    On the road home after a disappointing day on the course for myself. First out with the intention of getting an early lead which we did but we couldn't hold onto it. First time we were behind was the 16th. 3putt played very well I just didn't back him up when it mattered.
    Tullamore is a smashing course by the way. Definately worth another trip next year.
    I enjoyed my first Ryder Jug, hopefully I'll make it next year. Apologies I couldn't wait on but a 2 hour trip and the last group were miles behind :)
    Hopefully we won :)
    Thanks to 3putt today for putting up with me and all the lads that put in a great effort into the society each year.

    See ye next year.

    Hard luck team boards but congrats to technodub and his team on the win. He sounded very determined to win this year! Lots of very close matches this year by the looks of it - one drawn match and 3 1 up games suggests every match was hard fought. Fair play to both teams.

    Is it not one win each & a draw since its inception ?

    I walk into team room - not a latte macchiato ready for me , nobody even stood up to greet me.

    I wouldn't mind - the limo that the captain had not sent for me, never turned up - and to make things worse , I have to park miles from the clubhouse with nobody to take my bag.

    A sign of things to come. :P

    Fantastic day - a two day event would actually be class. I've only ever played in something like that twice and is another type of pressure all together. Loved it.

    Tiger was a legend - so cool , I nearly felt like kicking him the arse at one stage - but when he changed to the real lay up at 15 - I could have kissed his arse. Great win.

    At the start I was way too pumped - from perfect positions - i was just hitting the irons miles - but as all great teams do , Tiger was over to get me to "club down by one". And this got me in the zone for 6 or 7 holes.

    Great course , great day , great competition, and a fantastic year for a great captain.

    I would have loved if Charlie had - holed the winning putt - but not to be , it just seems an outrageous twist of fate, that a boards member made a fantastic par and up and down on last to win for the Reps. Class win for them - and in front of the most critical of all golf audiences - Board's golf **** :D

    Any chance of me joining their society ( I could have no option) - or him joining ours :D

    They are heading off to Old Head next week - nice bunch of lads , games played in great spirit.

    It has been a blast of a year - well done pete getting trophy there to hand over - it would have been embarrassing if we didn't have it.

    Thanks again to all the team and Charlie - cool bunch of golf nuts.

    So off to dream it all up again - perhaps the story is over , but never say never.

    So my first full year with the nut jobs that are boards golf society is over.
    Great courses great company great craic.
    My goal was to make the ryder jug team and did that, even though today I can't say I played well. Our Opponents were just too strong and after going 3 down very early it was going to be tough. Hope 2015 will be as good and best of luck to seveob as our new captain.
    Also thanks Charlie for a very well run a year's golf.

    !

    Charlie and myself were actually 1 down with 4 to play. In the end a half in our match was pretty fair I think. We all played great golf, few ropey holes for myself in the middle, but was very pleased with my game.

    Great putt by technodub on the last considering I picked up my marker so I wouldn't be giving him the line and he had missed a few during the round so fair play to you, well deserved.

    Roll on next year.

    Well, that's it for another year. Pity it didn't end on the high we had got used to all year but you can't win them all.

    Great day out today, on another great course and, as always, in great company. Very tight matches for all groups which is always great to have. Ours was tight from the word go, poor Seve was carrying me for a while but we battled away. Had the chance to wrap it on the 18th but a terrible layup and a fantastic putt from technodub sealed the deal. A half was a fair result at the end of the day. Am never f'n laying up again though!!!!!!!!!

    Unfortunately kiers is unable to take over as captain next year due to other commitments but thankfully Seve is going to step in and keep us on the great path we have started on.

    So onwards and upwards, here's to next year.

    Thanks to every single one of ye for making this great society the success it is.

    Can I just say that it was a birdie @18 for the half....:rolleyes: What a great day in fairness perfect weather lovely golf course and great company. What a tight match for us with neither side ever being more then +1. I think me mark cathal and steven will agree that our game could have been named THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY :D some serious golf shots, serious putts (SEVE) and some serious ****! I aint gonna lie when I say my hands were shaking on 18 with everybody watching knowing I had a putt to finally give boards a taste of the coveted Ryder Jug. Hope everybody enjoyed there day and made it home safely. See yas next year xxx

    (Monthly pictures of me and the ryder jug in random places to follow):rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Well unfortunately myself & scrubber were on the losing end in our match.

    The two boys Alan & Cathal were rock solid golfers. We got off to a bad start, managed to peg them back to within 1 by the 11th, but we were giving them shots on 12 & 13 & they took advantage to stretch to 3 up. Was a tough ask as we were having to make pars to get halves on a lot of holes & nothing was falling for us all day.

    But was a beautiful day on a beautiful course. Thanks to tiger for the lift. The wife had to drive the car down to the garage at 10km/h with her hazards on & her dad driving behind her so it wouldn't have survived a drive to tullamore.

    Best of luck to Stevie for next year. We'll have several to captain the retaking of the cup :D
