    Ok thanks. Still hadn’t found time to call them. How about East Berks? Or another decent Thames Valley club…

    Free Game at Scraptoft on Thur 19th June 2025

    Would love to as it’s closing in the future due to redevelopment, but it’s midweek and far from home. Hope you find some good company to fill the spots.

    NC 500 and golf

    Interesting. It’s been going up in price in recent times, though still good value through membership.

    Course recommendations in Stoke

    Trentham is really good but now massively overpriced after recent hikes. Recommend finding a member or playing in an open.

    Playing Scotland's Top 100

    They can be, but the main ones encourage new members and people posting games. Can send details of you like. As for on here, you should offer a game at yours, so people know what’s in return. For the best courses it’s only fair, let’s be honest. I do agree there are less times for visitors, but...

    Playing Scotland's Top 100

    First of all, when requesting to play good courses, you should offer a decent reciprocal in return. Secondly, many of the above very best courses you can do in the off season for a LOT less.

    Refunds Open Competitions

    Was gonna say this as I recognise the blurb. It is rather odd however as they allowed me to receive a refund when I couldn’t make it to play their open in recent times. That was under a previous club secretary, the longstanding Les Durno however. Maybe their new GM is of the modernist penny...

    Professional Golf

    The Masters 2025

    That was terrible. How on earth did he hit such a careless shot? It’s tricky but no more. You play it to gently roll down the slope, not pump it like you’re going some. And the comeback pitch was poor too. After all that hard work, this is a disaster. Could well cost him…if he’s still there...

    North Wales Golf

    Do Painswick and Cleeve, they’re both brilliant and a lot of fun. They’re also quite different in many ways. Both are close to Gloucester and you’ll regret it if you don’t.

    North East golfing group

    Hi everyone. Just want to say hello. I’m based in the North West but can hopefully get around a bit more to Yorkshire, Cumbria and the North East this year, so potentially join you. If anyone is down this way, likewise happy to have a game and sign you on. Cheers The Lion

    Would you pay £350 to play Royal Lytham?

    Porthcawl I bet. Or maybe B&B. Hope not though.
