I suppose, given that the final WGC event is over in China - it gives them a week to get used to the place too - I wonder if thats part of the reason they are holding it there...

Is it not televised anywhere then? Sky doesn't seem to have it... Bristling with top-ranked players, but no coverage? Odd...

Hmm - won't be taking anything out with me. 15 years ago I bought a Taylor Made LCG Wedge while in NY for work, I carried it through with no issues, but I suspect its a take your chances thing, depending on how bad a day the customs officer has had... I think its about +30% if you do get caught...

Anyone know how the import duty/VAT system works if I purchase a golf club in the US, to bring back with me on the plane. I know the upper limit for 'other goods' for import duty was raised to £390 last year, so that should cover a driver I'd have thought, but would VAT be applicable, or is...

Sold - if my PMs are working that is!!

Just posted an ad for the 3 and 4 TWS Bafflers, if either of you are interested? Cheers

These have only been hit a handful of times, and I'm only selling to fund something else :) Didn't grow up with hybrids, and I bought these because everyone was saying how 'easy' they are, but there must be something wrong with my swing in that case! My 3 and 4 irons are flying really well...

I played a Pinnacle Gold Precision for the first time on Saturday - most consistent I've driven for ages, never had to look for my ball once. Will stop on the green with a well struck iron shot from the fw, though not from a deft wedge chip < 40 yds... I never play those anyway, preferring a 7I...

"Golf is not a Game of Perfect" is probably the most 'general' of Rotella's books. My game has definitely improved after reading it...

Medium is 34 waist, 30 leg? thats 34short in all other places innit? I need a 34/32 setup :( Oh, all mediums are gone anyway...

Rhys Davies, relatively local to me, and enjoy watching him putt. Shame he's not done more in the majors this year, but I think he could be a big name in the next few years...

Stand and Deliver, Adam and the Ants Red Scab was the B side...

Yep - I found that in my travels - but as it was US focussed, didn't pay it much mind - their hcaps are much more statistically based aren't they?

Cheers for that, but I didn't really want to start another list of 'x times a year' or 'x percent of the time' opinion threads :) I was really looking for anything statistically based, or with an explanation of the numbers.

This has been asked before, and I've done the searches to find lots of opinions on how often a handicap should be played to or beaten. Anything from 'a few times a year' to 4% have been touted as answers, but is there any official analysis on how often you should either a. Play to handicap...
