We have a guy at our place that if not playing well over the opening holes, comes out with every ailment going, however he then goes very quiet once his game starts improving. The same chap has started a habit of walking off after 9 if his game does not pick up (which he has done on a number of...

Re: Forgive me .......... I have sinned! Hi Oddsocks, as someone you helped keep £300 in my wallet after our chat on whether to change the big dog or not a few weeks back, I feel obliged to give you full support and say o be strong and keep with what works. As my clubs were being regripped...

Hi, two things helped me with my putter. The first was reading Bob Rotella's "Putting out of your Mind" which I have found to be a great help and secondly (and somewhat ironically given his putting reputation) was the Sergio Garcia Putter Ball. This basically a sphere slightly larger than a...

Will there not always be ways those clever marketing sorts convince us to part with our cash and buy new kit? Am I too cynical?

Thanks, how much does it change feel etc?

Good afternoon all, Having had my irons 5 years and had the same grips on them all that time, I wondered if it was time to get them regripped. I have probably played 30 to 40 times a year on average over this time and have not noticed an issue with them, but having read in a recent issue of GM...

Just think what his pre putt routine will be like when he is not allowed to use the long putter in a couple of years

I've played it once and it was OK. Probably not the best of answers, but it depends what else is close to where you live and what fees they are charging

Our place has gone up about £125, but like you we have are investing a lot of money in new green keeping equipment and the course as a whole and besides I think it is the first rise in a couple of years However if such a rise should become more regular, I would have to think about my options...

Pine Ridge, near Camberley heath is worth looking at, although I suspect this and the two you are looking at will get very busy at a weekend and you could end up with a 5 hour round if you are unlucky

I have 4 wedges in my bag too, pw, 50, 54 and 60 degree and it seems to give me lot's of flexibility 100 yards in

Having been wavering on whether to change my Driver, however a discussion with Oddsocks last week following his Big Dog post has convinced me to stick with my R9 Supertri - Therefore no changes to the bag planned which will be a record 3rd year in a row. I can't post a picture as at work, but...

I quite like the "me and My Golf" posts on Youtube. Mark Crossfiled is also pretty good although neither is a substitute for a one to one lesson with a good pro I find the best thing is to work on one thing at a time, otherwise there will be far too much going on in your head when you swing the...

To be honest I should stick with the R9 as it goes over 260/270 yards in the summer and I am hitting it straighter now than any other driver I have had. I tend to hit the ball quite high, so am thinking that time and money may be better spent having a couple of lessons to build on some changes I...

I suspect that has been true in my case, that's the power of advertising I suppose (and no will power)
