Boards Golf Society - Turkey Shoot out - 21 November 09:56 @ Corballis Golf Links

Sorry Seve, I tried to decline on teamer but it wouldn't let me.

I'm still on the list there but I'm out as you know unfortunately.

Very sorry Seve but I won't be able to make it on Saturday.
Hope you get the weather as forecast for Saturday. I was really looking forward to playing corballis again especially on a day where you could stand up straight with a modicum of confidence

Ok fix, time to start coming up with the goods.
A brief dos and donts on a hole by hole

Wonder if will be on the same page

1/ don't be long, you can get up and from most spots but the hill at the back

2/ chicken out and don't be tempted, depending on wind a 7 iron and wedge is enough. Long right or left off the tee is as dead as disco

3/ decision time, is it early enough in the round to be aggressive, it's all about the drive. you just gotta keep it between the dunes, I wouldnt be worried about distance off the tee, 3 hits to the green and two putts is a great score

4/ time for soft hands and a smooth tempo, I normally hit my 56 about 80%. Don't miss left

5/ what ever you hit 190/200 and straight. Tricky green, watch out for the pin position, two tiered and 3 putt very possible

6/ one more than 4

7/ don't be tempted. 7 iron to the marker and 9/pw in, if in doubt go long on the second, hard up and down if you miss short

8/ Driver at the little bunker with a little draw is good, tiger line is the waters edge with a fade. Often a blind second shot so walk up and have a look. Big green so you can be aggressive.

9/ only one way to play it, aim right to go left. 5 iron normal for me. Little drain at the back so don't be long

10/ 5 iron and no trouble.

11/ more decisions but play safe. 6 iron dead straight, maybe even 7. Easy big green, you cannot miss it long

12/ driver at the hut is good but a good drive a little right can be easily on. Safe route 4 iron//5iron/wedge and a chance at birdie

13/ close your eyes and hope your karma is good. Lap of the gods stuff. Extra underwear needed if you have a downhill putt.

14/ great hole, normally rescue and an 8 here for me. Tonnes of room on the left none on the right

15/ open your shoulders right or left of the bunker is good

16/ same as 15 but backwards, a little longer though. Tough green big slope

17/ designed by Helen Keller I believe. Not sure what to say ???

18/ 3 wood or rescue?? Just don't be right. Just left of centre is a great line in. Balls often come up short so give it enough club on the second shot, tough up and down if you miss right.

Hey, would a 4 hour round be within reason for a 4 ball in Corbalis?

The reason I am asking is I just remembered I have to back in Drogheda for 3 o clock on Saturday

Should be ok

Brilliant, thanks John.

Fix has gone very quiet, can you feel the panic setting in ????

Sorry Seve my guest cant make it I sent you a pm I dont mind switching times etc if that helps..

J - nice guide,

He beat me well there once, so I will listen to superior knowledge.

John - favourite now.

Ha ha, we have played here together a half dozen times and I only beat you once.

Keelings is in the village is it?

Seve one of my guests has injured himself and is out sorry late notice
