I bought my two Mizuno Fli Hi‘s (18 deg and 24 deg) secondhand in about 2005 which are so light and easy to hit off the tee or fairway.

Make sure you know which shots or holes go wrong in your medals. Is it your drives, or as said above putting out, or is it 150+ yards to green which go into bunkers etc . If it’s your drives, then accept the piss taking and tee off with a 6 iron for a few rounds; or lay up before the Green for...

Jack “anchored“ (the original R&A definition before they changed it) for years - he locked his right elbow into his side and then just putted with his wrists. Does that count? .

always loved Guildford, but Clandon Regis has matured very well over the past 20 yyears

Well it worked for Jack Nicklaus for many years and he won a few tournaments Note, connecting parts of your arms (such as your left inside forearm) to your body can sometimes be considered as anchoring, if ones’s hands are apart. This tends not to be the case if you hang both your hands...

I have in the past used my putter to mark my ball, I’m sure that will make a few of you seethe with anger at the indignity of it :)

It’s the 21st century. All sock debates belong in the 19th Century including the place where they pulled me up for my shirt being out of my tailored shorts on the hottest day of the year and for ankle socks, even though both were acceptable for my playing partner because she was a she.

if in a comp and someone asks to have a bet in the side then my answer is a definite no. It gives me the advantage straight away and they are pixxxed off to start with, and then I find that they don’t have anything to play for then they don’t play as well. No way am I giving them an advantage...

Jorgensen (i think) in the Physics of Golf showed that the other things pros did that amateurs didn’t which led to distance, was that their hips shifted towards the target at the start of the downswing (then followed by the in sequence other bits) creating an angular acceleration which...

Ah, …. Life . :) Good luck. Same thing happens with music/bands, kids school friends parents, neighbours and holidays etc. etc. to be honest, the most successful way is to be brutally honest from the start. Maybe even that you have other friends for golf. Or that they way he plays affects...

Water weighs a lot more than soil. I would doubt that few of the good wall fixings would stay in a ceiling hanging vertically - there is no other load path, and it will just pull out over small area. In wall fixings you almost always get a substantial amount of support from vertical shear...

Yellow white red and blue dots in my day. And we had green, blue, black and orange balls themselves used to be fun to play a red dot once in a while as it tests your physical and mental stamina with very long rallies, but also means you have to play a real winner to get the point

The 2 Kennys for being the most successful Uk Olympians of all time Cavendish for Tour de France stage wins rashford‘s admirable non-football stuff was last year ?

I accidentally came across it circa 20 years ago when I kept missing short putts and was putting one handed left arm only. Which was good for practice but not for real, and I just found it to be the easiest way to put my right hand on the grip without influencing the left hand only. Seemed to...
