I might show my face at a couple of events this year, depending on who else is going

The need for a baby sitter?
Or is that aimed at not wanting to play with some of us mere mortals ?

Hey Jeni, If he sets up an account (if he doesn't already have one) and registers his interest here, I think that's about the height of it.
All he needs to do is keep in touch, joining in on the forum isn't really a necessity but we probably won't talk to him if he doesn't

I'll be definitely trying to get out a few times with ye next year. Sounds like great craic according to ajcurry.Once nobody minds me escaping with the wooden spoon after every outing.

Usually played on one saturday every month once it gets going. Location changes everytime to ensure some people do not have to travel long distance everytime but it is normally kept fairly central.

Last Year some of the locations were The Heritage, Naas, Athlone, Mount Wolseley, Dundrum and Ballykisteen, Tipperary can't remember the rest atm.

Numbers were between 20-40 last year but would expect a significant increase in 2013

sounds good. not enough golf for me in 2012 but played last sunday and was plesantly surprised that i was striking as good as i had been before and only for a few stupid 3 putts I would have shot my handicap (13). It gave me the bug to play a bit more. off now to see if there is room on the time sheet for saturday

charlieIRL

Its great that there is some new and renewed interest in the society. As always, the days out are good crack and there is always a bit of banter before and after the round. As said above, locations are picked to suit the majority and to try to keep travel times / distances down.

There is a thread regarding the Rules and Regulations of the society here, have a look at it when ye get a chance.

And its not just fellas who are welcome, we need a few more ladies.

Mr. Larson

I might tag along to one or two of these events this year. Congrats for successfuly doing what many others have failed to do previously in getting it off the ground!

harry21

I think it was about this time last year I expressed my interest in joiing the club, which I did, only to be unable to go to any events!!

Probably saved myself some embarrassment. Fingers crossed I can get to at leat one event in 2013.

Jontronix

I would like to register my interest in joining the society. I play in one already but I can stand to play more golf.

3putt

FixdePitchmark
