    Exmoor course recommendations please

    So I'm staying in Porlock for a week with my brother and fancy taking him for a round somewhere. Ideally not too far and possibly with a driving range? Any suggestions most welcome ?

    Ball Advice for high handicapper

    Respectfully disagree, but then I think it's one of those subjects- 5 golfers in the room, 6 opinions. Each to thier own, whatever enables you to enjoy the game in the way you want is all good with me.

    Ball Advice for high handicapper

    People will tell you that you won't be good enough to use anything other than cheap/found balls. That you won't notice the difference... Personally, as someone who shoots in the low to mid 90's... I disagree. I decided when I started playing again to stick to one ball (mostly). That ball is a...

    I played today and..(Rolling) -originally created by JohnnyDee

    Played rubbish with some flashes of good stuff. Great round though, lovely day and first out. Got paired up with a sound guy who was pretty much same level as me so all good (i usually play solo). I lipped out 9...yes, 9 times! Neither of us could believe it by the end. Still battled round for a...

    Another new shoe thread! Advice wanted

    Update! Success!! ? It seems that the magic solution was indeed to take the insoles out. With the boost cushioning they're still plenty comfortable and it allows my foot to just sit that much lower in the heel cup, this combined with 4 days in shoes stretchers and they're amazing. It wasn't...

    Another new shoe thread! Advice wanted

    Yeh, I don't hold out too much hope to be honest... But worth a try. Tee times booked and new shoes wouldn't get here in time anyway

    Unpopular golfing opinions

    Pretty much every american tour player (bar maybe Ricky Fowler) is as dull as dishwater.

    Unpopular golfing opinions

    Mines in 2 parts 1. People should stop being so obsessed with 'slow play', they've paid thier money same as anyone and are entitled to enjoy it. Calm down.. Stop rushing :) 2. If you're not aware/polite enough to let people through promptly when you're playing slower than they are... You...

    Another new shoe thread! Advice wanted

    I've got shoe stretchers on my 360's and am playing on Monday, so will give them one last go. Seems the concensus is they're too small, I'd go with that. They definitely don't feel too big and I got my normal size, whereas I maybe should have sized up. If it doesn't work... I'll be getting...

    Another new shoe thread! Advice wanted

    My 360xts are a 9.5 (my usual size). As I've said, length/width wise they don't feel too bad, toes are about where they should be i think. I genuinely think it's a combination of the leather lined interior and low achilles tab, that's where I'm getting the blisters. Which is why when I took out...

    Need new golf shoes

    Just out of interest, what do you wear in the winter? Sketchers are waterproof, no?

    Another new shoe thread! Advice wanted

    Interesting, I could try shoe shapers, but I kind of think it's that the heel on the 360s is too low for me, rather than a poor fit length wise. I had some success by taking the insole out completely, thus dropping the height of my foot in the shoe. This, whilst not ideal and combined with...
