    Stolen Clubs

    Keep any receipts for new equipment, list any expensive items like drivers on your policy. There's been a few car boot raids in local clubs and pubs in my area with mainly laptops being taken so I keep my clubs in the garage as soon as I get home - I used to leave them in my boot as you never...

    Glen Golf Club, North Berwick

    I have also played the Glen - interesting first hole playing up a cliff but the views once you scrabble up there are worth it!

    If You Were Good Enough

    The Open for definite! Whenever I've played an Open course I've always imagined as I walk up the 18th what it must be like to be a contender for the jug!

    Irritating Tiger Gillette Ad

    Totally agree that the Halifax ad's are awful. I would be ashamed to bank with them. Don't think Howard's pay of 100k is enough though to be made a laughing stock for rest of your life. I bet he gets people in the street laughing and pointing and doing his silly dance all the time. His poor...

    WHATS YOUR FAVOURITE GOLFING AID???

    I've got this lead sock thing you put on any iron and it sorts out a slice. Only thing is as soon as I take it off I go back to dodgy old swing yet it seemed so obvious what I was doing wrong when I was using it. Maybe I should stick weights all my clubs - is that legal??

    Irritating Tiger Gillette Ad

    Saw the Henry/ Federra/ Woods last night. Does anyone else get irritated by the amount of random sponsorship deals the sports stars get these day. Rather than lining pockets of the filthy money grabbing rich why don't the manufacturers give the marketing budgets back to the people by halving the...

    Do you have to be fit to play golf?

    Monty clearly dodges the gym and salads and he's earn a good wage for the past 15 years or so.

    GOLF IS MEANT TO BE FUN!!

    It's just nice to get out there and away from the hassles of work, DIY that needs doing around the house, the screaming demands of a toddler.... when you work full time the few hours to escape are so precious without idiots hurling their wedge into the rough.

    Your Subject on Golfing Mastermind?

    "How the hell did that not go in?" - hit ball directly at cup, spins round, bounces out.

    Do Yanks hit it Further than Brits ?

    I have played a few times in the US and their fairways are as wide as they are long so accuracy doen't really come into it off the tee. Anyone can smack the ball a mile if it doesn't really matter where it lands. I was hitting the ball at right angles and was still on the fairway!! They then...

    What is your Pre-Shot routine!

    Had a really bad aiming patch so went for lessons and he told me to point club at target, put club behind ball then shuffle feet round, it kind of works most of the time.

    GM Staff v GM Forum - The Video (Birdieman reveals himself)

    madandra - brilliant photo! I love the fact that birdieman is still an enigma but looks like it was a great golf day, esp the analysis of the should-have-been shots over the pints in clubhouse.
