mono mate, for your qoute to make sense: "Money talks mine keeps saying goodbye" you need a comma "Money talks, mine keeps saying goodbye" I assume as you're only 15 you are studying GCSE English? I'm not being a d*ck, i'm an education professional who works at the UKs larged exam board...

Mono are you not 14 (21-02-94)? under 16 is difficult - have you tried glass collecting at a working mens club or washing pots at a restaurant? I think due to the short hours (and probably cash in hand :eek:) that they take on little nippers like yourself.

it looks like that all-the-time as its sheltered and lit up by 'chillfactor' - no rain or natural light can get past! yeah its expensive but good facilities. to be honest i think the American Golf Store attached is useless and i wont be buying anything else from them. bad past experiences :(

no not had the chance yet - will defo be giving it a go though! have you seen/played this - http://www.manchestergolf.co.uk/champminigolf.php looks pretty good, especially as i cant putt for blummin toffee :D should make for good practice. Its a great range although a little pricey - maybe...

before the round: Green Tea / Innocent Smoothy / cereal + milk on course: Powerade / banana / Promax Diet Bar / Eat Natural Cranberry & Macadamia Bar

mono - (is this after mononucleosis also known as kissing disease in America???) I have lessons at Playgolf Manchester (link: http://www.manchestergolf.co.uk/) and cannot recommend the staff highly enough. Both Adrian Rogers and Pete Styles are top-blokes and excellent teachers. not only that...

i've had a bike tire explode at 60psi and that nearly ruptured my ear drum - wouldnt like to be next one of these when it goes 'pop'...

Hi MikeH, sounds like a great idea - i have posted a few swing videos (via youtube) for comment on the forum. any specifics - club, etc.? Mike

Goldeneye, Every edition of the 'Golf International' magazine (the best around in my opinion) has the swing photos you are after - both front and side - by a different golfer each month with detailed description of each stage. Well worth a look, link below...

Hi mackenzie, sorry should of replied to you in my last response. Yeah Adrian is fantastic, very friendly and made me feel completely at easy from the very first lesson - when i was basically utter sh*te. I have a course lesson booked with him in a couple of weeks - really looking forward to...

Dave, that is excellent! how did you take those stills? its the reason why i put my swing on the forum, to gain peoples opinion on the good and most definatley the bad points of my swing. i totally agree that i need to work on the takeaway position. dont worry i wouldnt take offence to...

Ooooops getting my years mixed up, that'll teach me to log on after a 10hr day. Sorry 2007 not 2008. FFTD - yes mate had to get Vokeys, the Pro at Reddish made me an offer i couldnt refuse! let me know when you fancy a knock? Yep i agree about the hands at 9 o'clock, and i definatley struggle...

howdo all, below is a link to my latest attempt at a golf swing, the video was taken at last nights lesson (my 18th). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94n3g19XUH4 i know their are still issues but overall i'm alot happier with my swing now and would like other golfers opinion? i first picked...

Ok does anyone else have problems with non-members on the course? A couple of nights ago i went out for a round after work, lovely sunny evening. As i walked up the 15th fairway i noticed a guy dressed all in white with a fishing hat, fishing rod and a huge bottle of ice white lightening cider...

My brother took me to play 9 holes at a local munci a couple of years ago and even though i took probably 10 shots a hole i just loved the game. I purchased a Ram beginners set of clubs in Feb 2007 and with a mate from work i headed to the range to practice hitting some balls. As i showed no...
