    Initial handicap

    I to only got my first handicap 2 months back and handed in 2 x 13 overs and 1 x 17 over. I was just as shocked to get given a 10!. However don't be put off by it, You will find that you actually get close to it once you play in some comps and start to think about your game more. And if not it...

    Problems hitting into the wind

    I have a fade as well and I also struggle in the wind due to the spin on the ball. I still hit the ball as hight but hit it softer with longer irons and that takes away the spin and gets me the distance

    Stopping the balls on hard greens

    what a difference a few more weeks of practise makes. Must be hitting the ball on the sweet spot as the balls are now landing softly and dead when I am attacking the pins! Time to start flag hunting!!

    No Roll .... Help !!

    I have the same issue i have a high left to right fade that looks great in the air but probably only has 10 - 20 yards of roll, Playing partner has a very low draw and he lands it 75% of the distance but can sometimes roll pass mine. I made a change on sunday where i lowered my tee. It looked...

    Stopping the balls on hard greens

    The greens here are immaculate. probably the best I have played in Essex, however they are just so quick and the bounce when the ball hits them is unreal. and if you even try and roll the ball on when you get a chance they are tricky greens and the ball will just roll off the green with the slope

    Stopping the balls on hard greens

    Just what the course pro adviced me to use. I got on well with the tru soft balls. Have 3 dozen velocity left so may be a case of switching over to the tru soft balls again. They are cheaper as well

    Stopping the balls on hard greens

    Most holes have a front edge bunker or a small hill that can send it left or right before the green
