In a competition a group started on the 1st, and after playing the 8th, presumably due to speed of play and seeing the gap between the groups in front of them, decided to cut across from the 8th hole to the 11th and then after completing the 18th, played the 10th and then the 9th. The layout of...

It seems to me that with the slope rating calculation my handicap is adjusted to reflect a course difficulty before I start my round, but with CSS / SSS my handicap remained the same no matter where I played and the course difficulty was only reflected in my handicap after the round. I know I...

Wouldn’t get any posts, those that like / accept it get on with it. Most threads generally follow on from golfers moaning about everything, the greens, the rough, the bunkers, the fairways, the tees, the committee, the competitions, the rules and of course the handicap system. Golfers are the...

But it shouldn’t be. The thread title is pretty specific but like a lot of threads, “creep” sets in and after a couple of pages it’s off topic and all sorts of vaguely related stuff gets thrown in. Makes it a chore for those who want to discuss the title. You could of course set up a new thread...

Interesting that a couple of responses include clearing and widening existing ditches. As in a lot of things these days, maintenance is seen as a chore, unsexy, a dirty word and building new is regarded as ‘proper investment’. Reality is that the infrastructure may well be there but not looked...

All very interesting but absolutely nothing to do with ‘WHS not working’. (For what it’s worth some open events have ‘live leaderboard scoring’ but only up to say, the 15th hole, Mizuno Golf Pairs).

I don’t think you’d fit some of todays adults in a car of yesteryear either 😄

Every cloud has a silver lining, with golf coverage not starting until later I can now watch the Moto3, Moto2 and MotoGP.

I dislike the term “hate” and have not used it, I merely said I was becoming tired of the aloofness of the Augusta organisers. By all means they can use the word “patrons” if they think it is fitting, but they shouldn’t have the power to stop, or restrict, or penalise people, including...

Nicely put, I read elsewhere that even some of the Pro’s are nervous around the place, feeling like they are walking on eggshells just waiting for someone to point out an indiscretion. Reminds of when I went to Swinley Forest and Muirfield.

No, but feel free to ask them if they can do that, it would be a step in the right direction.

Finally tiring of the Masters. The course and setting is unique, spectacular and challenging, but the way it is run and the “traditions” are tedious, “patrons” and “fore please” for example. The way the rest of the golfing establishment and broadcasters have to bend to their requirements, at the...

Trying to watch Featured Groups on the red button but constantly getting “unavailable”,”there is a technical issue”!! Can get it via the App on the iPad but not the same as the big screen.☹️

I think he was a tad fortunate at the 12th and 13th though….
