    Air Fryers … any good / recommendations

    Still using our multicooker regularly, and just added a second 2 drawer one to the stable. Probably not getting quite the same use as when we first got it, but not far off. We cook a mixture of regular favourites and new experiments.

    Golf Random Irritations

    Being 20 yards short of the green on both the 2 closing par 5s and walking away with bogey on both. I'm still kicking myself 2 days later. :mad:

    Golf App AppleWatch

    It's not so much for the scoring, but the stats, fairways, GIR. putts etc. If it didn't do that I wouldn't bother. I'd just use a card.

    Golf App AppleWatch

    18 Birdies is still free for the scoring part. There are premium pay features but I never felt the urge to upgrade.

    Golf Random Irritations

    Big society out in front of us yesterday, and they had no intention of letting anyone through. 5 hour round, and to cap it all one of the lads in the group in front was having an absolute nightmare. His mates had abandoned him and were more or less playing their own game a shot ahead of him...

    The great drive for dough putt for show debate thread.

    I like the "Lowest Score Wins" take on this debate. Paraphrasing as I don't have the book with me, it's something like "Assuming no glaring weaknesses in your game, distance is always better. Unless there is a very pressing reason not to hit the ball as far as you can off the tee, such as...

    On Course Lesson Etiquette?

    I had an on course lesson with a pro from a different club last summer. The pro I was having the lesson with contacted the resident pro to ask for permission. Fair to say I didn't play out of my skin, and it was therefore a useful experience.

    Went for an iron fitting yesterday, as a bit of a sceptic...

    It's more like your wife deciding to have a boob job, letting you choose the shape, and letting the milkman choose the size.

    Air Fryers … any good / recommendations

    We got a Ninja Foodi for xmas. Had a couple of goes at chips, once air fried and once steam fried, but not had a chance to play properly yet. What's people's take on the best way to do chips? Mine were hand cut, soaked in water for a while then rinsed, dried and sprayed with veg oil. Tasted...

    Hole in One or Not

    I've pull hooked a pitching wedge into the trees on a short par 3 and then holed the provisional for par. I don't count it as a hole in one. Fair to say I didn't look as hard for the original ball as my playing partners did.

    Ben Sayers Electric Trolley

    A mate has one a couple of years old. The front wheel has a tendency to clog up with mud at this time of year. He seems to spend a lot of time poking at it with a stick because there isn't much clearance between the wheel and the mudguard. My Motocaddy and the 2 Powercaddys in the group seem to...

    The Whisky Thread

    If you have the little wooden box, that's worth a few hundred quid. Don't drink it before researching! Edit: Sorry, just read the following posts

    WHS abuse

    I am now aware that it shouldn't be. Up until an hour ago I wasn't aware I was doing anything wrong, and that it was legitimate because the app allowed me to do it. None of them are "solo rounds", they are all with other players. My belief was that a verifier had to hold a handicap, as the score...
