    Shame they didn't actually talk about the course all that much, but still an enjoyable episode (and series).

    Agreed, place looked spectacular, but there was a bit too much emphasis on the birdie count & not enough on the course!

    Hi, Purdy. You're more than welcome to join, absolutely.

    there is an annual sub of €30, and then the average outing is generally around the €35 mark.

    We'll have 2 more outings next year that will be at more of a premium, the first & last, Portmarnock & Captains in Enniscrone, but they won't be excessive at all, and are top notch courses.

    More details will be announced closer to the time of each event.

    There is some more detail on the society rules, etc... here:

    I wouldn't say I'm the worst but certainly no Tiger Woods.

    I'd say on a good day I'm average.

    Sorry for stating the obvious, but just to be super clear in my mind.. The teamer message was sent to existing members of the soc only?

    I can’t take any credit for it, it was Seveob that set you up. We’d be lost without all his help in the society.

    A quick update all. Given the April event was originally scheduled for the 18th, and with everywhere due to be should until the 19th, I've contacted West Waterford and secured a date change to the 2nd May, at 12-1.30.

    We just have to hope for the best now. I know its slipping the event date into the following month, but its about the best we can do given the circumstances.

    More updates will follow, as they arise

    so who wants to keep the society going while we are on lockdown?

    one of the lads was toying with the idea of going out and getting a playstation & copy of tiger woods, so maybe we can try and come up with some sort of online league or matchplay.

    I suggested WGT which is online and app for all platforms...... and free :)

    so any interest?

    Just to confirm to all, that the planned West Waterford outing will not go ahead due to the extended government restrictions.

    If things go well in the next few weeks, hopefully we may be back out for the outing later in May (though that's probably at a high risk of cancellation too at this point)
