    Handicap Change 2025

    Start 9.9 End 8.1 High 10.3 Low 8.1 Best round 5.3 Worst round 18.0 Average of all scores in 2025 - 11.4 26 counting scores, nearly all competitions. My 10.3 was after two rounds in April when a bunch of good scores dropped off, but since then it fell steadily through the year. Good short...

    General Play scores in winter at your club

    they have created a rated winter course this year at our place so you can put in a GP - though quite why anyone would want to is beyond me. Winter is for match play

    Shot tracking systems/watches/tags

    i used the V3 Shotscope for a year or so (though now only use it for GPS). The tagging and tracking was pretty good, and with the strokes gained stats you can see your weaknesses in your game. it does get a bit fiddly when you need to go and edit your shots when it misses some, especially putts...

    Texas Scramble

    we had a 2 man scramble in our member/guest invitation day a couple of weeks ago. -8 was the best gross score (from a 3 and 4 hcp). 2 man seemed a lot more enjoyable as a) you felt more involved and b) with it being two man you had a pair scoring for you so results were a lot more trustworthy!

    Church Stretton incident I just saw on Facebook

    I think the whole world seems to agree - EVEN if he is right (which im doubting given the lack of hard evidence), why would you keep going back to somewhere where you are disliked so much ? he keeps accross as very immature and petulant

    Church Stretton incident I just saw on Facebook

    i saw something that the clubs insurance company couldnt be bothered to fight it and just compensated him. why would you want to let someone who sued your club (and assume cost you money) keep playing??
