Last tee of the day, too warm for the deer…

Silvermere is £15.50 for 110 balls, £12 for 70. Hindhead’s range is £3 for 30 which is slightly more cost effective but there’s no frills. Playing 9 holes with 2 balls is free, or at least included in membership. I’ll go to Silvermere once or twice a year if I’m desperate, sometimes I’ll hit...

A round where it all came together, still felt like I was steering the driver but shot my lowest round on the home course of +2 72. Everything was simply tidy. Mentally I felt in a different place for all 18 holes, didn’t overthink each shot, just pre shot routine, get comfortable and swing...

Not too bad considering the amount of rain we’ve had. A couple of soggy spots that’s mainly attributed to the road running alongside 16. Greenkeepers are doing a great job of directing traffic etc.

Vokey has a wedge selector tool, I know you’re not looking at vokeys but it could steer you in the right direction as a lot of the grinds between manufacturers are similar. Worked great for me...

What was supposed to be 9 holes turned into 16. Much better with the flat stick, rolled a few on to save par and a birdie on 14. A few chunked chips but understandable given how soft and wet it is at the moment. Took the demo Qi35 driver out. Not convinced…. It’s very grey looking, prefer the...

New Titleist AVX. I’ve experienced more consistency since switching to new balls. AVX lower spin suits my game too, firmly believe it does what it’s supposed to. I’ll play the odd bounce game with something I’ve found but always a urethane covered “premium” ball. Definitely less consistency…

Nicely done Homer 👍🏻

Great to get out, tee to green pretty good but heavens, I couldn’t putt!

I wore my FJ pro sl’s the most last year. Not only were they comfortable and waterproof but I find them to be very stable on sidehills etc. You MUST go somewhere that can check sizing however. I thought I was a normal 9 and I wasn’t. This year I’ve gone for some Ecco Biom C4. Have only worn...

Is there more info or a link to the problem? I know someone who works at TM and would love to know what he thinks.

I’ll give the Demos a few rounds when our pro shop get them but I cannot see me buying one. £529 for the TM and £579 for Titleist - crazy money but someone has to pay for Rory’s 200m contract….

I played the Hotchkin last year and was genuinely shocked at the amount of stones in the bunkers - my 54 degree wedge still wears a huge dent on the toe. I appreciate that there’s so many bunkers the expense would be astronomical but I can’t help but feel it’s a cop out as some are just about as...

18 yesterday and about time I put a card in… not a great idea. The thin toe irons had disappeared thankfully but I’m still very steep on everything - big divot on approach to 5 must have been 30 degrees out to in 😂 Scraped it round in 84 with 3 lipouts and a completely duffed drive on 17. On...

… and I’ve somehow forgotten how to hit an iron. Thin toe anyone? Go again tomorrow…
