Just cba with someone who im assuming is decent at the game, lording it over others. Especially when they never say their scores. Haha I’m shite btw. Play off 6 but can’t break 90 these days, game has gone to utter shite, only off 6 because I’m not playing medals and submitting scores as I’d rocket 🚀 and lose all interest in the game. All down to a serious drop in fitness. Edited September 13, 2023 by Armageddon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The intent is to reel someone in and you have been the 'big fish' this time. On the other hand, he is a solid player but his intent is not lord it over others - simply banter. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pasquale for King Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 I was unsuccessful in getting a ticket for the Thursday at The Open next year, gutted. Could go to the practice days or hospitality but wouldn’t be the same. Must be the weak pound encouraging tourists to apply for tickets, never had an issue in the last 20 odd years.

What worries me about this is whether it's the start of these sort of events going overseas every so often. What's not to say that one year, for example the 175th, that they'll say they are doing something special like holding it in Saudi or China as long as the money is right.

It's not as if GB & NI are short of top quality links courses to host The Open. Portmarnock's a fine course, too, but it would be a gimmick to play there.

Bigsmak Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 Played a Texas Scramble at my club yesterday - Was quite freeing just being able to be aggressive on every shot - trying to blast every drive and not worry about pin positions and bunkers - Played 2 'World Class' shots that I wouldn't have even usually tried over bunkers into tight pins - my playing partners were both amazed and confused considering the last time I tried something like that I was 60 yrds through the green with a sore wrist to go with it ... think Thinned to Feck! ... But these things are always fun, everyone was involved and we left the course kicking ourselves as we didn't hole a putt longer than 5 foot... lovely sunny day though!

There may be mats getting used on occasion for the first time ever. 🙈 The courses will be on a two week rotation (but both opened for weekends) so should be in great nick if not saturated and day-trippers repair their pitch marks. Regarding the series, I never got around to fulfilling the rounds last year but from the one before, there was a host of bandit scores being posted. The guys running it confirmed they were ensuring the scores were being returned to the home clubs for them to count towards WHS as the players looked to have been avoiding this over the piece.
