If it was 'good' all the time, we'd get bored. I'm not really playing well this season and nowhere near my handicap, which is very frustrating but you just gotta keep putting in the time. If comp golf is killing you, take a few weeks off and just do bounce games.

Have you tried playing 'cack' handed ? Sometimes it works for people.

A lot of courses are in need of funds these days, maybe speaking to the secretary could bring you some kind of deal ? Worth asking. If not, then a 9 hole golf course is better than nothing.

Don't care what others are thinking. Shake off bad shots. Water and Banana is enough

Good news fella, hopefully you'll be on a roll ! I've been 0.1 the last 5 competiitons

Thanks buddy. haha nah, it wouldn't make it as interesting ;)

I wasn't a fan either. Believe it or not my irons go right down to a 1 iron, which I can use easily. I'm not a big hitter so I was only getting around 210yards from it. But I could only use it ( as with the 2 and 3 iron ) off the tee or on a fairway. But with my Taylor Made hybrid I can take it...

Welcome Andy. Rule #1, don't care what others around you think of your game ! We've all been there. Even the pro's make horrendous shots now and again.

Aww gutted !! Nothing worse ! There is a lot of it going on around my work area. We ourselves have been broken into. They broke into the clubhouse and stole a few boxes of Mars Bars.. That was it ! A month or two later, our shed got broken into, at 10am while we were out on the course. They...

Correct. And it just happened to be him that filled it in. Makes it even worse !

Well done ! Shame no one was around to see it, maybe a fellow member or greenstaff seen it though ? I had to be a witness to a young lad getting a hole-in-one about 10 years ago as no-one believed him ! But I was cutting the fairway on the opposite hole and managed to see it ( I often watch...

I have tablets for my back pain, I take 1 in the morning and 1 before finishing work if I feel I need it. My boss noticed his dog was on the exact same tablets !

Vets prices are horrendous just now, £70 for what you explained is just insane. How can they charge so much for so little time ? Is there nowhere you can go that is cheaper ?

Ah cool buddy, hopefully get a chance to chat with him Will do man. I'm having to take a break just now due to my lower back problems, unsure when I'll swing another club again. haha, you sound like every member I know ! Cheers ;) Thanks buddy

Thanks for the feedback. The most recent picture is the one of the 5th hole, that was taken 2 weeks ago. The rest are from earlier in the season ( when we had good weather ) and some from last season. They are saying today on the news that it is the wettest summer in 100 years :(
