I am not a member of a club yet. That'll come later this year. And I'm under 35. Just. When I look around for somewhere to join, my main concern will be the course, but I will certainly be interested in the atmosphere. And by that I mean the dress code, the staff (helpful, rude etc), the other...

Mornin' all! Does anyone have any recommendations of a good pro in the Southampton or Portsmouth areas for lessons? The time has come for me to practice hard, and there's no better way to start than with some proper instruction. Also, if you know of any to avoid, please let me know! Any advice...

Bought the Nike M9 II Cart Bag to house my new VR_S Coverts last week. I bought this from Online Golf, and it came with a free Tri-Fold towel, which was a nice touch. First impressions of the bag were very good, with pockets for everything you might possibly need. I can fit in a set of...

Mornin' all! My back is busted again, and can't play with my new bats, so I'm sat here looking for something productive to do. Has anyone made any custom modifications to their kit? Upgraded your bag somehow? Maybe doctored your trolley? Have you created anything at home that you use on the...

I did wonder about that, but like I said, I really don't mind about the bags. (Incidentally, I wasn't the only one to try and buy them at this price. Some people tried to buy more than 10!) I'm just a little annoyed that they didn't tell me that they wouldn't sell them to me. A quick email...

Sorry chaps. I'm not getting them. Waited in until 3pm, then phoned the shop to ask when to expect my delivery. They said "it was obviously a mistake, and we can't let them go for £10 each. You should be getting an email explaining this any second." I don't mind not getting the bags, but...

I'll update the outcome tomorrow. My guess is that they'll be a no show, but stranger things have happened. Until tomorrow!

So far, I've not had any messages, so who knows? If they're coming, they'll be here by close of play tomorrow.

That's why I didn't name the retailer! Jealousy can't rear it's ugly head this way!

Don't get me wrong, I won't complain if they say no, but equally, I'm not above buying something at a snip, even if I think it's been mis-priced. If they tell me I can't have them, so be it.

Afternoon all! I'm sat at work, idly browsing golf gear I can't afford, when I stumble on a clear mistake on a reputable UK golfing website. They've labelled the Titleist Lightweight Reverse Cart Bag (in black) as £9.99, instead of the actual price of £99.99! So I instantly bought 3 of...

Such a shame. I was hoping you'd all say "we use it all the time! Looks dodgy, but its actually as kosher a tofu!". Never mind. The search continues. Cheers all!

Afternoon all! I'm looking for a good price on a set of GI irons, and stumbled across this site: www.bpwbristol.co.uk The offers they have seems a little too good to be true, and I don't want to get mugged off. Has anyone bought from here? Reviews? Any input is welcome. Ta, Gringo.

As for where to buy in smaller packs, you can pick up 3 packs of the Srixons on eBay, but the cost per ball is less if you buy 12 or 24. Obviously... I saw Srixons (can't remember which ball exactly) in Sports Direct the other day in a '24 balls for £16' deal. (I wasn't in there buying golf...

Cheers chaps. Much appreciated. Knowing that changes can be made post purchase, I think I'll go down that route.
