    Iron head covers, Yes or No?

    Hi All, Wondering what everyone’s thoughts are on the use of iron headcovers? Just bought some new irons (T100s) and thinking of getting some to keep them in good condition but there seems to be a stigma around using them.

    Opinions on BRS - Help me!

    How Much! Odyssey Putter

    a 3 foot putt is worth the same as 300 yard drive! Why not pay the same money! Putting 25-36 putts per round - Driver maximum 13 times during a round. (well at my course 13 times) Which should you be paying more money for?

    How many times do I have to learn the same lesson?

    No exactly what you mean! My upper body is way to dominant so an over the top swing is a curse in my game. Slow it down, start the down swing with the lower body. Problem solved! but noooooooo lets crush the crap outta it and ponder why it goes right!

    Bridge over ditch

    The bridge is an immovable obstruction - so rule 24-2 applies. The ball is not in the hazard because it is sat on the bridge. So its not touching any part of the hazard.

    Women pay the same, but aren't allowed Saturday Morning Tee Times....

    Lets be honest, I pay my fee's and I'm not allowed to play during ladies time slots? or seniors time slots? or reserved time slots? Should I complain? Unfortunately at my club the "Men's" section is very much larger than the "Women's" section - so Men's comp's are set on either Saturday or...

    Why is there no Tiger hysteria this week?

    Because he's back regularly playing on the Tour again. He's answered the critics questions that he's back and swinging well. Wait until he wins within the next few weeks - hysteria will return.
