You can do it yourself DC, just edit the first post and the title.

[PeteyD]

hmm Dunno if I can get the day off. I was thinking of the Thursday before the McLeod cup as I have that week off. I assume you are talking the 22nd March?

Any chance of the 12th April? (or maybe the 5th)

Did you buy A ndy's irons?

Yes the 22nd, That is the only Thursday I have off.

[Jarro]

you reckon the place is in better condition now ?

[dc68]

With the rain we've had and a report I had last week it sounds like it is

[Jarro]

That sounds great then mate.

[dc68]

1. dc68
2. Jarro ?

[Grunt]

Good to hear you guys are going, will be good to see how it has improved since you were last there. Hopefully it will be glowing and the doubts about hte condition of the course that people had will be long gone.

[Eag's]

Can't make this one guys.
I will be on holidays at Stradie that week so no golf for me
just fishing & drinking a plenty :smt030 :mrgreen:

[BrisVegas]

I'd prefer if you blokes, especially our regning champ, didn't get any more familiar with the course before the champs. Thanks! :smt002

[Grunt]

Did not think of that Dion, you Bastards no golf just walk around the course in no particular order and give us a report.

[PeteyD]

hmm ok might have to crack a sicky. It'd take a lot to get too familiar with the course Dion :D


DC68
Jarro ??
PeteyD

[dc68]

Nah no sinister motives:twisted: just making sure the course is up to statndard for us to hold the champs on.

In saying that I think everyone should chip in for our green fees......we are doing this for YOU.:smt002

[Jarro]

1. dc68
2. Jarro ????????????????????????

still not sure if i'll be able to make it mate :???:

[PeteyD]

Dave - What sort of report did you hear?

Anyone else able to make this trip?

[dc68]

That it was in good condition. C'mon players wassup? Get yo ass to K.Valley for a sneaky preview of this years Champs venue.

[andylo]

only if its on weekend instead of weekdays....

[dc68]

The Copperhead is played on Thurdays Andy.

[AndyP]

What's the price again? And what time were you looking at? I've gone from 'no chance' to 'slim chance'.

[PeteyD]

$50 +$5 comp to play in the copperhead. Includes cart. Have to be morning tee and will need to be booked soonish.

[dc68]

what petey said.

[kpac]

What's the price again? And what time were you looking at? I've gone from 'no chance' to 'slim chance'.

re-match andy???

have to be morning tee time for me.

[dc68]

Sweet, that would be a 4 c'mon P.

[PeteyD]

Book it for 4 davo

[AndyP]

Sorry, I can't give my full commitment to this round at the moment. And I may not be able to until a couple of days before, so don't go planning around me. If a spot is still available when the time comes, then I might take it.

[dc68]

Will book for 4


8ish?

[PeteyD]

smells good

[kpac]

smells great. book me in.
play it by ear Andy, if you can make it are you game for a rematch?

[AndyP]

smells great. book me in.

Depends. Are you getting better? ;)

If I play, then we'll make it a rematch. Have you played there before?

[kpac]

Yep played there before, think it is an awsome course. but unfortunatelly can not claim to have figured it out. Very tough holes out there.

Heard from a mate on the weekend it is in better condition now than when i visited in december. And i thought it was pretty good then, only a little bit of sunburn on the greens.

Interesting you should say that, as a few OZgolfers played it together a month or so ago, and came back with mixed reports, especially the condition of the greens.

I guess it's only fair we play a course where you have more knowledge, after we played my 'local'.

you're getting scared aren't you andy :wink:

i have played it anywhere near enough to claim course "knowledge", but my swing is comming along a bit now, i'm itching to get to play a comp to work on my handicap. Have a comp on sunday but it's an ambrose, so that isn't going to help me.

[PeteyD]

Don't worry guys, I can show you how to play it, except for 10. :D hehe

[kpac]

Don't worry guys, I can show you how to play it, except for 10. :D hehe

must'n have heard about your story with the 10th, but i would have thought that was one of the easier holes out there??

[Jarro]

You reckon you got another career round left in ya Pete ;)

[dc68]

Don't worry guys, I can show you how to play it, except for 10. :D hehe



This is FACT.

[dc68]

kpac if you could pm me your details, Name etc.

[PeteyD]

Probably waste it on this trip and bomb out during the champs big time! hehe

Round of 71 net including an 11 on 10. Mind you I am off a big ass handicap. This time I am thinking of taking a 9 iron off the tee.

[dc68]

OK all booked 0800 22March for 4 peeps.

Don't worry about those details kpac I have just booked for 4 under Clarke.

[AndyP]

you're getting scared aren't you andy :wink: Yes. The bye I had before is looking better all the time. I'm such an idiot!

Try to get a comp round in somewhere, so your handicap kicks into action (assuming it will).

[PeteyD]

Sweet. Need a lift again Dave. And I won;t lock the keys in the car this time ...

[dc68]

Perfect mate, and I won't forget to slip you some $$ for petrol.

Beauey Macca's for brekky?

[PeteyD]

Sounds like the Go.

Changes to Layout for AP (kpac would have seen these)- 1 and 18 are totally different (well 1 still uses half the old hole and the same green). 14 is longer off the back. Other wise pretty much how I remembered it from long time ago.

[kpac]

Try to get a comp round in somewhere, so your handicap kicks into action (assuming it will).

quizzed my club and they said, if i hand in 5 cards i'll be sweet to have a legit handicap for all comps, but they said as it is, it shouldn't be a problem. I've got a couple of cards to hand in so i should up and running properly soon.

[AndyP]

Need someone to sign some for you. I'll quite happily sign a few nett 60s for you......

Petey, I can't really remember much of the course at all, although it may come back bit by bit, when I go around it again.

[dc68]

I will tell you where to hit it mate. ;)

[PeteyD]

It's pretty easy on most holes except 6, 7, 9

[kpac]

add the 3rd to that list aswell. I think the front nine is great. 7 and 8 are great holes.

[PeteyD]

3rd is hard but where to hit it is pretty obvious I would have thought. Most of the course is hard for that matter. I had a few lucky breaks on that round earlier in the year, and it is a course you need some luck on to do well. 16 would probably be the only easy hole on the course.

[kpac]

Well for a high handicapper you must of had a good day out, cause i sure can't make it around the corner from the back marker on the 3rd. There's no way i get a look at the green :( , And the direction might be pretty obvious off the tee, but it's a nice surprise when you find it drops away into the sh|t on the right once you find your ball. Good hole with a great green that one!

[PeteyD]

Good point. As a high handicapper I play it like a 5 as I have no hope of making the corner. The drop to the right is nasty. And Jarro did call it a career round, I had a very lucky day.

OK had a looksee on Google Earth (this is one of about 5 holes you can see). The landing area for the drive ends at around 245 m, and you can't actually see that from the tee. The only safe line at that length is straight over the bunker which is not obvious and even not that safe.

A 240 m drive to the right of the bunker leaves you about 140 m out, but all uphill and between trees. I'll bring a camera and try and do a review of sorts for everyone for the champs.

[dc68]

Goneski I can't play. Bloody work.

[PeteyD]

So Anyone else up to this? Jarro? AP you gonna make it?

[AndyP]

AP you gonna make it?Yes, I should be able to now. The tee time can't be any earlier than 7:30a though, as I need to drop Mitchell off at daycare. The closer to 8am or after the better for me.


AP dilly dallying.
That's a bit harsh. Due dates of babies aren't an exact science (unless you cheat and get a C-section).

[PeteyD]

It is booked for 8:00 I think under Dave's name

[dc68]

That's a bit harsh. Due dates of babies aren't an exact science (unless you cheat and get a C-section).


Apologies.:oops:

[dc68]

Don't count me out yet. I might still be a chance.

[PeteyD]

Dave you are a shocker

[AndyP]

Stop dilly-dallying, dc.

[kpac]

well i'm confused...
but looks like the rematch is on Andy?
should be a good one (surely we'll both play better than last time)

[dc68]

Stop dilly-dallying, dc.


:evil: :roll: :smt021 :smt019

[AndyP]

Re-match is on and this time I plan on bringing a golf swing.

[Iain]

Re-match is on and this time I plan on bringing a golf swing.

Who's are you borrowing?

[AndyP]

Clarification:
Re-match is on and this time I plan on bringing my normal crappy golf swing (instead of the shitty one from Gailes).

[Iain]

:p

[dc68]

Out! Qantas ****s. Sorry fellas. Anyone want my spot?

[PeteyD]

Dave that sucks. Jarro??

[Grunt]

QANTAS finally cutting into Marketing hey Dave? Have been screwing engineering hard in the past few months.

[Jarro]

Dave that sucks. Jarro??

Sorry mate :cry:

[AndyP]

Anyone potential candidates we could pressure into playing?
I could see if notlob would want to use a flex day.

[PeteyD]

Might be good. 4 would be better

[dc68]

Ahem....... Backflip by Qantas. :)

[PeteyD]

So you in again?

[AndyP]

Head post needs editing and my invitation needs recalling. ;)

[kpac]

ok so we're back on dc, nice one mate.

[dc68]

Yeah all good again.

[PeteyD]

It is enough to drive you to drink.

[dc68]

Anyone else want to join us?
Bueller? bueller? bueller?

[Grunt]

oohh I could maybe, morning Flight up golf game, Afternoon flight home. Will look at Staff travel and the finances.

[BrisVegas]

Don't forget how far it is from the airport to Kooralbyn Grant. It's prob an hour at least each way.

[AndyP]

Don't forget how far it is from the airport to Kooralbyn Grant. It's prob an hour at least each way.
Hour and a half at least. I plan on taking just over an hour, and I'm on the right side of the city.

Grunt, you are a nutter. See you Thursday. :mrgreen:

[Grunt]

Yeah wont be able to get there in time, I should have looked at the tee time. It was only a really light pencil maybe.

[Jarro]

It's a long day when you do a day interstate trip too Grant ;)

[Grunt]

Will definitely do one, one day. This was not the right day really anyway as I have $500+ in medical bills that week.

[AndyP]

kpac, in the spirit of the Chops/Rawlo match, I expect each of us to drink a couple of six packs and pass out on the couch on Wednesday night as preparation for our match.

[Jarro]

A couple of six packs !!

That'd hardly be enough to make you even wanna go to the loo :roll:

[AndyP]

For you and I that's true, but I'm pretty sure that kpac can't handle his drink. :smt030 :lol:

[kpac]

For you and I that's true, but I'm pretty sure that kpac can't handle his drink. :smt030 :lol:
i recon you must have nut's the size of grapefruits aswell, you big man you! :roll:
I'm in brisbane city tonight actually and will have a couple of setlers if that counts.
True story: The last time i played kooralbyn, i had a cricket club dinner the night before, got shit faced and had to get up at 5 for a 10to 7 tee time out there (thankfully got a lift, iwas still pissed as a newt!) got changed in the car, and ordered an emergency stop at cunungra for a spew and a pie (needed to soak up some) Needless to say i was pretty relaxed out on course that day, slow movements everywhere as the hangover kicked in. i also crashed the cart going between the 1st and 2nd (i'm still pleading my case with the rest of the group, i maintain that the tyres of the cart were to blameforlack of traction)
I will never play in that condition again if i can help it!
So everyone is all set for this one. we got a patch of rain last night on the coast which hopefully wouldhave made the range and have it looking tip top.

[AndyP]

Looking forward to it. I'm ashamed to admit that I'll probably be popping into the range today for a quick hit. I haven't played since our last match.

[markTHEblake]

I will never play in that condition again if i can help it!

haha, i did the same thing once at a HS reunion. drank till about 4am, never slept at all and then played golf at 11am at Twin waters after about 15 coffees.

nearly passed out every time i picked the ball out of the hole, dry wreached and burped all the way round, slept in the cart between shots.

absolutely ripped it off the tee all the way round, and hit my irons flawlessly. If not for a flubbed pitch shot on the first and 2 shocking 3 putts at the end it would have been the perfect round of golf.....(ie no bogies)

however i will never play in that condition again. hurt far too much.

[dc68]

Pussies.

[dc68]

See you all in the morning.

[Jarro]

Fingers crossed the place is in better nick than last time we were there Dave ;)

[dc68]

No worries mate :mrgreen:

[kpac]

yeah see you there dave.

[dc68]

Hard to miss me. ;)

[AndyP]

I was in great form at the range. Hit a zillion shanks and left half a bucket of balls behind........or did I? ;)

[PeteyD]

Hard to miss you? The 2 of us getting out of that little car must be a sight to behold ...

[goughy]

It'd be a bit like one of those clown cars me thinks!!! And I stress on the clown :)

[kpac]

I was in great form at the range. Hit a zillion shanks and left half a bucket of balls behind........or did I? ;)

We'll see mate, since our last match i've figured out how to get the ball off the tee :D :D
i had a quick hit today aswell, not one shank and all drives over 300metres.... or were they? :o

[AndyP]

Red, red waaai-e-i-e-iiiinnne. Goes to my hey-ey-ey-ead.

[just]

2 pot screamer!:roll:






:lol:

[PeteyD]

bloody hell. Hope there are no RBT units on Baeudesert Rd!!See you there boys and bring your A game.

[Jarro]

Don't forget the camera Pete ;)

[kpac]

Dave, Pete, Andy, thanks for the day, was an enjoyable hit all things considered (although i didn't expect as much after the 1st!)
Good company,
Good course,
some Good golf,
shit-house greens.
Not a bad day all up.

[Jarro]

.. so the greens were still crappy 'eh :roll:

[kpac]

freshly corred and sanded (which obviously only comes in chicken shit form out that way)
I just p|ssed us off that the pro shop didn't so much as let us know. You'd expect discounted green fees the way the greens were. I'm going to write a letter of complaint, wont get me far, but someone needs to tell them they are doing reputation no favours by not informing patrons of course condition

[AndyP]

You're right, kpac, it was still a bloody good day despite the un-green greens. (albeit long, 6am-4pm travel + golf)

We played on four different types of greens on the day.
Green with dirt/sand/rocks/shit dumped on it.
The same greens, but the dirt/sand/rocks/shit had been swept and spread evenly, maybe a little compacted.
Then were those greens that had the sprinklers on while we were playing, so we were putting through wet dirt/sand/rocks/shit.
And the 18th was untouched as it was a newer green, but it was far from perfect.
I used my wedge on the second green, instead of chipping.
How they can be doing all this work to greens in the middle of a comp is beyond me. And to not tell us beforehand!!!!! I'll be sending an email.

In the Copperhead comp all markers are taken right back. One member of ground staff got a little carried away on the long par 3 5th. He took it so far back, that your backswing hit the shrubs behind. There were only a couple of places where it didn't, but it was still distracting.

Gee there are some tough holes out there. The 10th which was at least a 200m carry from the tee was scary, as were some of those par 3s.
I finished the front nine thinking that the course wasn't that long. It got a lot longer on the back nine, and it was hard work, as far as the golf was concerned.

dc might like to recall his play on the par 5 12th(?). It was a bit Tin Cup-esque. :mrgreen:

Thanks for the day, boys.

[Jarro]

Did they have the correct yardage sign up for the 14th ?

[AndyP]

Did they have the correct yardage sign up for the 14th ?
There was no yardage sign for the blacks on the 14th. Although it looked like it used to say 160m when it is in fact many more.

[BrisVegas]

So lads, what's the latest opinion of Kooralbyn as our champs venue??

Reckon it'll be in decent shape by then???

[Jarro]

Dion, when i was there with the lads earlier this year, i spoke to a greenkeeper who said that they'd be working their arses off trying to get the place in decent nick.

By the sounds of it, they're falling short :(

Still a long way to go to the Champs though...

[PeteyD]

The course is in much better nick than January, except we have no idea about the greens though with all the frigging sand (there were no holes that a buggy could fall into though and they seemed a lot smoother, but who knows). It certainly looks like they are trying to bring it back to something decent.

The fairways were much greener. I did take photos ad you should be able to see that. Dave and I will be heading back again in May/June, and hopefully the greens won't have been cored and sanded.

Might have been nice if they had done the work early in the morning instead of as we were playing. Sprinklers are very annoying when you are putting.

Oh yea thanks for the day all. The match play was good to watch, kpac with a big comeback on the back 9. Some good golf by everyone and some crap golf by everyone.

[PeteyD]

Yea I think the groundskeepers wanted to wet the chicken crap down

[AndyP]

Geezuz what sort of a backyard operation is this ?
Sprinklers on during the copperhead....and during the day when its hot...ffs.
Yep, pretty much spot on midday the sprinklers were going. Some of them weren't even operating properly, and just dumping water all in one spot around the sprinkler head.

[Jarro]

Sounds like a pretty dodgy operation out there.

Pete, do you really think the place had improved that much since we were there last time ?

[AndyP]

Petey, have you got the scores?

[PeteyD]

Well Jarro, I didn't think it was that bad last time mate except a couple of greens and they are obviously trying to sort that out. But the course was definately greener and they are certainly working on it. Still reckon it will be a great venue for the champs. Like everywhere it needs a wet autumn though. I am pretty upset about the greens, put me right off my game!! hehe

Doing the maintanance while we were playing in a comp was pretty bad, and extremely annoying:smt013 . Much bad karma on the groundstaff. I think part of it has to do with the fact that it is a resort course and not a club. They also need to fix those sprinkler heads, although there was evidence of work on the irrigation stuff in the 4th where they had dug some stuff out.

No, didn't write the scores down and they have golflink but apparently do not know how to use the computer yet :smt013 . From memory nett scores were

AndyP 77
DC68 79
kpac 83
PeteyD 86

Something like that. The order is correct.

I did however pick upa real nice shirt and half a dozen Pro Vs.

[AndyP]

AndyP 77
DC68 79
kpac 83
PeteyD 86

kpac had 80, so I'll chuck these in the header post.

[AndyP]

Are you kidding me??? Some guy off 11 played to 3, and had a nett 66. On those greens!!!!! Did he play at 6am, and the put the dirt on afterwards?
http://www.golflink.com.au/compresults.aspx?compid=3490761&returnUrl=/compresults.aspx?compid=3490761
CCR was 74, despite an ACR of 75. :roll:

Good to see they put the cards in though. I'm back off 11. :(

And it looks like kpac's handicap is now normal and active. See if you can lose a couple of shots at Nudgee for me, will you?

[kpac]

Are you kidding me??? Some guy off 11 played to 3, and had a nett 66. On those greens!!!!! Did he play at 6am, and the put the dirt on afterwards?

I'd have a big question mark over that!!! Anyone off 11 that can play to 3 off the black markers out there is having and absolute day out to start with, not to mention the fact you'd have to be houdini to read the roll off the duck shit on those greens. Who ever it was is having a good flog of themselves me thinks.

And it looks like kpac's handicap is now normal and active. See if you can lose a couple of shots at Nudgee for me, will you?
nick off, you get an extra shot already! it was hard enought to reel you in as it was!

Maybe he use a wedge instead of a putter ;)

[kpac]

AndyP used this technique well on the 3rd, and had me contemplating doing the same.

[PeteyD]

66 bloody hell. Hey I didn't come stone cold last! Nett was 82, I must of just though it was worse than that!

[kpac]

letter sent to KV resort, will let ou know of response, if any. Could have kept writting about little things that ticked me off, but thought i'd leave it plain a simple and see what they say.

[PeteyD]

Someone asked for an AP WITB photo. Looked best like this ...

[BrisVegas]

Someone asked for an AP WITB photo. Looked best like this ...

What fool asked for that? Looks like the private stash of someone with a neoprene fetish. ;)

[AndyP]

Someone asked for an AP WITB photo. Looked best like this ...
Really? Why don't they just look in my WITB thread. It's up to date. Does someone think I've been buying clubs on the sly?

[PeteyD]

No names but it was requested for some strange reason.

[poidda]

No names but it was requested for some strange reason.

Vegas is now happy to have an additional pic to add to his neoprene collection now!

[AndyP]

Maybe someone is holding my 9 iron cover as hostage. I'd just assumed it was lost at last years Champs.

[AndyP]

letter sent to KV resort, will let ou know of response, if any. Could have kept writting about little things that ticked me off, but thought i'd leave it plain a simple and see what they say.
I've just sent an email titled "Feedback from an unhappy customer".

[AndyP]

I have made mention of the social group booking.

Here's an extract of the reply that both Kent and I have received:

Firstly, I served you personally in the Golf Shop yesterday morning, our policy is to advise all players WHEN BOOKING, about the green renovations as most then wish to defer to a later date. Obviously you weren't informed when booking, so this matter will be discussed with the relevant staff member. I apologise for not mentioning it in the shop as I assumed you had be informed!

We are obviously working hard on getting the greens back into shape. This renovation, we are putting the highest grade and volume of fertilisers available onto the putting surfaces to prepare them for winter. We are one of only a few courses in Qld that has "Bent" grass greens which require water during the day when renovating which explains why the sprinklers have come on during the day however, the greenstaff are supposed to water around the players. I will discuss the points you raised about the sprinklers and the 5th Tee markers with our new Course Superintendant.

The scores yesterday were certainly lower than normal ,so most found the greens easier to putt on. One of the 7.00am group had nett 71 off a handicap of 3.

I'm sure you can appreciate that we have done a much heavier renovations
than in previous years to raise the quality of the greens to a higher standard. Obviously you weren't advised of this renovating programme which is why I would like to invite your group back for another round as my guests. If you give it at least 3 weeks, you will certainly notice a huge improvement since last December.

I couldn't ask for more from the reply than that.

[andylo]

I think you guys got yourself an excellent offer :)

[AndyP]

I think you guys got yourself an excellent offer :)
I think we got what we should, but it is appreciated all the same. It's nice to know some places do care about their customers.

[andylo]

It's nice to know some places do care about their customers.


Agree... hardly happen in this country.

[kpac]

you fast typer andy, i was about to post the same reply

I also responded to Barrys response to say that, albeit a dissapointing day yesterday, we did commend the obvious effort being put into the course.

So when do we give it another shot boys....

[AndyP]

So when do we give it another shot boys....At least a month, if not more.

So when do we email Barry about the architectural faults of the first?

[andylo]

I wouldn't accept that.
Get him to throw in a coupla cartons for the champs...chilled too.

Maybe part of the reason ppl don't care about their customers <---- likely some old whiners! :mrgreen:

[kpac]

So when do we email Barry about the architectural faults of the first?

After we get the free game out of him!

[andylo]

At least a month, if not more.

So when do we email Barry about the architectural faults of the first?

Wouldn't it be better to ask them nicely with a curiousity tone about why the arrangement, instead of complaint about it?

After we get the free game out of him!

Your quicker this time ;)

...and try to subtley use the words....shoulda got Watson do do the work.

haha,

I agree andy, give it a month to settle the greens down because i'd like to take a couple of snaps to show the bent greens looking nice. There is nothing better than when they are lush. So next visit they have no excuses :mrgreen: :mrgreen: i was giving KV the benifit of the doubt for condition this time.

Hahaha I might mention that someone I know said the cart paths would have been removed if it was watson!

Nice offer from him too. I think we will all appreciated it. How about Anzac day, in a psuedo copperhead?

I'm not sure if we all had to return at the same time or not. Might be a bit hard if we did. I'm unable to make ANZAC day as my folks are here.

[Jarro]

I'll take P's place.

I'm better company anyway 8)

[AndyP]

I'm not offering MY course credit. :p

[goughy]

I'd be happy with the effort put into his reply. He certainly explained everything that happened well, and explained that steps will be taken to resolve any of the 'hiccups'.

And the offer of the return game. All is as it should be of course, but these days you don't always get that.

[kpac]

ANZAC day might be a chance for me if you get a group PeteyD.

[poidda]

Yeah seems like good service to me! And I'd be keen for an Anzac bash.

Best thing about Ancaz day as well, is you dont feel guilty for drinking rums at 9am!

[terryand]

well now it is clear why the green are such a handful. bent greens out there would be a nightmare to maintain through summer.

hopefully playing the camps at the beginning of summer the greens will be in good nick cause they would have had ( hopefully) a long winter of conditions they like.

Terry.

[PeteyD]

Anzac day sounds good. You feel guilty drinking rums at 9:00 ???

Cheers to Pete, Ap and Kent for a very pleasant game of golf.
As has been said earlier some good golf and some shite. As for my "tin cup" Mr P.... the tree kept moving!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)

As far as the course was concerned I had no complaints apart from the obvious.. the greens.Was absolutelty filthy with the staff for not advising me of reno's when I made a booking.(Nice work in geeting us a credit P.)
Had a good day anyways, and learnt where not to hit it on a couple more holes.
