The Island - Volunteers Required, Wed 3rd Oct

Kevinmarkham

The Island have offered me a 8.20am complimentary tee time for four on Wed 3rd Oct - so looking for volunteers.

No need for me to tell you how good this place is: Here are some photos.

Conditions:
Must be available to play and be at the course on time. I'd suggest getting there at least 30 minutes beforehand.

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 names will be picked, 1pm Friday September 28th.

gman127

I'd like to stick my name in. Off that week so would be great! Darren Gunning, thanks

mike12

Played it once 10 years ago and have very little recollection of it, it was before i fell in love with links golf, i would love the chance to play it if possible.

Count me in please, have never played the course before as generally only play away courses during open days or scratch cups and have never seen a suitable one on offer in The Island. Supposed to be a great track so would love the opportunity to play.

Golfgraffix

Fast becoming one my favourite links course, would love to put my name down but alas i have played it many times. Good luck to whoever gets the nod you will have a blast. Bring a spare pair of pants for the 14th, fairway is only a few yards wide.

I picked out a nice 3D view from our model we did from them to whet your appetite.

Kudos on the all the free rounds Kevin

lettuce97

A warning - the last time I was out there (a month or two now) the rough was incredibly thick, far moreso than in the past. Bring a lot of golfballs

DULLAHAN2

Mr. Larson

Hi Kevin, I'd love to be considered, count me in. Never played there and would love the opportunity.

Great photo Golfgraffix.

The best on the east coast so far for me. Have a great round lads. I had a 92 first time. Keep your eye on the ball when it hits rough. Hit an iron when you see an iron shot, don't take risks.

can't wait to play again. So many great holes, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 to start. The blind is not for all. Best of luck lads.

JD Dublin

Never played there, so I would like to add my name to the list for the draw.

Guys, you're up. We'll see you there for the 8.20 tee time - but if you could get there a bit before 8am that would be ideal. I'm in a green Golf. Can you PM me your mobile numbers. Thanks

GolfGraffix will be picking his three golfers so it should be a good group.

Kevin I'm sorry but things have changed since I threw my name in and I can't make it now. Sorry. Someone else will hopefully benefit from your generosity.

A great day was had today.have to say the course is amazing and very tough with narrow fairways thick rough and fast greens.
It was my first time playing a links and I struggled bigtime tried playing my normal game which isn't suitable for links but it didn't stop me enjoying the course.was great to see the shot making of Kevin mick & Tom lads with plenty of experience of links golf.was brilliant watching mick putting from 40-50 yards short off the green and some of his drives were monsters especially the 18th.great round by Kevin with 34 points including a lovely birdie on 14
Many thanks Kevin for the opportunity and was a pleasure playing with urself mick and Tom

mike12

Really enjoyable today tough but fair course in cracking condition. Its definitely the best links in Dublin. Thanks for the opportunity Kevin and good to meet Tom and Thomas.
