I played today and....I got wet. Then I got dry. Then I caught a bit of sunburn on me bonce. Then I started to play better, everything started to seem a bit more pleasant, and then.....after last weeks first ever par. I managed my first ever birdie! Bosh! 160 yard 4h, 80 yard 52, then 8i bump...

Wife quizzing me about golf timescale this morning as she wanted to go and deliver Fathers day cards/gifts, only to turn the Faff meter up to 11 when I got back rather than actually getting ready.

Just got home from my first 9 holes in about 12 months, after spending the last couple of free days at the range. Shot 49 and made my first ever par. Absolutely chuffed. Managed to avoid getting soaked as well. Bonus.

Goon on yer, I found I've been doing all manner things wrong. Looking forward to getting back down the range to practice what I've learned.

I had my very first 'proper' lesson today, with use of a trackman. My god what a difference an hour makes it was a revelation! ** Going out to all the new guys like me** If you're new to golf, and want to know where to start...get a lesson. I just wish I had done it sooner!

Thanks for all the recommendations folks. Much appreciated

Just bought a used copy. Cost me 3p + P&P :D

An instruction book, I need all the help I can get.

Any suggestions guys and gals? A good informative book on golf. Thanks

Haha, I've been playing for about 3 months, he's been pro for the last 10 years, I don't think there will be many club selection convos going on. I suppose my question should've been. Any advice on things I should definitely avoid doing?

What do you mean by that?

I'm caddying for my pal tomorrow for the first time. Any advice?

thanks chaps.
