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

Seve OB

Well I promised I'd look at doing something to wrap the year up and seeing as there was a reasonable bit of interest, I have gone and booked us in at the world famous Corballis Golf Links for the inaugural Boards Turkey Shoot out.

Tee times will be early and kick off at 9:56.
Three balls.
Price will be a flat €30.
We have 24 slots booked, but get in early and we can get more slots if required. There is another society out at 11, so extra times would be beforehand. Teamer will be sent out shortly.

Open to everyone who wants to play, not just society members, so an ideal chance if you are new and want to come along and find out what we are about.

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.

Sorry, I went off Teamer when I was doing timesheet

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

I think for another day.

But , agree it has potential.

I honestly think I could get around in under 85 with 1 club.
Under 80 if all went right.
Maybe -

That I would like to see.

Enjoy the outing, Corballis is on my hit list for 2016! Ship herself off to Dundrum and perhaps catch an open with some boardsies in decent weather!

FixdePitchmark

OK too far out to call.

BUt will be cold - so have your layer options available.

There is a near gale warning at moment, but with wind at present we will not know till things settle.

At least no rain yet.

Ok fix, time to start coming up with the goods.
A brief dos and donts on a hole by hole basis would be much appreciated by us mortals not lucky enough to be in your esteemed company on Saturday.
The only hole I can remember is that bloody par three over the water with a massive long green but I remember it for all the wrong reasons

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

Brilliant, thanks John.

Whatever club you think it is go for 1 more. Aim to play in to the bank that runs along the back of the green and if you hit it you ball will roll back on.

Main thing to remember with this hole is don't be short, left or right. Or too long.

This is a 7 iron for me every time. Again if you're going to be short be way short. There is somewhat of a bailout are to the right but if you miss left my only advice for the second is to not try to be too clever. Just make sure it gets up the hill

spacecoyote

Seve, really sorry for this. My brother just got keys to his new house today (after months of delays) & I've been recruited in to help strip out the old kitchen on Saturday

Apologies for late notice & if it's causing issues with cash, etc let me know. Won't leave you caught short.

I know what I'd rather be doing

FixdePitchmark

J - nice guide,

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

J - favourite now.
