    Would you want your tee box allocated based on driving distance?

    Both my home courses operate with a slope-system that calculates the amount of shots you get off your handicap. If you tee it forward you get less shots and vice versa. It works quite well over here as playing from the front tees has become a regular comp for the monthly medal. In terms of...

    People walking about the course, with kids

    +1 Was quite unnerving to have people suddenly appear behind mounds. My PP hooked a few into the crowds, made a least a few of the walkers more observant.

    SKLZ gold swing aid does exactly that. There's a couple of vids on YouTube that explain it. Recommend the one from Golftec Australia channel.

    Excepional Scoring Reduction??

    Had this happen to me. Had a great season where I practiced and played a lot and was rewarded for it having my HCP cut from 16.9 to 10.7. But, during the post-season review my club cut my HCP down to 8.7. Next season I barely had a round in the buffer zone and ended up with 15 +0.1s. Fantastic.

    Had my first one this year trying out a new course with a mate. 115 yard par 3. Punched a PW. It landed a foot from the hole, horse-shoed, stopped on the lip. And then dropped. It was awesome.

    The Masters - Winners Meal

    In response to the haggis, I would treat the guests to some Norwegian specialties: Starter: Rakfisk - fermented trout with raw red onion, dill and sour cream. Main: Smalahove - charred and boiled sheepshead with mash. Dessert: Fresh strawberries with milk and sugar.

    What Course Are You Most Looking Forward To Playing This Year?

    From what I could tell, it's quite the short course, but many approaches and teeshots are blind. Looks like the driver will stay in the bag quite a bit? Hopefully the greens will be better when we play it.
