Playing myself this weekend in the National Scramble Qualifying in Cork at Kilmichael. First time playing in a P&P scramble so looking forward to it. 26 teams with 10 to qualify for the finals. Anyone else playing in the National Scramble qualifiers?. Good mix of handicaps playing in the Cork qualifiers so it will be interesting to see the mix of Senior, Intermediate or Junior teams that get through. I think a team of high handicapers will be hard to beat if they play well enough as any all senior teams would have to hit the ground running and dyke their way around the course to make up for the handicap differneces

Dromcill wrote: » Nice to see a P&P forum Our team of 3 for the National Scramble have handicaps of 9/9/7 so we have plenty of shots to play with. What kind of score would be considered a good score in a P&P scramble for 36 holes.

I remember the first couple of years out of adults I took great pleasure as an inter at knocking seniors out of the qualifying and running a couple of others close. Remember Campions Wigertoods? A miracle chip and a miracle putt or you were gone!

I qualified for quite a few National M/P as an inter.I think the most memorable was beaten Harkins in cy on the final night.(I had only joined the club a month previous and was playing off 6 at the time.) In a bit of trouble at the moment.I have only played about 3 rounds in the last couple of months.Had a bad sprain in my wrist and still hasn't healed yet.Need to get it sorted quick or I'll be watching from the sidelines all year.:(:(:(

DugOut wrote: » Let me tell you, Wigertoods, it's tough on the sidelines!! I hope you get back into it soon. As for the scramle, I thnk -30 will be the cut off in Dublin but then again as Hitman said if the wind blows and all that. I think its 21 quailifiers in Dublin, is it not? Is Loughlinstown in good condition?
