    And away we go to Round 6 already, I can't get over how quick this year is going by. With the GOTY points getting a shake up last time out here is your chance to get back in there, and back into the team for the Ryder Jug!!! Stay away from the Gee-Gees and concentrate on the Greens-Greens for this outing!

    I'm not sure if I have a course starting. I will know next week so should accept Teamer & then change or leave until I know?

    If no course, I really don't want to miss this one.

    Just accepted via teamer there Charlie :):(

    It went into spam despite me telling it that it's not spam previously. My phone was on the blink earlier so that explains that side of things.

    Sorry for the alarm.

    No worries dude. You changed it just as I was looking at it!

    Can I add one more thing, in the interest in fairness of the society, can anyone who's on a roll and their GUI handicap has dropped more than 2 shots below their BGS one please let me know? Fair play to FixdePitchmark and a few more who did last time out. Makes it fairer on everyone.

    It's metres to the front of the greens. And believe me it's not short. Playing really well at the moment. Hope it's in good nick the day you guys play. Hope ye have a good day. The food is top notch too.

    There is no course in the world measured to the front of the green, think about it for a moment, there is no logical reason for that to be the case.
    Although in saying that there are some courses that give their on course yardages i.e. markers discs on the fairways, sprinker head yardages etc. to the front, it's not very common and they are meant to be used in conjuction with a stroke saver.

    Isn't that what he meant. I would presume he would have assumed we would have knew what he was talking about.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 233 ✭✭yettie1701


    Anyway as I said its metres to the front.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,302 ✭✭✭bobster453
