    On the subject of stableford points.

    i played in a 36 hole society do a few months ago and a bloke called Ray who was playing of 24 managed 3 points over the 18 in the morning. He duely came out in the afternoon and his score over 18 in the afternoon- 2 points. 5 points over 36 holes- beat that!

This seems like a very friendly forum by the way, without people venting frustrastions in their own lives via pedantic rants; this is most refreshing.

    pirate golf balls

    not at all, I do want some, but I don't know where to get them. I just thought they would be fun to use on a practice round, going for those 340 yard par 4s.

    pirate golf balls

    Hi all, Has anyone heard of pirate golf balls, which are slightly smaller and heavier? Apparently they go an extra 30-40 yards and are, obviously, banned in competions etc.
