    Sir Nigel Farage?

    Perhaps, but then again he is a slipperly one ol nigel. He knows his audience, and also he relies on engagement to lend his posistion legitamacy, as he doesn't need to have a policy platform as such other than the EU is akin to a cross between Scrooge McDuck and Stalin.

    How far do I need to be able to hit it?

    Of course you could, but lets be realistic and say that playing easily to 12, is much less likely. Especially if you consider that scrambling stats over 30yd on the pga tour have tyrell hatton in first place with 55% up and down, the next closest is on 45%. So you would have to be better than...

    Eng v S.A. Test Series

    Wouldnt object to hales, its not as though we have that many options tbf, which is why i'd give malam at least one more test.

    How far do I need to be able to hit it?

    Depends on the course. If you can't reach GIR on more than a couple of holes then you'd struggle to play to 12 i would think.

    Eng v S.A. Test Series

    Westley and malan should get more game time. Malan has only had 4 innings, and got a couple of jaffas so cant take too much from that. Westley looks like he could work at 3 and without any other serious contenders will go to aus if he gets any sort of score vs WI. I would swop stoneman for...

    big game ahead - finding the balance

    Try to keep the ball in play as much as possible, just play steady golf; which i freely admit is easier said than done. Also, I find that having a visual image of what i want to do, really helps me commit to the shot. I find that if i make a point of taking an interest in how my playing...

    Brute of a par 4

    Oh don't get me wrong, i realise its not going to give mcilroy, speith, johnson et al. nightmares but for your average weekend warrior, walking off with 5, is a good result. Because i can reach in 2, i tend to bail out right, and like on saturday chip and putt (hopefully just the one or two) for...

    Brute of a par 4

    Borrowing an often used tv commentary phrase as a title, I'm going to step up and start my first thread. Playing in the comp Saturday, for the first time when it mattered, I parred our 4th hole, SI1, 4 for 3 for 3, great success:cool:! Not that impressive in itself, but our 4th hole is a bit...

    how long does a premium ball last ?

    Dark arts of village cricket. FYI, the best shot selection for the chap in question isn't to try and plant the front foot and smash it into cow corner. As regards golf vs cricket ball, no seam on a golf ball, wouldnt affect it anything like as much

    Rory out of PGA

    Be interesting to see how much correlation there would be between average distances, and the increased weights hes shifting in the gym.

    How do I measure the bounce on a wedge?

    Its easy peasy, you'll just need a trampoline, some step ladders and a blowtorch..... Or what fish said
