

Once again, a big thanks to Kevin, (for the freebee!:)), bigtimecharlie and whizbang for making it a most enjoyable day out.

whizbang · 17-09-2012 11:10pm

17th where a nice drive

Doesnt even begin to describe it!
Very enjoyable day, thanks again to all.

Any comments?

I couldn't figure out why I was hitting everything left but looking at the video, it looks like I'm aiming way right.

You beat me to it! Didn't think you were aiming too right at all... but unable to offer any intelligent comment on why stuff's going left on you. Maybe it's a Frankfield thing!

Possibly is a Frankfield thing alright......adjusting for the slopes!!!

Kevin, note in your signature you have an extra "www" on your blog link

bigtimecharlie · 23-09-2012 4:16pm

With a new B/B provider so eventually getting back online.

Thank to Kevin and the guy's for a great day out. The weather on the way up prompted the wet gear being on, always prepared. Played well on the front 9, the course lenght was my undoing. Can't complain otherwise.
