    St Andrews courses November

    Hi everyone, which courses would you recommend? I quite fancy the Castle course but others have been recommending Jubilee and new over it. Any opinions? Particularly in November too. Thanks!

    Alnmouth/Dunstanburgh

    I’m not a massive fan of Seahouses to be honest. The holes across the road are very wet and bar a couple of very pretty par 3s it’s not the most exciting, that’s just my view though. I echo what other people have said, Bamburgh is a great track. A little bit further up the road is Goswick...

    Gleneagles

    Thinking of booking a trip to Gleneagles, now the decision of which course to play. What would you choose and why? PGA obviously appeals due to the Ryder Cup but reviews aren't so great from what I can see... Thanks!

    Winter golf in the NE - qualifier comps

    Hello all Looking at a winter membership in the NE where there might be scope to play in qualifier comps. Dunstanburgh have a winter deal on but with no qualifier comps it's not as attractive. Does anyone play anywhere in the region that has qualifiers through the winter? Thanks!

    Anyone played Warkworth?

    I've always found Foxton to be wetter and in worse condition than Warkworth and Alnmouth Village. Enjoy, hopefully we are due some better weather soon!

    Anyone played Warkworth?

    We always have a drive up in the winter as it's typically one of the driest. They've just put summer tees back on recently which makes the course a lot better. In terms of whether it'll be a bog, there's a usually a wet patch around the 1st green as it's at the bottom of a hill and then around...

    How much for lessons?

    Our pro is doing a pre-season programme for £150. Unlimited lessons from January through to March, been in once a week. Full GC2 access and on course when practical to do so. Great value.

    Taylormade Paint Quality - disappointed

    Did you catch it a little fat when you marked it on the toe? Unfortunately I have found that if you have either a black or traditional face that it scuffs up badly if you catch one fat when the ground is particularly gritty in the winter. Black will just be more obvious on the eye!

    Costa del Sol golf break

    Does anyone have any recommendations for booking a golf tour in and around the Costa del Sol for this time next year? I wouldn't mind a smaller outfit or two to compare against the likes of Golf Breaks / Your Golf Travel. Also does anyone have some must play courses that you think we should...

    TM M4 three wood

    I tried the 3 wood at Close House last week after my driver fit, good looking club and seems to travel. Not hugely different to my 2017 M2 so will be sticking with that for the time being.

    Distance gains from Balls

    Golf In The North East - Dry Course

    Warkworth is our go to in the winter, always dry enough bar a couple of patches on the 1st and 6th. On grass tees albeit some of them are winter tees and not in the best shape but the greens are really good and roll well all year round. Honesty box and no need to book a tee time makes it good...

    Adidas shoes

    My last two pairs of Tour 360 Boosts have done the same as has a mate. I've given up on Adidas golf shoes because of it!

    Titleist Thursdays .... any good?

    I went to Close House for this yesterday, was a really good experience and the bloke from Titleist and plenty of shafts including the premium spec Tour AD range. Was quite scary how much further the right combo in the 917 went in comparison to my 915 :confused: 28 yards in total on a comparable...
