    Budget grips

    Had a bad round today, realising im gripping the club too hard, feel like the club is slipping out of my hands. I've put it off for long enough, so think need new grips. The one's I got with the (2nd hand) clubs are Black Widow Widow Maker. I like the feel of them but have golf pride on my...

    Playing with strangers

    I ended up catching a 3 shall up a few week back. Rather than letting me go ahead they let me tag along. Had a good laugh with our bad shots. Even managed a couple of good ones including a long putt. it's good to meet up with strangers as you never know what level of play that are at. And...

    "Nobody buys 5 woods anymore"

    Putting Problems

    Tried to practice my chipping on the fields while out with the dog, but he'd grab the ball on the back swing then drop almost straight away. Sit back and wait for me to try again. Id have to launch his ball and try chip it before he gets back. good for pressure shots :)
