    Is this wedge legit?

    My point entirely. I'm sure those with much better eloquence could probably put the case across a lot better, but if you've purchased an item from ebay and then have to question if it's genuine then you've clearly missed the common sense bus. Why not ask the seller to confirm it's authenticity...

    Is this wedge legit?

    Refer you concerns to the seller, then ebay. I can't speak on the behalf on the forum in general, but there's a fair chance that nobody is really interested in your buying habits.

    Is this wedge legit?

    Take the club to an authorised retailer who will be able to tell you whether or not the club is genuine. If you're not 100% certain of it's authenticity, then ebay is probably one of last places to purchase a club - and then question your purchase. However, if you use Paypal, then you have an...

    What do you do?

    If you see a FC break the rules you call them on it - what they do afterwards is up to them, but at least they cannot claim ignorance and you cannot say you did nothing. If nothing else, the aim is to enlighten and educate, but ultimately the onus lies with the player in question who made the...

    Creaking shaft

    Creaking usually means a weakness in the epoxy - it happens. It is unclear whether or not the shaft and adapter are a factory install from Cobra - if they are, then you may get a warranty repair. If they're not, then you don't have much of a leg to stand on unless ESC have some form of guarantee...

    Asking for advice

    Sorry if it wasn't clear enough grammatically. "Best" was also meant apply to the noun "slope" as well. Meaning the best slope AND/OR the best landing area. Slopes, as you correct pointed out are a matter of relative information, but the "best" one to take or line on it are clearly advice. Far...

    Asking for advice

    You realise that you can ask as much advice as you want prior to the day of the stipulated round in competition, right? That also means you can do a bit of homework yourself and find out as much info as you can before the comp. I would have thought it would be fairly simple to find out a few...

    Asking for advice

    Rule 8 is pretty self explanatory in what advice (including line of play) may be asked. "Best" lines are clearly advice and not information. Similarly, "best" landing areas or slopes is "advice" rather than information.

    Newspaper Article Regarding UK Amateur Golf Decline

    I think you've hit the nail on the head. Lots of clubs still struggle despite introducing measures like relaxed dress codes or similar ideas. Similarly, some clubs with decidedly dated values seem to be doing very nicely. So clearly, the decline is somewhat area specific rather than the whole...

    From the article... so the future of golf lies in the hands of women?

    Shirt and a Tie

    I voted for the nearest thing to: "when they ask for it". I don't make the rules - I just respect the wishes of those that do.

    When is the right time?

    +1. Call it immediately. If you don't, it can only make matters worse - like more penalties! If your FC or PP makes an infringement, it's best to call it when there's still a chance for them to: 1. Correct their error 2. While they can still recall the incident in question 3. Nobody wants a DQ

    Galvin Green

    Long story short - if you keep them long enough to justify their cost, then they're just about worth it. I haven't seen any great designs or superior quality that would make them a cut above anything else, but you must at least expect them to last - and they more or less do this pretty well. If...

    Switching Electric suppliers

    Switched to OVO and haven't looked back. You can manage your account online and it's cheaper than the other "big 6" companies who all boast about their "best" deals. Here's what they don't offer that OVO does though: they pay you interest on the money you're in credit on your account - 3%...
