    New Bargains Thread

    Loads of people must do, because I find more pro V1's than any other ball. I found one in the rough on the 1st last week, shiny and new, had obviously only been used for 1 tee shot. At over £4 a ball it's no wonder people want to spend more than 3 minutes looking for their ball. I'll be using...

    For a ‘standard’ full shot. How fast does a typical tour pro swing?

    interesting paradox here... if tempo is intrinsic and linked to an individual's natural personality, can we work on tempo? Or do we need to learn how to play to our tempo?

    Amazing shot at a pivotal moment. He later admitted he pushed it 😂

    It’s great to know that you have a sense of irony, if not a sense of humour. 😬

    Greenkeepers Q and A

    My course is closed for 3 days this week for spring maintenance. This is in addition to the main maintenance which takes place in august. I don’t remember the course being closed for a chunk like this in the past. It doesn’t impact me, I’ll be at work all week, maybe that’s why I haven’t...

    Annual subscription 2026

    I thought it was an interesting perspective Tim d because it came across as pragmatic and accepting of the course and the weather, rather than many members who have unrealistic expectations. If you were a member at a links course you would probably have much higher expectations, but you’re not...

    Interesting sense of perspective here. You describe it as quite a dry course but then it has 3 temp greens (I’m assuming due to water logging).

    When does the topic of custom fit lockers come up?

    I got the impression Darren Clarke was a terrible captain and just didn’t take it as seriously compared with other recent captains.

    A few comments on here about Luke Donald having nothing to prove, and risking his legacy. Golf is an individual sport and those are fair considerations. But maybe Luke is taking one for the team here and making a totally selfless decision because the players and selectors want him to do it and...

    Old Man Yardages

    Almost as strange as basing your iron yardages on total distance instead of carry 😂😉

    Looks like it. So the molinaris will be overlooked

    Golf Random Irritations

    I think it really depends on the course. Links courses can play a lot easier in winter on a calm day. Rough is cut short, tees forward, ball still rolls on the fairways, easier to stick an approach into a soft target green. Obviously the weather can be brutal, and it's winter so the course is...
