    The Footie Thread

    Hello All, I dont normally do this so please take it easy on me, I am asking for help. I am an Oldham Athletic fan of 46 years. Sadly my club is in severe trouble and at risk of going out of business or dropping further into non league due to terrible ownership. We need new owners but our fans...

    Between these sets, which will be better for an absolute beginner?

    Honestly mate dont over think this game yet, there is a plethora of lovely shiney stuff out there that promises the world. Buy the Benross irons, stick with them until you realise its you not the clubs that makes the ball go off either side or rolls 20 yards off the Tee. Like I said and a few...

    Between these sets, which will be better for an absolute beginner?

    Ive only been playing on and off for two years so I have been where you are. I did have a set of the Benross HTX irons which were great, only sold them as my other half bought me a new set of Wilso staff D9s. You wont go wrong with the Benross, I still use a Benross Driver, Hot speed 10 which I...

    City break recommendations

    Rome for me is magical, very busy but a must see place. Other than that in Europe I would add Barcelona as my second followed by Lisbon. Paris is also nice as is Amsterdam but the first 3 are my faves of where I have visited as City breaks. Further away, New york and Chicago are great to see.

    Iron upgrade advice

    Like you I needed an upgrade from G15s which were great but I needed something to give me a bit extra. I am 50 years old with back issues and can't do a full swing. I have bought Wilson Staff D9s, what a difference they have made, easy to hit and they have great distance as well as getting loft...

    Fitted wardrobes

    We had a full wall of sharps fitted. The finished result in our bedroom is great, wardrobes are fantastic, the four holes in our second bedroom wall are not so great where the fitter drilled through. So, Wardrobes great, the chaos caused not so, and not great to deal with if you have issues...

    New golfer in need of club advice.(Benross)

    As others have said, Benross make good clubs. I've only been playing 18 months and after having, Callaway xhot, Ping G15s and Cobra SZ sets I've settled with Benross HTX compressors, love them and feel great for my slow swing, very forgiving too. Ping G15s were good but these feel much better...

    Utility Iron or 20° 4 Iron dilema

    Thanks your response, makes sense to me. I'm not too bad with my 5 iron off the tea but its not a strong lofted club so probably only going 180 max for me. I can hit decent drives most of the time but there are some long par 4s and 5s which due to the high coastal winds makes the driver a no go...

    Utility Iron or 20° 4 Iron dilema

    Good afternonoon all. Could any of you be kind enough to help with a query. Im thinking of purchasing a driving / utility iron as the driver on my course can sometimes see the ball get blown out to sea. I play with a set of Benross HTX gold with graphite shafts with the lowest iron being a 5...
