Bought this on a whim last month. Literally played 3 rounds, mint condition. Puts a brilliant roll on the ball, but for me I am just not comfortable with these big grips on putters. Was tempted to re-grip it but have settled on something else. It’s the 35 inch model...

Funnily enough I spent too much time last week reading online about EV cars. The Tesla Model 3 Long Ranges in particular. I currently drive a BMW 120d and the wife has a company car Outlander PHEV, which in the most part has worked well for short journeys ferrying in the kids about. Just 1...

The spring and autumn Texas scrambles are a great way to play this course. I’m going again on 19th April. We won it 2 years ago and first prize was another round ans overnight stay in the hotel, which is sensational. £400 split 4 ways.

Played there in a Texas scramble earlier in the year. Immense course and a cheaper way to play it. I will be going back next year

The European. Amazing course that is brutally tough, even more so if the wind blows. Played in a society comp their in a howling gail. 19 points won. One of my mates hit a near 400 yard drive down wind and into the wind hit driver on a 180yd par 3 and came up short

Turkish, I have a 910D2 driver head. In the last 18 months I have now accumulated 5 different shafts that I can easily change as they all fit the Titty driver. I really loved an Oban one in the 910 head, but have since procured a 915D3 head and the Oban with 915 head just doesn't feel the same...

What any 'remain' camp should be focusing on in Indy Ref 2 is to really question the SNP how they are going to bridge the gap between what they spend and what they receive: (from GERS report) Net Fiscal Balance 2014-15 This is the difference between current revenue and total public sector...

Great point Smiffy, I thought I'd mentioned it somewhere else, back in August last year :-)

I very much doubt this would have had any media attention if the HCOEG hadn't build such a fantastic course that has hosted many Opens and was so high profile. The majority of members voted in favour of allowing women to join, must be their constitution that meant 2/3rds were required to get it...

What a lot of folk don't realise is that Leicester do have some decent back up players, they have strength in depth, just not with household names. GK - Ben Hamer, Mark Schwarzer will be leaving so possible addition needed here RB - No decent back up for Simpson, Ritchie De Laet not great...

One of the best lessons I had was many years ago with the Pro at Shotts, 9 holes on the course. He effectively walked around with me (not playing) and we talked through each shot, what I was thinking in terms of how I had decided what shot to play. Ended up playing numerous mulligans to see...

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to grasp the idea that if you go from a 5 day a week service (for operations etc) to a 7 day a week service that you will need more Doctors. Absolutely a pointless exercise if all they intend to do is the same amount of operations/treatments but spread them...

But one of the main features on the governments proposal is to reduce the amount of hours a Junior Doctor can work over a set period of time. Therefore ensuring they get more rest and don't work excessively. The point being it should improve patient safety. Currently a Junior Doctor can sign...

Had a great time, company good, weather wonderful, course excellent, golf like a fiddlers elbow. Well played Karen (fairway dodger) and Merve the swerve (hopefully home safely now). JohnB and myself started like a house on fire, 26 points after 6 holes. We then managed to dovetail beautifully...

I may have got carried away! 10 E/W bets with Skybet, so looking for a top 8 finish for any of these: Poulter Casey Hoffman Leishman Berger Simpson Schwartzel Mickelson Matsuyama Rose Providing 1 of them manages that then all costs covered! On the nose with a different bookie Bubba Rory Day...
