[jaybam]

As long as baby has come i will be on holiday and there for sure. Put me in pencil but if you get three definites put them in. Is this cool?

[AndyP]

Are you a member at Robina Woods now, jaybam? If so, you may want to confirm that the cost isn't more than $20.

[henno]

Gailes no likey mega members.

[AndyP]

We don't like them any more either.

[jaybam]

Not for long. Am looking at joining Gailes anyway

[Lucasto23]

Gailes no likey mega members.

You gonna come out and show me your bannana benders mate?

[henno]

I might be a starter, actually. Pencil me in pending me being able to wangle one of my forced leave days to fall on the 10th.

[Lucasto23]

Now thats what i like to hear.

[nudgee]

1) Lucasto23
2) Jaybam (pencil)
3) Henno (pencil)
4) Nudgee (pencil)

[Lucasto23]

so we have 3 pencils and one goer so far.

Any other boys keen to make it a mini ozgolf day let me know and i can see what tee times are still left.

[henno]

Beauty. At this stage I'd say my odds are better than good at being able to make it. I'll confirm early next week.

[dc68]

Get another group happening I will play pending the slow ass coats from the BCC contacting me.

[Lucasto23]

i'll be all over it in the morning DC

you all should join Helensvale, nobody would know you got the cheapie membership. Obviously Robina Woods is getting the reputation of having the cheapskate members.

[jaybam]

Pretty stupid thing to say there blake. For some of us it is the best option at the time and to maintain your handicap so you dont have to do it again. My situation is i moved another 50 klm's away from my then home club and didnt know where i was going to joining and also lost a bit off the passion and enjoyment for the game. Add on top of that lots of renos to do around the house and all of a sudden you dont have enough time to justify the 1000 plus dollars on a membership. Now i have settled into the new house/area i intend to join a local club and get back into it but calling up cheapskates is rude and i think you should maybe take into consideration these things before making stupid assumptions.

[jaybam]

Oh by the way lucas worst case senario for me now is bubs will be induced no later than the 7th of July so i should almost be a sure thing for this now. Cheers

Jesus, your right Blakey, Helensvales nomad membership is cheap! I'm assuming other clubs haven't cottoned on to to the fact that Helensvale is offereing it yet?

Agree. Check out the fees for Shepparton Golf Club - this is a quality course.
http://www.sheppartongolf.net.au/membership.asp

What is the go with Brisbane Golf Clubs, are they just bad managers or what?

[PeteyD]

Pencil me in, depends on what the doc says next friday.

[perci]

Yea I should be good for this,count me in!

[markTHEblake]

Pretty stupid thing to say there blake......but calling us cheapskates is rude and i think you should maybe take into consideration these things before making stupid assumptions.

Sorry, but you misunderstood, I personally am not calling such golfers cheapskate (i was one of these myself once) It is the various golf clubs that are calling the Robina mega-members cheapskates and are treating you with comtempt as such by denying concessional green fees or playing rights at their club. Thats the reality of it.


Jesus, your right Blakey, Helensvales nomad membership is cheap! I'm assuming other clubs haven't cottoned on to to the fact that Helensvale is offereing it yet?

exactly the point. Robina Woods quite obviously is now well recognised for the 'mega' members. Joining a cheap and obscure golf club is obviously going to keep it under the radar for much longer.

[Lucasto23]

Yea I should be good for this,count me in!

Perci, please pm full name for the booking sheet.

[Jarro]

pencil me in too please Lucasto23 :)

Looking like it will be a good day. Two groups.

[Sydney Hacker]

I would be pretty keen for this if a spot opens up. No need to try and get a 3rd group though if a spot doesn't open up I will give it a miss.

[Lucasto23]

Boys we have 4 confirmed starters, they will be first group

Pencils you will be after us but i need full names for the club to lock in our tee time.

The day is going to be awesome and maybe we will get some golf in.

Anyone want carts in the first group?

FFS, can't you blokes get lists right!

[PeteyD]

Can't remove pencil until the monday before, as it depends on the boss's work. But good at the moment.

[henno]

I'll remove my pencil early next week. Just need to submit the leave form.

[Lucasto23]

excellent, as Andy the handicapper just wants me to get the extra names on the list so know one else gives the second tee time away.

Keep out the good work boys

[dc68]

David Clarke would be my real name.

[Lucasto23]

[Lucasto23]

Nice job Lucasto23, well done 8)

I'm pretty happy with myself, for my first time organising a day out;)

[Sydney Hacker]

Is everything still a goer for this ?

I am now on holidays and back in Godsland so will have limited access to the web. I will try and check on Wednesday before I head back down to Brissy to make sure nothing has changed...

[henno]

I'm still all geared up. Leave application approved. Diary clear. All systems go.

[jaybam]

i will be there. Baby is coming tomorrow morning so wife will be home and recovered so i can escape to golf.

[PeteyD]

just got a msg from dc that he is out so I will jump in at this stage. I will confirm tomorrow.

[Lucasto23]

Sweet;)

[BrisVegas]

this thing's almost a major! not bad for a "work day".

[Jarro]

Let's hope the rain stays away

[Lucasto23]

Yes, rain will be the last thing we need at 7:30am. On the positive side it may be a touch warmer if we have the rain;)

[Eag's]

Yes, rain will be the last thing we need at 7:30am. On the positive side it may be a touch warmer if we have the rain;)

Yeah and with some of the pin positions we will face should be a fun day ;)

[Lucasto23]

yeah, i wish they did a pin sheet like the do for the monthly medals. It would help a fair bit and probably speed up play;)

[Jarro]

I'm guessing the pin on the first will be 3/4's of the way up the green about 5 feet from the right edge :shock:

The last two times i've played in this it's been in that spot, making it quite possible to putt off the green and into the trap there.

[Sydney Hacker]

gents unfortunately i will have to give this a miss. Have been invited out onto the reef for a couple of nights and i won't be back in time. My apologies for stuffing you around !

[Jarro]

Sorry to hear that SH :(

[Lucasto23]

sorry to hear mate, but your gonna love the reef.

[jaybam]

Great so the rain is going to make it longer and slower than normal.

[PeteyD]

Well the forecast has dropped back to a few showers today, and a shower or two tomorrow and friday. That should not do a lot to the course.

[Lucasto23]

Anyone in the first group wanna share a cart?

[Lucasto23]

[Jarro]

Lucas, are we off the first tee ?

I need to mentally prepare :roll:

[PeteyD]

Yea good Q, totally different off the back. Need to keep energy for the hill on #2.

[dc68]

Gavin (Freddy's Mate)

Fairfax?

[freddy a]

yeah DC its Gav

[jaybam]

Nudgee and i have swapped groups as he said he might just miss his time slot. Hope this is ok.

[Lucasto23]

Lucas, are we off the first tee ?

For damn sure!!!

I need to mentally prepare :roll:

I know my hamstring is killing me so may be lazy and cart it.:lol:


Nudgee and i have swapped groups as he said he might just miss his time slot. Hope this is ok.

Not a problem, as long as we all pitch and have a fun time. Let's get henno's missus and mates to caddy. that should ensure the older boys have a good time;)

[Jarro]

So was that a yes to the 'teeing off the first' question ??

[Lucasto23]

So was that a yes to the 'teeing off the first' question ??

Yes, straight off the first

[henno]

Anyone between Manly and Wacol need a lift?

[Lucasto23]

Thanks everyone for coming out and making a great day of it, congrats to the happy buyers of clubs at the turn and i hope the new sticks went better on the second 9.

P.s thanks for the money as well boys, see you all next month

[sms316]

I see the two Nudgee-slayers got torn a new one each.

[PeteyD]

We all did. The course plays tough in the Dingo, and the wind today made it tougher again. Prick of a place.
Thanks for organising Lucasto. Nice win of the $$ too.

[Eag's]

A brutal test once again but at least the company was enjoyable.
Cheers to my playing partners Lucas, henno & Nudgee. Thanks to Lucas for organising the day.

[sms316]

What is henno's NCR rate in OzGolf contests?

[henno]

Congratulations Dingo Hill, you just made the list.

1. Northlakes Black Marker
2. Nudgee Plate
3. Gailes Dingo Hill

At least I put in a respectable 110 at the Nudgee Plate instead of giving up like I did on the other two occasions.

Henno,

at least you have home court advantage on sunday over at indro:o

[Jarro]

Thanks for organising Lucas ... top effort for your first attempt 8)

Thanks to jaybam, PeteyD and peter_rs for the round, great company :)

I played like a busted arse .... missing putts, duffing chips, it was terrible :(

Is it possible to have your best round and worst round ever back to back ?

[Lucasto23]

uhmm, we are all golfers on this site and the answer if pretty obvious. never let the game know you think your getting better. it'll kick in in the teeth mate every time.

[henno]

The game knows I'm getting worse, yet still mocks me. She's a wicked mistress.

[Jarro]

Hang in there henno, you'll come good soon enough :)

[Jarro]

Thanks skip

[peter_rs]

thanks for the game jarro, petey and J.

J never again :) I guess it was not shazza after all.

average day all round however it was the best I have chipped in ages.

[jaybam]

Back at ya Pete, lol the rs curse rests on your shoulders not shazzas. Thanks Jarro,Peteyd and Peterrs for the game anyway.I enjoyed it. Course was in good condition again and set up as hard as i think they could have it. Some of those pins were just plain funny. Thanks to Lucas for getting it organised. Dont ask me next time lol.

[PeteyD]

Big thanks to playing partners Jarro, PeterRS and Jaybam. It was fun even if the golf was crapolla. Be nice to play a normal course next week!
