    Where do you buy your golf clubs from?

    For my irons and wedges I get custom fitted through our pro. He has a fitting studio, but also has a link with Wilson Staff as their warehouse is nearby, they also have a fitting studio with more options. Our pro gave me an amazing deal for Irons & wedges, I couldn't find them anywhere cheaper...

    Line on your ball

    Played with a guy a few weeks ago who did this on every tee and it was painful to watch!:( a couple of times he went through his pre shot routine, only to then decide he wasn't happy with the aim, readjust the line of the ball on the tee and go through his pre shot routine again :eek: I thought...

    Best golf coach on youtube ?

    I would 100% agree with Mike Malaska he makes everything so simple, you think to yourself, why have I been trying to over complicate things all these years! He has his own site, but you can get enough of his material on youtube. the two videos above were game changers for me

    One Length Irons for Beginners?

    Claude Harmon confessed on sky sports last year that he uses single length irons, must be something in it if one of the most high profile coaches in the game uses them :unsure:

    Melia Villaitana Benidorm

    Accommodation is excellent! a 5 min walk from the first tee or even a lift in a buggy if you are too lazy or hungover to walk. Beware the hotel bar is quite pricey. only 12 - 15 euros for a taxi into Benidorm for cheap food and drink. The courses are decent the Levante championship course is...

    Garmin Vivoactive 3 auto shot tracking a bit hit and miss, anyone else have this watch?

    I had a problem initially, watch worn on left hand (play golf right handed) my hand kept hitting the button during the swing which stopped it recording shots. I changed it around so the button was on my arm side and it seems to have done the trick. Sometimes still misses tee shots as it is...

    The Club secretary has come back and said that the player in question has only recently joined the club (during the winter) and brought his handicap of 8 with him from his old club.

    Increased handicap mid season

    I can’t find the cdh number as I’m not a member of that club, it’s another club in Scotland. I spoke to 3 former handicap secretary’s from the club I am a member of and none if us from looking at congu rules can fathom how this is possible🤔

    Increased handicap mid season

My brother in law played a pair a couple of weeks ago in a fourballs tie both were off of 8, tonight they played the same pair in a foursomes tie but one of their handicaps has increased to 11 in...
