    Musselburgh Links Tee-box signs

    lol. He owns a waste disposal firm and they renovated a lot of the course about 10-15 years ago he said. They've been sat in a tea-chest that entire time!

    Musselburgh Links Tee-box signs

    This is straight out of Only fools and horses. I'm having my dinner tonigt when my grandfather walks in with the paper and asks me if I've read the article on Msselburgh being named as officially the oldest golf course in the world. He then proceeds to tell me that he has seven tee box signs in...

    How much for lessons?

    How much do you guys think I should be paying for an hours lesson? I'm gonna grudge it but as soon as i start seeing improvements i'm sure it'll be the best money i've spent on this bloody game!

    How long did it take before you broke...

    I've been playing about 18 months to 2 years now. Think I've broken 100 once or twice tops. Now that I've got a sensible job and manageable routine I'm gonna really throw myself into it and concentrate on mastering this bloody game!!!!!!!!!!

    Slice to hook!!!!!!!!!

    When I first took up golf I hd a slice. I didn't extend my arms out from my body and failed to turn my hands over when striking the ball. I corrected that after a couple of lessons and now something else is creeping in that I am at a loss for. My drives more often than not fade away high and...

    Mallet or blade

    It's over. Me and the ping UG-LE have had our final spat and I'm booting it out. I persevered with the putter even though I've always preferred blade style putters. So I'm after advice from the depths of knowledge you guys have! I think my swing path is out to in, (as in I swing slightly away...

    Grips and their lifetime....

    I've had my clubs about ayear now. (G5's, 3 hybrid 4-SW irons. Sasquatch 3 wood and driver. Titelist wedges) I'm pondering getting them regripped but I'm curious as to the expected life of a decent grip? I don't think it helps that they're dragging along each other when I put them in and out...

    The Tiger Woods show.

    To be fair to SKy they were jus piggy-backing on the back of the US networks coverage. And we all know there's as much chance of me hitting a hole in ne as there is of them showing anyone other than Tger. Personally I still thought it was great viewing though. Gripping stuff and I'm beginning to...

    Dress Codes

    Personally I would never consider wearing anything other than trousers, polo shirt and decent shoes. I am a fan of thenew roll neck typethings though. I think they are here to stay and the comfort and ease of movement they provide i excellent. Dress codes evolve,they will keep doing so.
