Short answer not really, it’s an ok layout, I think some of the new holes are good. Holes 3,4,7,8,11,12,13,14,15,16 and 17 are essentially the same as before or just a tiny bit different than what was there before. Only stayed as all friends are there.

My club (wexham park, Slough) have increased it from around £1300 to £1600 but mainly due to all the works being completed and ending the membership price freeze they had, I’m not going to renew as I would need to play 4/5 times a month to get value and can’t do that, also after all the works...

How stable are the CT models, assuming making them smaller and compact reduces the width?

I have a Qashqai, can get two carry bags no problem but would struggle with more, could remove parcel shelf and pop a third on top.

Some lenders won’t allow you to borrow for speculative investment's, I’ve done it in the past and it’s worked out but it’s a risk. Ive been buying shares in my employer for years (monthly share save schemes) and have that many I need to diversify as majority of my investment pot is in one...

Watched the video of Rick Shiels today and thought the course look great, looking forward to playing it soon.

If he doesn’t want to be friends with you on the app surely that’s his prerogative?

Seen a lot from the course on social media, all very complimentary, Any one that joined played yet?

Rick Shiels was down there doing a vlog, they are getting a bit of hate over their prices. They are steep but similar to The Shire and West London 9 over the road is pricey for a 9 hole course. Will still be playing it to see what it’s like for next years membership.

Weekday non member is £80.

I swapped out my hybrids for FW’s last year, I’ve got a 3, 5 and 7 with the 7 being my favourite club in the bag, long and high and so easy to hit and consistent results.

Yes to PSR, similar to others already mentioned. I have one for putting which I have to force myself to do as I am more consistent when I do it but takes less than 30/40 seconds and can be done while others are putting, lining up etc

Had the same ball in play for 3 rounds now, probably only loose 12/18 a year so I buy new. I’m not a long hitting and not particularly wild when not playing well so tend to find my balls

I’ve just swapped to a titleist tour soft as I found I wasn’t getting much much from the pro v1 which I have used for a free years now. I saw I think it was Patrick Reed explaining that most amateurs don’t compress the ball enough so a low compression one is better. I feel that I’m getting...

Some titleist tour soft - played with one at the weekend and seemed to get more response from around the greens, more than I get from the prov v I normally use. Only problem I found was they might scuff up a bit too easy but can live with that.
