I ditched the driver and started using 3 wood off the tee, only giving up some distance but it was easier to control. I got down to a 17 handicap that way. Recently started to hit the driver again and first couple of comps scored well and now down to 15 but that being said, if the driver...

Ballycastle is a great course.

Would have him in the Ryder Cup team in a heartbeat

Edenmore out in magheralin. About 20 mins away

That put me off joining Dunmurryeven thou it’s a 3 wood away from my house. Balmoral do a draw every month and that’s your tee time for that month. The club I am at now it’s fastest finger first although some tee slots are reserved in advance for the captain etc. That fairer and seems to...

The whole Sergio hazard drop at 18 was enough for me. He practically manufacture a shot that he would have hit the stand so he gets a drop. Any mere mortal playing has to play it or take a penalty drop. But the whole time it took for the ruling etc was enough for me to turn it off

Whether he used the rules to his advantage or not is immaterial. On a normal golfers saturday comp that ball would never have been found thus reloading and being penalized stroke and distance. Not fair that Pro's have the galleries to look for their wayward tee shots, also the lack of shouting...

I have the HTX Type R irons and I love them. When I hit one sweet it makes a lovely sound and goes a mile

Thinking of somewhere closer to where I live as the club I am at now is 30 mins away. Shame cause it's a good course etc. No joining fee would be good

Just like the title, I am looking for recommendations for golf clubs in the Belfast area. Thanks

Thinking of getting one of in 19 degree loft. Anyone used one? Are they good? Bit concerned about the draw bias as my bad shots are hooks :)

The way I hit my driver the putter will gain me yards :)

Seriously considering trading in the driver for the Versa 9 O-Works. Must resist :)

I play 3w off the tee for this exact reason. My 3w is normally straight or a gentle draw and doesn't lead to much trouble. I prefer to be on the fairway 150+ yards away than in bushes 100 yards away :)

I am in the habit of shouting Fore anytime the ball goes offline into trees or somewhere else where other golfers may be, as you never know where someone may be. I even shout for my playing partners if they dont shout early enough. My opinion is better to be safe than sorry, plus at least the...
