I don’t even know where to start. All weekend I’ve been riding the high of my first ever Hole in One! A sweetly struck 8 iron to a 172yd pin (downhill) hit the front edge of the green and seemed to trickle down forever and pause on the rim. The fellas I was with hesitated in anticipation as it...

Not got a bad word to say about Danny as he’s a hometown hero for me. Holds my home course record, won the masters and is just an all round good guy. but then again I’m biased. Good win Danny, good to see you bounce back

I can’t believe no one has jumped at this! I’m a Sheffield native, can you point me in the right direction please? Thanks for posting

I can’t confess to watching Women’s Golf regularly but I must confess, it was utterly exhilarating to watch! I found myself hooked, what great ambassadors for the game, well done ladies!

The handicap system is in place to make the game of Golf fairer for everyone and to suit players of all abilities. It also serves the function to enable all players to be competitive. Across all of the sports, it’s probably the one that works the best. The scoring system is initially complicated...

I’ve been playing a year and struggling to break 100 regularly at my home course. After playing a few away days and comfortably beating 100 including The Brabazon (off the championship tees) and also the JCB. Going sub 90. I started to think maybe my home course is quite hard and discovered...

My home course (Bondhay Golf & Country Club - Nottinghamshire) finishes with an absolute scorecard wrecker! Golfshake.com have it in their top 50 hardest par 5’s in the UK. A 544 yard par 5, trees and bunkers all the way down with 2 lots of water to go over, on to an elevated 3 tier green. It’s...

I’ve heard off a few people this is the best way to go as it keeps any pressure off your shoulders by not chasing a score or playing over aggressive shots etc

That’s encouraging to read as my first handicap was 23.6 and I’m hoping to get down to bogey golf by the end of the year

I’m quite confident with my longer irons and my driver is the best club in my bag. It’s my short game (100 yards and in) that lets me down. I probably do play overly aggressive at times but I’d say 4/10 it works out in my favour so probably a point to note about course management. Hope you...

No way! That’s crazy/amazing in equal measure if true

:oops: Must be some feeling that! How long have you been playing? Every golfers dream surely?

Cracking stuff! Sounds like it’s coming together nicely!

That’s so bittersweet, totally understand why you’d feel that way but still that is unbelievable golf and surely before you tee’d off someone told you that you’d shoot 2 over today, you’d have snatched their hand off! Hope you get the chance again soon
