    What's the furthest west or north west the society has come in 2013?
    I'd play in one or two in the future with maybe 1 1/2 hours drive being my max.

    Imagine we'd get to Athlone at some stage.

    But whatever way it has worked out , the majority are from east , midlands and south.

    The outings tend to be in midlands/ south west / near Dublin.

    There will be a thread in 2014.

    Shortest I have driven this year to a boards event has been 1hr 15mins, will be driving 2hrs 40 tomorrow to get to Palmerstown. I guess it's the nature of the beast!

    We generally try to keep them as near as possible to the Motorway Network though!

    I've played ballyliffin, driving up and down the same day 3hours one way and it was too far tbh.
    I drive for a living 12 hours on the road wouldn't be off putting to me tbh but for me anyway somewhere less than 3 hours one way is too far without overnighting.
    I'm sure ye must have noticed the same?

    2 hours is more than enough to drive for a round of golf unless its all motorway.

    I have defo noticed the same, but it's bad enough getting written approval from the other half for a days golf not to mind an overnighter :D

    Its great to play the new courses and meet the faces from here though!! Thats why I play!

    Believe me, I would too, I was barely in the door having just driven down from Dublin the night before to drop herself and the kid off with them. Hit the road at 6am only to return at 6pm the next day.

    Has anyone worked out who is mathematically guaranteed to be on the team ?

    Or who has a mathematical chance of making the team without the need for a captains pick ? :)

    Remeber Denis and Keano can't make it either so i think that means that the Top 7 are guaranteed with anyone from positions 11-23 having a "mathematical" chance of making it.
