Thats will be a tough one Gary, its always hard to predict the cut in dublin.

Our qualifying is in Tullamore. William Buckley is in automatically. We have 8 to qualify.

On a purely philosophical note, I really think this will be one of the best years for pitch and putt in years, all the championships are in fantastic club/courses, the players are more evenly spread, if we can get even a modicum of decent weather we should be in for a corker of a year,

Hitman you have a good draw. I'd be surprised if you weren't playing on the last night for a place in the finals. DCBS is a tough course. Very open, greens are tricky. There should be more qualifying on there as its neutral. I'd advise practising it, cause if the wind blows well

Derek Courtney is in a tough draw, I'd say half of ireland is hoping he's knocked out!
Did you see the Cork draw? JJ Walsh has Chris Scannell.

Jaysus thats a terrible draw for both walsh and scannell, i say courtney be up for it, casue the finals be in his place, have ur draw been done yet

The course is in excellent condition, much improved even over when I last played there about 8 years ago.

The greens on the back nine were being cut when I arrived and I played three rounds, a +4, an even and a +1. As you can tell, it wasnt playing that hard but the greens were watered between my second and third round which really made putting harder.

I see that the senior leinster qualifying is there on the 27th, I'll hopefully head up to watch so if any of you guys are around for it I might see you there.

Picked up some Commandos on Elvery Sports online, I think I could use all the backspin I can get for the next few months!

Theres a golf shop down the road from shandon, he's cheap and tell him u joined shandon he might be able to do u a deal on stuff - if u need directions let me know, he plays pitch and putt out of ierne in drumcondra mick his name is

Mister Sifter

Didn't have enough time for a few holes after work last night so went for a bash at P&P instead. Managed to get 36 holes in. 3 over for the first 18 and then 2 under for the second round.

RE Shandon: Draupnir, do you have to be a member to have a game or would i be able to drop round and pay on the night? Might head down for a game one night this week. Also, how much would it be?

It gets worse in Meath.... Downes, Farrelly, Wally Sheridan, Pat McBride, Damien Mullranney, all in the one group.

Our draw was done. Very straightforward draw, the only tough match potentially is Billy Buckley and Larry Maher.

As far as I know the two cork lads meet on the last night. I'll check again though,

Getting worse i think! Greens had been cored and heavily sanded so the ball was going all over the place. Really enjoyed it though, going back tonight to see if i can get 54 holes in.

I think its €4 green fee if you are with a member. Since I only joined there on Sunday I am not entirely sure of my privileges at this point, next time I'm up I'll have a chat with one of the more experience lads and if its cool with them for me to sign you in then by all means you can come up with me.

I'd advise just dropping up one evening that you want to play though, they are very welcoming up there and I am sure would allow you to play a round if you are thinking about joining, there was a very good crowd there last night with the good weather.

Just looking about those site links... Shandon Park is quite close to me. Only just down the road in fact. The one in Finglas is also close enough by, but there's not much info on it online.

Might head down to Shandon sometime soon for a game and check it out.

I take it only very few clubs are linked to the PP union? The likes of elmgreen and tolka valley courses (the only ones i know!) aren't listed anywhere.

There not part of the union alright
www.dublinboardpp.ie this will give u information

Is Tommy still playing in Shandon?

He would take 2 practice swings and hit it on the 3rd with little or no stopping between swings.

Yeah Tommy is still playing in shandon.Doesn't play in as many championships now but still well capable of scoring.

@Graeme/Draupnir
To play in shandon as a non ppui member you need to be accompanied by a member of shandon and pay the green fees afaik.
