Are Yanks Welcome___at least coastal ones?

[Ye Olde Boomer]

Lightweights

With the ridiculously jacked lofts of today's irons compared to when I took up golf in the early 1960s, I almost can carry a 7-ron that far...and I'm about to turn 73.

So, Boomer, which is your course?

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Welcome along. I don't think you'll be short of a game of two if you decide to cross the pond

What is that hideous golf club in your avatar pic? Fugly as.

 

[USER1999]

Oh, and yes, welcome.

Possibly a Wedgewood?

It's a Lovett 63º sand iron...automatic from fluffy greenside bunkers--totally useless from grass.

And at my level, "automatic" means putting the next stroke, not necessarily making the sand save!

Effective, but ugly then. What ever works, does the job. Ever considered a chipper in the bag?

Just joking. Have fun here, most take it way too seriously.

But they are always right, and never wrong

Welcome aboard.
Who could possibly say no to a friendly yank.

Of course, welcome. The majority of posters will be based around the British Isles as long as that doesn't bother you.
We like a good moan over here, and will poke fun at the next town/city, county, country etc., so the US of A will inevitably come in for some stick- so best if you have a thick skin.
Oh and maybe take a break when the Ryder cup is on ??

Coming from Boston and being a Pats fan, deffo welcome on here. However, politics, football and talking about NFL “ Cheatriots” does bring out the best and worst in us. Happy new year me man And eyup me man.

Well chaps, Ye Olde Boomer, sounds like a thoroughly decent sort (for a Johnny foreigner ??)
He can pass through Sherwood Forest without paying my toll. However I would welcome him to a duel on the greens of Nottingham
Pass me another tankard of sweet sherry Maid Marion.
Tally Ho !!
"Happy New Year" to one and all.

Bud and Miller Lite (that's how they spell it) taste like dishwater. We drink beer cold so that we don't have to taste it. Good beer tastes fine at room temperature. I like Guinness which is unfortunately Irish but they sell it in London pubs. They sell it in American bars, too. Sometimes on top of Bass Ale in a two-tone configuration. I have a Welsh Terrior of roughly the same color (colour?). Welsh terrorist, really.

I obviously know London is a great city. Town used in that contest is an American thing. When I lived in Boston, which is tiny compared to London but definitely a world city nonetheless, we'd say "I'll be out of town for a couple of days." Or , "That's one of the best restaurants in town."

Politics can be a problem. I don't know much about your man Boris, but Trump is a (expletive deleted) of the lowest order. If you like him, you can have him.
Also, your NHS is the standard of the civilized world. We'll be dead last to socialized medicine just as we were last to abolish slavery--you sent all of your most socially regressive people here, apparently. If you'd like some of your great empire back, you're more than welcome to all of our Republican (Tory) voting states.

Wow! That's quite a golf discussion!

Likes beer and dogs, hates tories, welcome on board chief.

Ive been to Boston on hols a few times, stayed near Plymouth for a week for our Honeymoon, stayed in Salem for a week on another trip, and graced the bleachers of Fenway to watch my footy team (Liverpool) play a pre-season game there, great and historic stadium.

Historic, yes. Was built around the time the poor Titanic went down.
Comfortable, no. American asses were narrower in 1912.
