A great day alright, Eric truly was the star, off the ground/in the air/on the ground/and on his back all in one cast :!: and still managed to hang on the the rod,,, never seen an AWT do that to anyone :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Excellent.
It was great to put faces to names, a big well done to Dennis, Shane and Fintan for surpassing the 200yd mark, but everyone did very well for there 1st time on a court with minimal oche bottle, staffo should be along soonwith the results.

what can i say about eric :o it was the best standing,twisting,falling,tumbling,spinning,rolling on your back pendulum cast ever,
and in fairness to the man the line was still coming of the reel when it was 5 foot away from him, and he didnt birdie or crack of :lol:


have to say a huge bit thanks to the guys from sportscast ireland for an amazing day, i highly recomend every club out there to get out and give it a go, if even just for the craic, every one of us improved on our cast,

as for this ochie bottle,,, somehow i had to go up first :( , its a very daunting feeling been up there first but lucky enough got my first cast of with out a crack of, :lol:
but when i got of i was shaking a wee bit :cry:

fintan was def the main man of the day with an amazing improvement through out the day, big well done fintan 8) 8)
and well done to every one who turned up,
