Had our societys AGM on wed night and was re-elected as society sec ,

During the meeting we all bandied around a few names of clubs to play this yr ,So i left armed with a hit list to try and get , It was great booking this early got a pick of dates and times , Well recommended for anybody that has to do the same .

I've booked the following for next , Just wondering what People think ,

Corballis ( scramble in feb ) , Luttrelstown , Headfort new , Kclub - smurfit , Concra Wood , Heritage portlaoise(capts day ) Kclub Palmer ( presidents day) ,Druids Glen , Palmerstown House , Knightsbrook (november turkey shoot ) .

Got some great deals on the prices .

They all sound good ( except Corballis).

Where your society based it looks like it'll be a good year to join :-)

would have to agree, why Corballis?

Everything else is brilliant, the only course I would replace Corballis is Carton House (Monty Course).

So which soc is this?

the outing is in Feb , We start with a scramble on a links course , Having played seapoint for the last 2 yrs we decided to try somewhere else , Corballis is a grand course .

we played the monty last year , cracking course we just want to try somewhere different .

We are a scoiety that plays out of navan .

For February it would actually be a perfect choice. I've never seen rain out there.

i suppose the fact that you're society has a good few outings on good courses it fine,my local one however only have 6 outings and 1 is a scramble,i hate it

I wasn't overly gone on the idea in the first place , But it works very well , Great craic is had drawing the teams and in general the lads love it , Your right with the number of outings i wouldn't be that into it if we had 6 outings a year and had to put 1 aside for a scramble

weve also added slieve russell to the list of courses we play next year
cant wait:D

Macreddin is some track, it has just replaced concra wood as my favourite, if ya haven't played it yet treat yourself, might be a bit far to go from navan
.
That is a good strong list of courses .

I'm guessing that you get a special deal by playing both K Club courses. If not, how much is the Smurfit course costing you?

PLayed the Smurfit last year in a scoiety for €70 with a 3 course meal. The meal was in the Palmer Club House
