    What I am watching are the people you would have chalked down as dead certs not being in the top 10 at the moment: Kiers, Ballyk, Rikand etc

    It's all to play for and should hot up nicely!!

    Well at least you know it's the best 5, keep playing as I am sure you will be contending soon!

    Thanks. Have to miss the next one, but then I'm planning on winning the final three outings.

    Sincerest apologies for my no show on Saturday Folks ,

    Had to do a Job in Dublin on Friday and ended up getting caught in traffic because of the One Direction concert, actually was 1.5Hours getting from St Vincents Hospital to M50 ,

    Decided to park up at a Friends house , ended up going for one pint with him , ended up in Buck Whaleys till 05.30AM , not getting home till 6.30 ! ( So Drunk got a Taxi to Newbridge )

    Had a lift organised for the morning so I said I would struggle through the golf , my partner in crime landed at 9.15AM to pick me , rang me about 15 times but never knocked on the door :mad::mad::mad: , hence me missing the outing and only waking up about 12,

    Sorry Cathal and the lads :(:o

    Hi All
    I see i have 80pts after my first outing, did i get that just for turning up or my good looks?? :)
    Seriously tho, if its not too much hassle or technical, any chance someone could post the system of awarding points, not that i will need them but just for curiosity sake
    Cheers

    We have a matchplay event at the end of the year against another society, known as the "Ryder Jug" Our team is made up of the top 10 in the Golfer of the Year and 2 Captains picks. After each event, points are awarded from first place to last and the best 5 rounds count at the end of the year.
    The matchplay has been brilliant crack the last few years and is the perfect end to the season.

    With the large turnout at the weekend there was lots of work for SSBOB to do to allocate points to update the GOTY table, few movers in the top 10 (to which i'm holding onto by the skin of my teeth!!)

    Here is the latest table for ye to analyse and plot your tactics for Gowran!!!

    Lads watch out, I'm currently in 37 position. Hot on the tails of the top ten. :) I have my eye on 450 points to qualify.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 202 ✭✭3putt


    Up to 5th. Nice jump happy with that.charlie what date did you say the Ryder jug is on?
    I only ask because I thought you said it was the 11sep so that means there's only 2 more rounds for people to pick up points cos captains day is after it and won't count. Am I right?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 892 ✭✭✭Ben1977


    3putt, I think it's the 11th of Oct. The 11th of sept is a Thursday. Think we played the jug in Oct? Could be wrong on the info above


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 7,023 Mod ✭✭✭✭charlieIRL


    Booked for 11th october alright. I'll be starting a new thread on it and captains day shortly.

    Sorry thought you had said September on Saturday. Knew that couldn't of been right.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 967 ✭✭✭Reganovski


    Just realised that I'm gonna miss Mount Juliet :(
    I'll be arriving back from Portugal that day...


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 7,023 Mod ✭✭✭✭charlieIRL


    Apologies for the delay in getting the scores to SSBOB late last night and thanks to him for revising them straight away.

    Without further delay..........here is the GOTY standings after Gowran Park at the weekend.

    I'd put you as favourite to pip me Stevie, a friend has decided to get married for the next outing, the inconsiderate B :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,736 ✭✭✭ssbob


    It really is hotting up and not the foregone conclusion we all thought it was going to be after Macker won 2 in a row.

    Keep going lads as the Ryder Jug is a great event to play in and I am sure you are all looking forward to the Captains day in MJ............even if you haven't hit a ball straight all year, there is still time to shine to give Charlie some decisions!!

    well you will know soon whether or not he/she is a true friend, as a true friend would understand that you might be late to their wedding due to an important golf game that has been scheduled months and months ago!!!!

    i think i need at least a top 5 finish (will bump me up buy 60 points) in one of the last 2 events to qualify, but who knows, I'm only a few points behind ya ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,736 ✭✭✭ssbob


    Because it's the best 5 counting, I am looking at it again and I reckon 450 guarantees a spot alright.

    I hope Roscrea has a good attendance, as we don't want Kiers47 sneaking in for an easy win 30 mins from home:pac::pac::pac:

    PS: Stevie, allegedly;) "Someone heard Charlie saying he is open to bribery"

    Isn't that what I told you. ;)

    Looks like I need a half decent performance and should make it.

    Well done to Reganovski catching the lads. Lot to be said for hitting the ball miles and where he wants- good wedges and good putting. :)

    I just had a large pony and used lots of paper :eek:
    Isn't that what I told you. ;)

    In fairness you did call it 2 months ago.

    It will be close cause there are 4 guys in the top 10 who still only have 4 qualifying rounds, so they will all be bound to increase their score even by small numbers, once they play in one of the final 2 games


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,736 ✭✭✭ssbob


    Reganovski has already said he can't play Captains day which is unfortunate as he has put in a sublime display of golf on his last two outings.

    I am also definitely out for captains with my brother deciding(2 years ago) to get married the day I booked the captains prize for :eek::eek::eek::eek:

    And more than likely I am not playing Roscrea.

    I really love this time of year when the permutations come into it!!:D:D


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 7,023 Mod ✭✭✭✭charlieIRL


    sorry lads, made a boo boo with the scores. We has 4 lads finish on 37 points, some with same back 9, same front 9 and i got mixed up on countbacks. Makes very little difference to GOTY but we want to have it right.

    Apologies.
