    Handicap manipulation - how to address

    When WHS came in our rollups aka swindles were asked to require participants cards to be submitted. Our biggest one (60+ regularly playing) met all the criteria required and it agreed - though it lost participants and is now usually about 40-45. The Saturday one I play in didn’t quite meet all...

    Handicap manipulation - how to address

    Why not? Two of my mates won a pairs comp last year and have had their HI cut - implemented through a -1 adjustment to each of their last 20 rounds.

    Professional Golf

    Good seeing the LET playing for a decent purse of $5m - with winner getting $750k…massive for the LET and biggest outside of the LPGA majors and CME Global. Plus even last place gets $14,000. Interesting to note that the £750k first prize is more than all but two on the LET (Charley and...

    Handicap manipulation - how to address

    Cuts occur quite often at my place…including for those winning KO comps…either individually or in pairs.

    A winning goal 2mins from the end having not played their best…according to the commentators “it’s what champions do”. And so on that…Congrats Doon.👍🤞

    Golf Things That Gladden The Heart

    Course open today carry only - mostly pretty dry and playable but with some very wet areas. Thinking it's open as there is pressure (real or perceived) on the Head Greenie to open it - to provide members with the product we've paid for. But is that really a good reason to be open when damage...

    Loving the guys of 20 Minute Tims podcast mangling the name of one of Celtic's new signings Alex Oxbridge-Chambermaid :ROFLMAO:

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

    I played - and I played 18 holes. The great news we found was that the flood prevention measures we've put in place over the last three years have worked - certainly so far. And if they have worked 'so far' we see little reason they won't continue to work. Despite all the rain and the...

    Realistic targets...

    …and our poster getting pars on three of his course’s par 3 suggests a big drop in handicap is on the horizon.

    Scottish Fitba'

    Wondering when QP found out they were playing - certainly after they sold their best striker to St Johnstone couple of weeks back. If I were a Rangers supporter I wouldn’t be celebrating too hard.

    Things That Gladden The Heart

    Last night I went with future S-i-L to see Brian Cox’s new live show…Emergence…he’s doing a few ‘warm up’ shows prior to embarking on a world tour. Fascinating, brilliant and baffling in parts. Most of the time just mind blowing - and thought provoking stuff. One thing he pulled up live on...

    Realistic targets...

    I’ve actually managed to overcome the most unfortunate tendency I had - to hit shanks…well I no longer do outright shanks. My problem is more to do with poor contact - related I have no doubt.

    Club Captain Cost

    Not so much about the cost of being Club Captain…but we’ve this morning had the ‘inauguration’ of our new Club Captains…Gents, Ladies and Junior. Last year’s Captains (who happened to be husband and wife) put in a huge fundraising effort through their year and raised £32,000 (for an adult...
