The North is the Ryder Cup Course.
Yeh I figured that out not long after. We are going ahead with doing green fees and getting the buggy just for comfort purposes and in case weather isn’t great.
If I'm reading that correctly, you would like to play the Open and rent a buggy if reasonable?
I could be wrong but I assume you would need a medical exemption if you wanted to use a buggy during a comp...
So, with whatsapp down, i can't ask my regular clique to clarify. Figured this is as good a thread as any to get the answer.
With the rebranding of the courses in the K Club, which of the 2 is the Ryder Cup course, the North or South?
Played recently and it was €20 per buggy.
Does anyone know the price of a Buggy in The Heritage?
Open Singles is €40 per person on Mondays but we can get Green Fees for €55 per person with a buggy included. If the buggies are €30 or less we might as well play the comp. Can't seem to find the price online.
God I hate this website
Can't delete? Lol
That’s just defaulting to the usual home page results for my club though! Dunno if it’ll show there as it was a scramble ha
I'd say it'll show up on this link in the next day or two hopefully ;)

Someone got lunch on their mind 🤣
Anybody know if there’s a way to check the South Munster Seniors golf results? Father won yesterday in Cahir and I wanted to check the results.
About 2 years ago I think when they started applying common sense to the rule book.
While watching the Ryder Cup one of the golfers on the Sunday nearly had a double tap (hitting the ball twice on the same shot) so to speak and the commentator said, it would have been ok as the rules have now changed. I wasn't aware of the rule change. When did it come in to play?
Try to relax your wrists on the down stroke only so it doesn't feel like a noodle on the way back.
I find I hit more on line putts this way compared to a strong grip throughout but putting is very player specific
I've always been told, and have heard it countless times on TV about how your putting grip should be soft, how you shouldn't grip it hard, etc. The problem I have when I do this is that the club feels loose in my hands, and swings in my hands during the backswing, leading to inconsistency at impact.
If I grip it a bit tighter, where it doesn't feel loose in my hands, I sometimes get this yippy thing where my wrists twist right at impact. It's bloody annoying!! It only happens when I have my right hand below left, which is my preferred way. How firmly do you grip the putter?
Anyone buy off golfdiscount.com
Prices seem great, especially the tp5 practice balls. I assume i pay 23% vat on purchase but that it. Also some of the clubs are a lot cheaper than they would be in ireland. Am i missing anything else?
He has a very unlikeable personality in that case!
Poor choice of verbs, different "personalities", think you know what I mean
He's not really a character though. He comes across as someone trying too hard to be the tough guy
He is no someone I would call a character he is just a moan, and a bit of a bully. He also seems to have no love for the game which is fine but like I don't want to watch someone like that.
It's good to have characters in the game, beats robotic boredom
He's more unlikeable than Bryson
He comes across as an absolute twat
Interesting interview with Brooks, thinks he can catch Nicklaus in majors and speaks about Phil's gamesmanship in the PGA.
No mention of Bryson though, which is strange as it's a pretty open wide-ranging interview. Wonder why he or the interviewer considered it off the table, maybe because of the Ryder Cup, which he isn't particularly a fan of with all the team meetings and whatnot.
Ask and they shall deliver!!
I was reading an article on this subject recently. In Ireland there is only Humm (which used to be called Flexi-Fi) who provide this service, the main player in this space is Klarna which you'll see all over the UK sites offering the same option as payment. In a previous role I had some dealings with Flexi-fi and found them very poor to work with in terms of integrating their service to our eCommerce sites so I'm not that surprised the uptake is relatively low compared to other places. It is available in some B & M stores where I assume there is a portal the seller accesses to process and application. O' Dwyers in Kilkenny offer it in store only but advertise on their website.
Klarna is expanding into Ireland in 2022 so I'd expect that to become a much more readily available option for people soon. Only thing with Klarna and that sort of thing is if you are spending €1-1400k on a new set of irons you'll want to be fitted for them and I don't think they offer that service on custom clubs so to me not of much use. Maybe if you knew exactly the specs you want it would work out ok though. Its certainly cheaper than putting it on the credit card and paying it back though so if you know what you want its a great option. I'd probably only consider it for things like a putter or maybe an electric cart personally but not sure I like the idea of a 12 month loan for something relatively small like that.
Have to say, I'm a little bit surprised and a bit disappointed at the lack of sellers that don't offer periodic payment for Clubs
I'd imagine there's a fair whack of people who baulk at the idea of paying €450 for a new Driver or €900 for Irons etc, however a 12-month payment period for them would likely encourage quite a few sales. Even just thinking Marketing-wise, '€38 per month for 12 months' sounds better to many than '€450'
I do see McGuirks use a 3rd party crowd (Humm) but it looks like nobody else in Ireland does it. I can't imagine setting it up would be too much of a nightmare. I suppose the turn-off might be non-payment of something that has €200 left to be paid off mightn't be worth chasing so there might end up being dead-money there but still
Probably is a Business opportunity really
