    Favourite golf vlogger?

    Interesting thread for me as a newbie - led me to some interesting looking stuff that I’d not come across before. For me, I really like the approach of GolfSidekick - course management and common sense and laid back. I’ve been erring more toward channels that are mainly teaching but of...

    Mixing brands/types of wedges?

    I look forward to the point where I hit consistently enough to be able to think sensibly about gapping distance :-) I think for the foreseeable I'll keep this 60 as my sand wedge

    Mixing brands/types of wedges?

    Whilst I have no pressing plans to shop, as I sit here on a gloomy Friday I got to wondering so thought I'd see what folk have to say on this: I bought my first wedge (as a newbie the 49* PW from my Nike irons was the shortest club I have) earlier this week, I went for a TaylorMade Hi Toe...

    Beginner grip Q

    That looks interesting - do you use it like that as a reminder of hand position or attach it to a club and actually swing it?

    Recommend a good beginner intro to putting technique?

    What video resource would you point a beginner at to get a good grounding in putting technique? I went to the putting green for the first time today and was basically just busking it (although it was still fun)

    Beginner grip Q

    Snuck to the range today and hit a bucket of balls - spent the majority of the time thinking about grip and noticing what if felt the club was doing in my hand if things went awry. What I'm learning (or think I'm learning/realising) is that an effective grip throughout the swing feels very...

    Beginner grip Q

    Asked the pro at the group lesson. It seems I was holding it a bit too high - getting it more down in my fingers now seems to help

    Beginner grip Q

    As a total beginner this is something I have yet to master and which most probably take for granted by now so please bear with me :-) I've done a few sessions at the range to try and work the basics and each time I come away with a blister on my left (lead) hand middle finger - at the top of...

    Is this fixable? (Stand bag leg) Return to seller?

    The hinge hinges fine - it just seems like the end of the leg where it fits in split in transit. It's a shame as otherwise the whole bag is in great nick! I've bought another bag that's on the way so not sure what to do with this one now - if anyone can make use of it and has anything to offer...

    Is this fixable? (Stand bag leg) Return to seller?

    Cheers. I sent him the above pics via eBay as I posted here - he's replied saying not to bother returning and he'll refund so fingers crossed may end simply. The box is fine outwardly
