no real point to the question, was just curious!!

As the title suggest, this may seem like a daft question, but is the grass on the green a different type than the grass on or the fairway, or is it the same type of grass that is just cut differently and with a different base etc??

I quite often play on my own too. The lads I normally play with have kids (unlike me) so golf with them has to be planned in advance, sometimes I fancy a round, so will just head off on my own. Went to France in the summer with the wife and played a round there on my own too, althoiugh she...

Think I will. No doubt a pro would be able to see the problem and hopefully suggest the best way to fix it fairly quickly

Evening all, I seem to have a problem with my grip and i dont know how to solve it. Basically I seem to be hitting the ball with my irons with a very closed face, which leads to the ball going to my left. Is my grip too strong? Or too weak? Or is it my clubs - they are a beginners set with an...

ive tried to register on there, but it wont let me because i dont have a handicap at my club yet

Evening all, I was wondring of anyone can recomend a free website where i can record my scores and hopefully track my progress? many thanks

i shot 123 at william wroe during my first ever round, just over 2 years ago. im now on the verge of breaking 90 there, so stick at it!

i normally just wear M&S chinos -about £15 a pair or £10 from their outlet stores. I did get two pairs of cotton traders chinos recently for £30 - they have soem kind of coating on that doesnt make them waterproof as such but they are water repellant and do seem to keep the inside dry in a...

The course is municipal but they do have a club attached and a vets society. Normally people from both are quite happy to let the single player through. the only time anyone has been stuffy was a fourball ladies group who let me and my mate play through once. 3 of them were great but one was...

Fancied a game yesterday, so rang the club where i am an associate member but it was LAdies' day so couldnt play, so decided to play the local municipal - the same one that hippygilmore was talking about. Got there and there was a bloke on his own in front of me and then two blokes playing...

I was going to have a round there today - they have Monday madness where its £5.50 a round I think. Decided against it because of the weather - would have been a wasted trip otherwise.

nice photos. played both ballyliffin courses about a month back. what did yoyu make of them? port salon looks nice - hoping to add it to the itinery for next year!

I went to Donegal about 4 weeks ago for a golf break. It worked out a lot cheaper to get the ferry.Problem then is the length of the drive up to Cairnryan and back for a long weekend away. When we go next year we are looking at flying and hiring a car - all depends how much we can get it for...

Having just got back from Ireland playing links golf (see other thread!) i must admit i loved it. The weather was what you migh call typical links - changeable! Breezy one minute, throwing it down the next then sunny again 5 mins later. All this added to the appeal! Sure it was difficult at...
