I actually wish that I wasn't going to North Wales on the 28th (may play Prestatyn Links while I'm there) and that I saved my last lieu day so I could spend the day in Yorkshire instead.

I play Golf with some super low handicappers +2 being the lowest and 7 being the highest apart from me!! I have to say some of these guys really get the ball out there and they were hitting 280 on a fine day in the summer so if the chap who is claiming to be able to hit this huge distance actually does pull it off then fair play to him and I would like to see a video of him doing it however I have serious doubts that it can be possible especially in the winter where the balls don't fly through the air anywhere near as much.

I've not been on the forum for a couple of days this week. I read the G20 review and then this broke out, but can someone answer me this:
Did Steve actually come on to say "Look at the size of this monster, it's like a roll of carpet hanging out of my trousers!"
or did he just mention how far he hit his driver and all the rest of it kicked off because of the cries of "liar"?

as far as i'm aware thats what always happens on here.someone will mention how far they hit a drive,not to show off but just saying it because it may of happened and they are saying how well they are hitting a new driver etc and then usually certain folks will pounce on the mentioned numbers and refute them.same **** different day.

They are a bit off Wull.
When he was posting he hit the keys the wrong way round. It's actually 352yds not 325 lmfao.

Region read the 1st post then read #178.. & wonder why it was questioned .. as i said before it doesnt bother me how far anyone else drives it , (as for 325 yards i dont see why is should lay up to keep others happy:whoo
seriously tho it wast the arrogance of it not the content that bugged me

This is what annoys me,when you come on and stated how far you could hit a driver you were basicly called a lair,this from people who have never seen you play and dont know you,some are far to quick to jump on the bandwagon and try and make a fool of people.
Now I know Steve came on and set peoples back up, but at least he was willing to play with anyone and back up his claims what more could he do?
I think he has set himself up for a fall and dont think he can do what he claims,but untill he plays with some on here and we see how he does I will reserve judgment.

So why bother, As you say it just gets peoples backs up, Ok if he can hit it that far good for him, just learn to chip and putt without bragging about your so called length, Play a overall game....

Why did'nt he come on the forum then look for three others to make up a four ball.
Followed by a 380yd smash off the first tee.
That would have made a good post from the other three.

I tried the G20 today and couldn't believe the length of it either mind, at 46" they really are taking the p**s!
Seriously the G20 launches it ridiculously high and I doubt a 10.5 regular would stand up to the swing speed to reach 300+,the shaft to me felt quite soft.

i have found myself wandering the bays at the Braid Hills (see steve's G20 review page) range, of a lunchtime, in desperate search of a G20 swinging golfer who can pop one over the fence at will
i have found three G20 users so far, none of whom can get anywhere near the 200 markers without a massacre of the local worm population
*sigh*
guess my purple drinking voucher is safe for now........

When you only drive the ball 250 yards you think everyones a liar,most of the long timers on this forum are pretty quick to denounce anyones capability regarding driving,cos it makes them look weak,just softies really..
