    Course work at Stoneham

    Yep must admit that it is looking tempting, at least 5 years ahead of our place in the work that’s being done. Over last couple of years we’ve lost some members to there and can see why.

    Match play or strokeplay ?

    Gotta love a bit of Matchplay. Think that playing snooker and darts for years, I prefer the 1 on 1 (or pairs) game. Beat the player in front of you, make a chip for a half, sink a putt for a win, great feeling

    Meon valley

    Played there on Saturday. Pretty wet in places at the moment but just about holding up. What advice you after, if it's fairway hitting advice, then you best ask someone else.🙈....playing out the rough, I'm your man👍

    Majors, who decides?

    still think that there is room for another major. Would love to see a matchplay event become one. Maybe top 128 in world seeded knockout?

    Municipal Golf.

    Another one in Bournemouth is Meyrick Park. That was 1894. But no idea of its ownership now

    Municipal Golf.

    Maybe Queen's Park in Bournemouth?? Was opened in 1905. Wild guess as it's local and old!!

    Indeed, more than £500 in some outlets. And he thinks they're going to sell well!!

    New M1 Price

    Heard off my pro the other day that the new M1 isn't going to be the most expensive on the shelf! God forbid what the others will be

    Footjoy sizing

    I went to a footjoy fitting day a few months back. Always been 12 wide in Dryjoys, mainly because of the width. When I was measured they said I was 10.5 xw. Ends up with 11wide as they are off the shelf. So not that far off from what I was having. Your shoes will probably feel a bit tight so...

    50 rounds is that average ?

    Try to play at least twice a week. Plus club matches, comps etc that goes up to 4 times a week mostly. play darts another 2 days, and Monday night with the lads at the pub. Been with my Mrs 10 years, don't know what she looks like now👍👍

    Whats your worst medal score

    Shot 105 over the May Day weekend. Went out 2 days later and shot 75!! Good job I can just laugh off the bad rounds. Got used to them over the years

    Footjoy shoe fitting

    Just like to echo gjbikes words. Really good day despite the weather. Fantastic hospitality from the footjoy and golf monthly crew. And a big thumbs up for the new shoes👍👍

    Paultons Park closing???

    Yeah when I heard it I was surprised. Always packed out with societies and non members. Hope it isn't true. It's not the greatest course in the land, but never like to see one close its doors.
