I was rather sad to see Sam go. Although he seemed a bit of a dick early on, he kind of mellowed on me. Still, at least it made for a relaxed and amusing Uncloaked. The previous 2 with the lunatic harridans were pretty tough going. I'm curious about the next step. I think I'd kill Jessie and...

Oof. Just seen the highlights. Even a couple of comments here didn't prepare me for Tommy's fit :eek: He still has Nike shoes on. I think. Could barely see them under the baggies...

Just read the stats. They're widely available on-line. Less people are killed and seriously injured at 20mph than 30. Personally, I think it's a fair compromise.

Man who analyses numbers in golf for a profession agrees with Orikuro shocker. ... https://golf.com/instruction/putting/common-putting-strategy-worst-advice-play-smart/

Agree about 1. being untrue. Greg Chalmers (best putter on pga tour for years) is always yapping on about this on Crossfield's pod. Says that once he's not likely to hole a putt, he's just trying to get it close. If you try and get past the hole every time, there are going to be times when...

Think how much they'd have won with decent sticks...:eek: Chalmers suggested that rather than rolling back the ball to combat distance in the pro game, they should just all have to use Nike drivers :) In all seriousness, clubs can obviously have characteristics which suit some players but not...

I think that there's still some duff kit knocking about, even at the pro level. Greg Chalmers (aussie, decent player) tells an amusing (in hindsight) story about how truly terrible the Nike club deal he signed was. I think the driver was particularly terrible. PXG drivers got a terrible knock...

I'd just get rid of her, pronto. Even if they recruited her, they'd probably end up getting beaten by her. Keep the stupid ones alive and get rid of the smart ones seems to be a winning tactic to me.

Haha AFTV are the least of Arsenal's unlikeable problems. Surely most people only watch it when they lose, in which case it's 5 minutes well spent. It starts and ends with Arteta for me. Maybe he's a lovely chap in real life, but comes across as a compete dick on the touchline and inbues his...

Hilarious telly. Really surprised to see a Met officer jumping to conclusions based only on weird personal assumptions and misquoting evidence to stitch people up though... she must have stuck out like a sore thumb on her day job. I think I'd be asking for a retrial if she'd been anywhere near...

Yup. Dismissing it as a ch4/guardian stitch up rather ignores the fact that all the producers appear to have done is hand over a nice length of rope. My own impression (anecdata alert) is that this is a generational thing. One of my mates was a member at my club many years ago and had a tale...

Haha. not very well put by me. I counted Goswick as Berwick ('cause in my tiny by mind it is) so didn't really include it in my directions. I didn't include BC on my list, so it was discounted from my dodgy geog altogether. Apart from that, I'm bang on...

I played along this coast a couple of years back. First of all, it's great, I recommend it to all as a UK tour. "Best" is different for different people . First off, they're all nice courses with friendly people, decent value for what they are, and lovely scenery. Goswick is (imho) the best...

Yep, there's roll-ups, and there's... slightly more exclusive roll ups :) . Our club sounds like yours - our Tues and Thurs roll-ups are genuinely open to all and (with the help of the pro) actively encourage new members to join in. After all, it is a golf CLUB, not just a bunch of strangers...

Maybe it's because I'm verging on the elderly, but I'm never exercising through an injury, given a choice. Once we reach a certain age, being able to keep doing stuff is really important, and careful maintenance is a lot more important than peak performance 😀.
