Every year i get excited about the masters, and every year i get frustrated with the TV coverage.

Playing fantastic team golf in a scramble tee to green and then not holing a putt...... (Florida Scramble, winning score 52 - worst score 61 - 26 teams)

The amount of golf shoes i have is ridiculous, all of the brands (ecco, FJ, addidas, NIKE) and in some cases if i liked them id buy the same thing in different colours. I will get a pair of the Strombergs as the grip on them was really good, our course is up and down, plenty of slopes so worth...

Hello Tashyboy, We also went on the stromberg testing day . Dr Paul Hurrion was the chap in charge of the pressure plates and it was fascinating to see how the weight transferred and how much of a difference the shoes made. My Lad took a pair home with him and has given them a hiding and yet...

I qualify as a senior this year....... that makes me officially old........ although according to my lad I'll never have to repair a pitch mark, rake a bunker or congratulate a junior again..

My 7i shaft got bent so i had a replacement from titleist and instead of fitting it with a grey MCC plus 4 they fitted it with a red one. so as the grey grips were 18 month old I bought some of the Golf Pride MCC plus 4 in red to match the 7i . i think i paid £30 for 12 , they've been on since...

My son had a stealth driver and the face popped out within the warrenty period, contacted TM and they sorted it out straight away and even sent the stealth 2 as his replacement. TM are fantastic if its within warranty but as the OP has found out once its out of warranty they dont want to know...

I honestly think i get excellent service with or without tipping, and i really enjoy chatting to the staff, we even ended up going out with them the one night. im happy to show my appreciation with a cash tip and i think the service level does go up a notch

I've been lucky enough to go to belek golfing a few times and give the bus driver a £5, the bell hops a £5, cleaners a £10 at the begining of the trip and a £10 at the end , then would give teh barman and waiting staff 100 lira each night. I've always found the service to be great but a regular...

Our subs are due in april so we'll wait and see how much it goes up this year but i'd expect 5% We have a sliding scale on age groups. Now i have skin in the game as my lad has just turned 18 so he's going to benefit from this greatly (well i am as im the one that pays his subs) If it were up...

If it's just a one of tournament and it keeps all the "only here for the beer" in one area away from me then crack on, but its not my cup of warm weak beer if im honest

we have the rubber crumb bunkers at our course (clay based) they are good as long as the sand is racked regularly otherwise all of the sand gets taken out of the heavily used areas and your club bounces off the rubber crumb enabling a 100 yard bunker shot out of a greenside bunker , trust me...

the code chaos are the spikeless version, they must be a few years old now but i'll get some more. adidas CodeChaos Golf Shoes GW5340

i had adidas 360's years ago (ryder cup edition with the europe logo) but the heel was a nightmare on them, first it hurt and then they disintegrated, so i gave up and stuck with nike and footjoy which are both pretty comfy then my lad outgrew his adidas code chaos so i borrowed them and will be...

We use the IG app and it works very well...... i really hope they don't make a complete pigs breakfast of it
