    Electric Trolley

    I bought a 2nd hand powakaddy and unbranded battery about 5 years ago. Probably the best bit of kit I've bougt over the years. Can pack everything in without worrying about weight. It gave up the ghost after a couple of years so i bought a brand new basic model Powakaddy but opted not to fork...

    Cleaning White Golf Shoes

    I have this issue with my DNA's. Assuming yours are leather, once they crack, you're going to struggle to get them back to looking like they were. You need to be using neautral shoe polish on them from day one to soften the leather and stop them from cracking and drying out. But I would suggest...

    Does anyone carry an "opposite handed" club?

    Two methods I use, no need for left handed club https://youtu.be/aoyqTClUEJ8 https://youtu.be/10jORLiU7Ak Skip to 3.10 on this. Obviously you don't have to be up a tree, but up against it, this is quite handy

    halfway hut/club champs

    Ours is between the 7th and 8th. Our 1st and 8th are together. The 8th is a drivable par 4 and the group in front have to wave you up when they are all on the green. Usually, the members will place an order and then hit tee shots. Once all have hit, they grab the stuff as they head up the hole...

    Wedge spin and balls

    As others have said, there are many, many factors that can affect this. The most notable are going to be the quality/consistency of your strike, the balls you use and the state of the greens you're playing into. But don't forget things like, dirty club face, unclean grooves, wet ball, sloping...

    The Golf Club 2

    Looked at some vids yesterday with a bit of interest. The grapics and animations quickly put me off. Looks like an Xbox 360 or playstation 3 game.

    Golf Depot

    Yep, would echo this whole heartedly. Always does you a deal, even if you don't ask. Always very welcoming. Good quality stock, staff are very friendly and they have a launch monitor/swing room in back.

    Golf Depot

    I live local and locally, their rep is terrible. They do have new staff there but ownership is the same. Every time someone mentions the place in golfing circles, someone's always got a bad experience storey to tell regarding them. They do have some decent stock in and prices are OK. I'd never...

    Wanted. Swingyde and sklz grip trainer

    Anyone have a swingyde or grip trainer they're not using? Can pick them up on ebay for a few quid but delivery from china is a month (if they even make it) Not looking to spend a fortune. A 5er-ish for each if anyone wants to part with. Cheers, T

    Foot on the brake

    Thats a good news storey. Be great if it was the norm!

    Foot on the brake

    Not necessarily. Common practice is to claim off the person who went into the back of you, regardless of who was at fault. It would take an outstanding legal rep to argue that one. No insurance company is going to accept more blame than they absolutely have to. Its the easiest argument to make...

    Feeling down

    No, the point of the storey is... challenge what you see, when you see it. Dont allow a cheat to cheat and see if you win the hole because that wont be the last time they cheat.

    Freddie Mercury

    How strange, I have my headphones in listening to spotify and currently have queens greatest hits on when I spotted this thread. I remember watching a vhs with my old man as a kid, Queen live at Wembley. Was hooked from the first watch.

    How good is your bunker play??

    I'd say pretty good. Maybe better than average for my handicap. Although, they recently put more sand in our bunkers and no matter how your ball ends up in them, be it a high wedge or a low 3 wood, every lie ends up as a fried egg with no more than half the ball above ground. Anyone else...
