What on earth was going on with Scheffeler’s ball in 15th bunker? First camera showed it plugged. 2nd showed it nowhere near the pitch mark. Ok so deceptive camera angles. Then Butch says and I quote “when we saw the shot the camera went off of it after it plugged then went away and didn’t show...

I assume the cattle never moved in?

Fabulous day again. Thanks to Rich, Vicky and anyone that assists in planning the day. Hankley spectacular. A very moving speech from Derek that brought a tear to my eye. Afterwards I tried to thank him for his service and congratulate him on his speech but I choked up and hardly got my words...

Don’t get one if… You care that many will think you a knob and feel the need to express said view every time Stewart’s are mentioned in the forum. You plan to renovate your bathroom and kitchen and have absolutely nowhere else to store your trolley. I have one. I like it.

What’s in the circles?

Learned a lot from Rob Cheney (wrist hinge) , Malaska (love L to L drill) and Monty Scheinblum’s appearances on Be Better Golf. Not so much from the big names although I really enjoy Danny Maude’s channel.

Are you just guarding against this possibility SilH with your 4 foot ish policy or do other balls distract you when you’re close in too? I often don’t bother marking when in that range if I’m nowhere near another’s line. I hadn’t considered some may find it distracting. My mates obviously don’t...

If there’s any chance you might consider re joining in the future there might be another advantage to Social Membership. A few left ours and came back. Social Membership meant no Joining Fee and, I think they were fast tracked through the waiting list, maybe unofficially. Having said that I’d...

I see this when I open App but I can still record swings and store locally for free.

Next time you visit your playing partners will be long-horned cattle and Exmoor ponies.

Technique still works for me

I play with some, on beautiful sunny days, who do manage to hit some glorious shots, spending four hours away from whatever it is that causes them stress, but fuming that they got nowhere near their holy grail of ‘36 points’ that day. Don’t get it, never will. I’ll give up the game when my...

This for me. Love the fresh air, nature, banter, beer etc but don’t need a golf course to enjoy those pleasures. But the occasional well struck soaring golf shot, softly landing pin adjacent is my serotonin booster of choice.

Not seen anyone do the fingers but a few at my place do the feet bit. And just like most aspects of slow play, the ones that slow down play are the ones that don’t use common sense by getting it done (where possible) before their turn to play.

Seems straightforward enough. If their claim is true then all is well.
