Not been in the game to long (4years) started off with run of mill clubs and then when i decided that i enjoyed this sport i thought i would buy a nice set. Because i was a lefthander i was influenced by Phil MICKLESON so brought Big Bertha set with X woods , sofar so good. H/C down this season...

Melton Mowbray, nice course very friendly.

Every now and then i pop down to Paulton Park's par three for a practise on my short game and for £10 if it's not busy you can go round all you want.

i agree, looks like a carpet laid over bumps.

Being a newbie i do not hit my driver to far (230)the problem is that it goes straight for 200 and then indicates left for 30. Driver in the cupboard for now. Getting used to 3 wood 180/190. no rush, i will keep practicing.,

Thanks all for your comments sofar ,i am human after all. Some days good, some bad, some damright awful but i keep coming back for more because i love the game.

I was speaking with a fellow golfer who asked me what i did after a round. i replied saying that sometimes a drink and a chat, a break for sandwich after nine. it depended on what time i had left. sometimes i just enjoy a round and go home. He said no wonder clubs are struggling if all golfers...

Can only play on days off and usually take the wife to work so around 10 is ideal ,Problem is the traffic,its so busy you have to leave far to early if teeing off earlier but sometimes i fit in 9 holes after 5 when time allows. ------------ Callaways H/C 22.2 just

Beginning of the season brought box of 50 river balls from JJB's,still got 30ish left.(still learning) but for £15 i dont mind losing some........... but if you do find them can i have them back please!

Been here a few months now and finding the chat and advice excellent. i have just got back from Hols and i thought that it would be an idea to inform the forum of the prices when we go aboard.Tunisia was the destination this year and we stayed at Port El Kantaoui. Two championship courses five...

Hi all, I play off 23 and i have had the same problem with my driver.So far left it was embarrassing ,so for now i use my 3 wood and find it easier. Driver taken to the range to get more practice and when comfortable i might put it back in the bag. This great game,good then bad but we always...

Hi Viscount, Just to let you know that last week i visited Teeofftimes and no need to use vouchers, it was cheaper through them. yesterday 8/7/10 a round of golf £10 at local course Quindell. started looking for next week. Callaways still in the bag. 22.2 should do better.

Hi everyone, Being new to the game i usually go down to the range and try and practice as though i am playing around of golf. Not the usual 4 hrs may i say. I pick a course that i've played and see how i go. I always seem to do well on the range and hope to put into practice what i have learnt...

Hi fellow golfer, I recently stopped being a member of a club and have reverted to pay and play. I find these vouchers to be a great help, you do have to double check with the club or their website to see when they can be used. Also sometimes the weather dictates their use and I have lost a few...

I everyone,still learning and new to this. After reading comments from my first enquiry could i now ask the forum if booking online for a tee is safe or would you book by telephoning to club. there are many websites offering tee offs cheaper than the club itself. Any recommends of known reliable...
