Charlton Life Golf Society - 22nd August

http://www.charltonlife.com/forum/comments.php?DiscussionID=15633&page=2#Item_37


Have been talking to PBS recently and we are keen to get a Charlton Life Golf Society up and running. The whole idea is that it is not too serious, and no real commitment, just a way of getting fellow fans together occasionally for a game of golf and a beer, and get to meet new people. Initial plans are to try and arrange 2-3 events a year, though it would all depend once up and running on what the members actually wanted etc.

Obviously you will need to have hacked you’re way around a golf course previously, but certainly no requirement to be a Tiger Woods in the making (I normally go round in about 100 if that is an indicator).

Not looking for any commitment now, no date or course has been arranged for the first one (though we’re provisionally looking at sometime late May – early June for the first one, somewhere south-east / north kent), this message is purely to see if there are any legs in it, and what sort of provisional numbers we can plan events on potential interest.

So if this is something you may be interested in, please pipe up and reply. Cheers

    As i said NLA, its not serious. If you can hit a ball, you can play. Simple as that really. Maybe, once we find out who is interested, we can try and match up so that people play in a group of similar ability at first, if that appeals.

    I've only ever been on the driving range and get hit a ball nearly every time! Same boat as nla really.

    Got some clubs and everything but would be up for it yes if i got some more practice in!

    game on

    You should try to organise a "top Golf tournament"

    Dont know if any of you have played Top Golf in Epping Its like a driving range but the balls are all chipped and they get alloctated to yourselves via your membership card and then you have to try to hit them into targets at various distances and angles, you get more points the closest to the flag.

    Cracking way to spend an afternoon with pals whilst having a beer and even if you are shite it really helps your technique and range.

    Blinding afternoon

    I've never met any of you but I would definitely be interested and I'd like to put some faces to names. And I'm sure the fella I sit next to in the North stand would as well as I know he likes his golf.

    I think it best I give this one a miss, I'm rubbish even on a driving range! The word "shank" is often shouted post erratic swing!

    But if anyone plays Table Tennis thats a different kettle of fish entirely!

    If 100 is the standard I'm in (presume that's for a 9 hole game)
  • Options
    yep - interested
  • Options
    I thought the hundred was how many times you swing at a ball b4 you hit it
  • Options
    Yep and me, Luva Luva would be interested but watch him he`ll tell you he`s a 28 handicap but plays to a 6 !!
    just a suggestion why not put all the guys or girls who have played in to draw and pair them up with those who dont.

  • Options
    I'm crap, so I should be worth a laugh! Count me in.
  • Options
    could be fun
    yes
  • Options
    Shootershill G.C. could be available to a society, but I know for sure its only available thursdays.
  • Options
    shooters hills a good shout tce.

    count me in but i reckon i'd easily be the worst, cant even hit the ball off of the floor me, just trickles 50 yards at a time so i just trot to my ball so's not to hold up anyone you no!? Strange really cos i have played many a round and spent untold hours on the birchwood 9 and driving range in my early driving days, and plenty other courses too, i am just totally awful, but in my mind i could play off 16!!

    But as i say i wouldnt turn down a golf society, been to a few and its really a great day aint it, the beer part obviously is of importance tho.

    Reckon morts genius would be up for this, i shall ask .
