    Remind me what happens if you miss your time slot? Are all points gathered null and void?

    The only outing that I could make this year the weather made sure it was cancelled!! Unfortunately can't make this either and to make matters worse it's on one of my favourite courses. Enjoy.

    The next outing is on the same day as the Captains Prize in Ballykisteen so I'm not sure if I can make it. I might be able to play the Captains early and then try to make it to the Heritage for the last group though.

    Am definitely going to make this one. Really enjoyed playing it last year so hopefully, knowing the course better this time around will improve my pathetic scoring the last time...

    Permission slip submitted, can take up to 4 weeks to process due to "work to rule" in place!!! :D:D

    Hoping I'll be there will confirm the week of as usual!!

    With a full week of sun shine, the heritage will be in great condition. It will also be playing very hard. ie hard greens, bad bounces and trouble off the fairways! Hopefully Mother Nature will give us 2 weeks of good weather, then I'd never leave the country.

    Anyone who hasn't played the course is missing out. Lets hope we get over 30 playing and make a great day of it.

    Played the Heritage today and was hugely impressed with the course. Absolutely beautiful condition. Best fairways I've played on, ever. Our fourball all went home raving about the day and the course and they're a hard bunch to please. €25 for Open Singles. Incredible value. This is now my reference point when judging the quality of other courses. Enjoy it on the 20th.

    I suggested that once, she replied... "Yes there is, my husband"
    Hat tip to her in fairness.

    Hoping to be there but under pressure, if I am going, I'll be driving from Sligo
    If there's anyone around that neck of the woods lurking, I might "have to"'attend if I'm collecting someone ;)

    Sorry lads, going to have to pull out of this one, the sister-in-law 30th is on Saturday and shes decided to have a barbecue during the day instead of a party later on, as I was expecting. I'm raging, as I really want to play the Heritage.

    Lads, I'm out on this one too unfortunately. Need to head down south.

    Probably for the best anyway, myself and my golf clubs are fighting at the moment and don't think I would last 9 holes without doing a Keano! :pac:

    Of course, the more the merrier but please have a read of the society rules thread. Its costs a bit more for non members. Am not near a computer now but I'll send you on the link when I get to the laptop.

    Himself and FDP are trying the same strategy!

    Not too many like me who go out there expecting to win and then win to boot!

    Btw, Back playing off 3(2.5) now I am the man to beat for the Heritage! You better have all your A-games brought with you, b!tches!

    You better watch your clubs as there could be an accident beforehand;)

    Anyway to make it interesting you should disqualify yourself from this event just to allow the pack to bunch up a bit!!:D
