    Cheats. Or not?

    Take lessons or not?

    Mobile Phone debate vote

    I always carry my phone on the course with me, on silent of course,and the reason is simple. It's not "self importance" and its not to be contacted be family or work, but for safety. I was with an unfortunate gentleman who was struck on the head with a ball and none of the 3 ball or the groups...

    Links or Parkland?

    Links is the only way to play golf in its purest form, but for a bit of fun North Shore GC in skegness is a bit of both parkland and links. Makes for an interstig knock.
