    Thinking of changing tee off time !

    Interesting thread and very relevant to myself. Generally in the summer my pp & I play on a wed afternoon and then in the sat competition. On a sat morning we tee off at 7:14....3rd fourball out. We are usually finished by 10:45-11...back in the house no later than 11:30 every week. This is very...

    Diff grips for diff clubs?

    Ok folks, apologies if this has been covered before... Short short version...does anyone use a different grip depending on what club they're hitting? I changed my grip from baseball to vardon/overlap recently and after a while it's giving me the results I was after...in my irons only (things...

    Nothing more relaxing!

    Is it still chocca block trying to get out on a sat at shandon? Im less than a mile from the course but a combo of the fees (hefty for me anyways) and the fact that all I hear is its a nightmare on a sat has put me off and the last 2 years have seen ormeau & castlereagh hills get my hard earned...

    Wedges

    Thanks folks, appreciate all the replies. Just to add into the mix I called into my nearest AG on the way home and the guy told me something different again...that because I have been fitted I may as well use it and get my wedges in exactly the same spec....including having a stiff shaft-about...

    Wedges

    Going to try and keep a long story short so here goes. After taking up golf properly last year, Santa was good to me and I got a new set of irons, the Callaway X Hot’s. I was fitted (twice) and I am largely happy with the way things have worked out with them so far. The fitting churned out...

    Careless

    lol, I have no doubt I will take a 7 (or worse!) at a par 3 again...what I meant was I will never so lazily/carelessly chip out onto the fairway again with out giving a bit more consideration!

    Careless

    This has cajoled me into actually posting (been viewing this forum for about 6 weeks now). Joined a golf club 1st March. Got my hc and played my first ever comp y'day. 3rd hole, par 3, pulled my tee shot short and left behind some trees...no route to the pin. Just have to chip out and take my...
