    Changing courses

    Fyi as an update to this, I just got in this year. I’ve decided for now to accept but also retain my current club, at least until this year and then make a decision. A lot of money but can change my current club to monthly DD which eases the pain somewhat

    I bought today.....

    yeah got a notification this morning and just looking at that - nicely timed. Just a shame the new Callaways they have reduced arent full face ones (really like them for LW at least) updates - ordered a PXG Sugar Daddy 54 (not brand new but was spotless). I have a new 58 degree at home that can...

    Annual subscription 2026

    Dalmahoy up 3% this year. £1285 for full membership if paid in one go (£119 otherwise). Can never complain about the value we get - two courses, driving range and book of discounts. The flip side is how busy it gets in summer with visitors and the course condition is never much more than...

    Just how good is Scheffler?

    100% the best since Tiger, and doing it in fields that are far stronger than Tigers early days too. Im sure the interest will wane but can easily see him doing a grand slam of majors, getting 8+ majors and 40+ PGA wins

    It’s always reasonable. The greens last summer were the best they have been since I joined, but it’s just gets a bit scruffy round the edges from lack of staff. E.g. bunkers aren’t great, patchy grass near high traffic areas, tee boxes were poor last summer due to the dryness etc. Still in...

    I’d probably have to give it 30 mins at least. Barnton will be the worst. Saving grace is you are against most of the traffic but it’s not the 5 mins I’d be used to getting to Dalmahoy

Its really local (2 miles, 5 mins), and have a few pals as members (such as 2 neighbours). Got to know a few members too, and enjoy the winter league we...

A few weeks ago a got a KBS Carbon GPS putter shaft from Temu and replaced the stock steel shaft in it (keeping the press grip). Its been a monster and...
