100% behind this!

Why, not starting an arguement more interested in your reasoning.

This, but with no relief on the subs until 67

This used to be my attitude - “ I’ve got to play once a week to make it worth while “ and my membership become less enjoyable especially during wet months, then a close friend made me look on it different. Would you rather pay 150 to play 1 enjoyable round per month or 150 to play 4 un...

After losing focus in November and December for personal reasons , it’s back in full swing, however there’s a weird situ in 2026. why do 50% of the people using the gym now feel the need to either v-blog it, stream it or film it on an insta 360? Our gym has put up no mobile phone signs...

This is exactly why I play between 7.30 & 9am. We run an open tee sheet in this period and groups do not tee off until the group in front is near at the green. For the large percentage this is where they play their chip on from and it’s around 400yds from the tee uphill. Spaces the groups...
