    Range Finders

    had mine for 10 years or so, no slope function still works a treat. I always work out if its front, middle or back and adjust a few yards + or -. I use it for a lot more than a pin though. distances to carry tree's, bunkers etc. I'd save the money and just hit to the middle of the greens for now.

    Violence on the golf course

    only once, we used to have an issue with teens running onto the course near one of the greens and stealing the ball. quite funny thinking about it now knocking it close to the pin only to see a kid run on and pick up your ball! anyway one member chased some of them off one day with a iron in...

    Old Inactive Handicap

    I had an answer back from my club yesterday. It was only two rounds that count as the other 11 are pre WHS. The lowest being a 5 over so the adjustment of -2.0 off that would explain why the sudden drop. thanks all makes sense now.

    Old Inactive Handicap

    Hi all, more confusion regarding my handicap! my new club has found my old CDH Number and linked it to my Howdidido account so I've been told no need to do three cards just to start entering qualifiers. However its now got me playing off 3 (2.9) rather than 5 o_O any idea why I'd have been...

    Top courses UK

    you can have a great trip to Cornwall with relatively 'cheap' golf. few great courses down here with Enodoc being the standout for me! Trevose also very good. If you stop north Cornwall too then you can also play some in Devon too.

    400 Yard par 5s for Ladies

    Think its to short for her clearly but the average lady I'm sure its not. Played Sunday and saw a lady going into a par three 150 yards with a driver. nothing wrong with it as long as handicap reflects that. maybe when practicing play the shorter par 5 as a par 4 to get more of national feel...
