    "For please, now driving"

    What's the difference between a golf ball and a Range Rover? Tiger Woods can drive a golf ball 300 yards without hitting a tree.

    The Masters 2026

    It was more akin to a captain's drive in!

    The Masters 2026

    We have a competition at our golf club. You pick 5 players and the points they score are their world ranking divided by their finishing position. So there is no point in picking Scottie Scheffler, as his score can be a maximum of 1 (1/1) if he wins. I'm not sure that everyone has grasped it, as...

    A Cobra Cuda putter as I wasn't getting on with my blade putter.

    Annual subscription 2026

    Other questions rather than simply if it gets wet in the winter are... Do you use artificial teeing surfaces in the winter? How much shorter is the course in the winter months? Are there temporary greens? If so, under what circumstances are they used? Do you enforce winter mats off fairways...

    Golf Things That Gladden The Heart

    Course open with no restrictions, full length and ropes removed around all greens. Basically, winter is over. The clocks go forward on Sunday for twilight golf too. What a wonderful time of the year!

    Golf Random Irritations

    When the course starts getting firm, it's not exact smooth to push the trolley.

    Golf Random Irritations

    Still being on winter wheels when the course is firming up and it's 16℃. Can't moan too much though, when it's playing off grass, full tees and greens all winter. Should be back to regular trolley wheels very soon.

    Center Parks

I went here, which is a former Centre Parcs site anyway (https://www.landal.com/parks/het-vennenbos). Go through the tunnel at...

    Killing rollups has hurt golf

    If anything, Covid confirmed perceptions about it and led to tee bookings being removed, as everything was getting booked within minutes. But it's pointless to keep this conversation going, as our club is happy with our current system anyway.

    Killing rollups has hurt golf

    And yet somehow we manage to not have huge queues without having bookings on Saturdays. 🤷‍♂️ What happened to the members that also wanted to tee off at 7am after you kept booking 40 players worth of tee times within seconds of them appearing on the website?

    Killing rollups has hurt golf

    There aren't 20 plus people waiting at 7am. I would be wasting significantly more time if I couldn't book it and had to tee off much later.

    Killing rollups has hurt golf

    I always know when I'll finish by when I just turn up. No such luck if I log onto the website 2 minutes late and can't get a tee time until 2 hours later. There shouldn't be any reasons to not have the course open from 7am at the latest in summer.
