Anyone around limerick area Saturday lunch time for a round ?

Anyone interested in playing Moate on Thursday late afternoon? Had a look at online time sheet and its fairly empty.

Wichita Lineman · 10-07-2018 4:57pm

^ Course is in good nick Charlie - understandably a bit brown on fairways and rough - but the greens are good. There will be a few knocking about in the afternoon although timesheet doesn't always reflect that as unfortunately despite requests that they should use it some members just won't bother with the timesheet on Thursday. They just turn up and form an orderly queue if there are others ahead of them. I rarely get to play Thursdays but as it happens this week I might get out myself though it will probably be after 5.30

I hope you enjoy it if you go.

Thanks for that. Still haven't found a playing partner yet so if you're heading out give me a shout, it could be 5:30 by the time i get there now.

What's the last tee time for entering the open singles?

charlieIRL · 12-07-2018 3:59pm

I don't know guys, in the middle of the fine weather and two courses I've rang today to try get an open in have no afternoon bookings, all free. (Am on my own and looking to hop in on a line with someone)

What's up? Is there nobody out enjoying the dry weather golf?

Wichita Lineman · 12-07-2018 11:25pm

^ I heard you got out in Moate. How did you get on?

I wasn't there until 6 and I didn't even have the clubs with me but will try and join you another time.

Got on great thanks, hopped in with a 3 ball that were playing at 6 thanks to the very helpful lad in the pro shop

He rang the lads that were booked in to see were they playing the 18 and was it ok to go out with them. Very friendly bunch of lads.
Love the changes to the course, looks and plays a lot better since I was a member there. Sad to see some of the mature trees that were lost to the storm but the first is a much easier drive now!!

I played ok but some really silly scratches ruined my card. Like everywhere else, the course is rock hard so some bounces went into trouble and cost me to get out. I hit the slope at the left hand side of the 4th and the ball bounced down into the ditch and settled in between a few rocks! On the 6th hit a peach of a drive but got a massive bounce left and into the bushes, found the ball and had to hit backwards to get out. Same on the 15th, massive bounce to the right and into the water!! Course is in super condition considering the weather and the greens were fantastic……….. and fast!!

Won’t leave it as long to visit again.

Am looking at golfnet and brs for open comps, but are there many other sources of this info? Without looking at clubs individually. Am in Donegal the 17th, all I can see is the Rosapenna open week but it's a team event that day.

Gonna try and get into single stroke on Glashedy on 18th myself

Whenever I put info on golfnet only 18th showed up...annoying.

Strokes on Glashedy...hate strokes but tempting

Still not showing on mine oddly. It's probably a bit too far anyway, definitely one to keep an eye on next year though!

.and thus close to lose their amateur status surely, if they are good enough to win that they have probably won elsewhere, limit being $750...

"An amateur golfer must not accept a prize (other than a symbolic prize) or prize voucher of retail value in excess of $750 or the equivalent, or such a lesser figure as may be decided by the Governing Body. This limit applies to the total prizes or prize vouchers received by an amateur golfer in any one competition or series of competitions."

hey Slave1, I might be reading that rule different to you & possibly misinterpreting it... wouldn't a series of competitions be winning in 1 & qualifying for another i.e. linked/series of comps & winning prizes at each?

to me the rule wouldn't include the words "in any one" first... it would just read in all competitions if it was to be applied your way?

I'll just add, I've no dealing with the running of the comp, just putting it up here for anyone who may be interested. I'll also add I'm not saying I know the rules better than anyone else, it's just the way I read the rule you've posted

slave1 · 16-08-2018 10:31pm

I honestly don’t know, I’ve never had to worry about it (except that time I won a €2.5k all expenses golf trip to the States many moons back)

bigtimecharlie · 26-08-2018 11:37pm

I can't, but if anyone was considering it, give it a go.

Played it on the August bank hol weekend for the first time - Prob my favourite course I've played in years (albeit the weather was fantastic).

idle · 05-02-2019 3:46pm

Anyone fancy the Open Singles in Castlemartyr tomorrow Wednesday 6th Feb around 1:30pm ?

WHIP IT! · 13-02-2019 3:18pm

Apologies for (slight) thread hijack - just wondering if there will be a Scratch Cup thread here this year? Cheers...

dan_ep82 · 24-02-2019 7:16pm

Does anybody know if Luttrellstown has 18 holes for their Open?

I remember seeing something about 14holes last year in on of the threads

Heavily poleforked at the minute. Probably best avoid for a few weeks!

I played that week on the full 18 but good to know as I got a 4ball for the win that day.

Thanks but unfortunately I won't be around Sunday

dan_ep82 · 29-01-2020 5:41pm

Missed Corballis today and a bit stuck for a round tomorrow.

I can get out in Headfort before 9am tomorrow but would rather not be a one ball so any opens or someone looking for a casual tomorrow even somewhere else?

Johnny_Fontane · 27-07-2021 2:14pm

Two spots available at the Island in Donabate for a Semi open tomorrow, Wednesday at 3.40pm. Anyone interested, drop me a pm. €40

alxmorgan · 08-03-2024 2:29pm

Hi folks, is this thread still used or is there another (newer) for arranging games ?

Down in Cork for work on April 3rd/4th and looking to get a few evening holes in for anybody interested. thanks

Another shout for this folks if anyone around Cork fancies a game in the longer evenings next week
Looking like Wed (3rd) is most doable and weather decent (fingers crossed)

Quahog217 · 23-08-2024 11:36am

Will be in Cork on the 6th Sept. Would love to get out for 9 holes somewhere if possible. Might be difficult on my own,anyone k ow where might be quiet or want to join me for 9 holes?

conor222 · 24-08-2024 11:14am

Is anyone here up in Donegal? I'm headed up first week and a half of September and wouldn't mind trying out a course or two.

I'll be near Letterkenny but happy to travel a bit
