    How Close Have You Been to an Ace?

    This close. 149 yard 6th, pitched about 6 foot shot and rolled in an inch. Gutted. But was my first ever 2 in a comp so instead of costing me a fortune it paid out the 2s pot.

    GameGolf or GameGolf Live?

    I'm a original user and find the post round edit quite an enjoyable process, it has the added advantage of making my think through my round and what needs work at the range. It really isn't difficult and takes no more than a few mins plus if your anything like me you're bound to forget to tag...

    thoughts on course vandalism ?

    We get kids roaming across the course especially during the summer holidays and occasionally a green/bunker will take a punishing. There no excuse for this and there has been much debate about the best way to limit there access to the course. I have to admit there was one occasion I couldn't...

    Monthly poll: how many different courses have you played in 2015?

    Best course this year was Dunstanbrough Castle in Embleton. Beautiful place to play, great greens and fairways plus a castle. What more could you ask for.

    Rain please...

    Our place in South Yorkshire is a bit brown in places, the fairways are like a concrete car park bouncy bouncy. But the greens are holding up well if a little firmer than I'd like.

    Your shot of the year so far

    2 leap to mind. First was on our 173 yard par 3 6th. Hit a glorious 5 iron (if I do say so myself) which rolled and rolled closer and closer. Could it be an ace..............no it ended about an inch short of dropping. It would have been my first ace as well, never mind saved me a few quid...

    So close and yet so far away.

    I was playing on Sunday, 9 hole stapleford. Hacking my way round with a mild hangover blobs all over the place until I came to the 173yard Par 3 6th. When this happened One more roll and it'd have been my first ace. Gutted to say the least. Never mind will have another go tonight.

    The journey from 28 to 18, 18 to 12, 12 to 9 and 9 to 5

    Thanks for taking the time to write this post it makes me feel a whole lot better about my situation. I contracted the virus 8 months ago and am now a fully paid up owner of a 28 handicap. I've been beating myself up over last couple of weeks because I am just so inconsistent. I feel like I'm...

    Poll: what is the most valuable club in your bag?

    7 Iron for me, it's my go to club for a large range of shots. Bump n Run, chipping from the fridge, hacking out of the thick stuff oh and of course hitting it full and landing gimme range from the pin everytime (honest!!)

    Worst youve ever seen or heard of on one hole in a medal?

    I played my first medal on Sat and carded an 11 on an easy 400ish yard par 4. Got to admit this thread is making me feel much better about it.
