Friday morning poll time: dream destinations + 2010 handicap progress

[JezzE]

Morning all,
On this decidedly chilly morning, the first poll takes a look at where your golfing mind might be wandering to if money were no object; the second asks how successful or otherwise forumers' golfing years have been.
Many thanks for all you help

 

[grumpyjock]

had to go for the USA and only managed to get down 1.
Ah well there is always next year.

 

[Robobum]

Went to Mauritius on my honeymoon (without clubs) and would love to go back to play. The Langer course on a little island acessed by boat looks like paradise.

Fustrating season with no h'cap movement. This despite feeling as though I'm a better golfer than I've ever been before.

 

[USER1999]

Up 0.1 would be a more accurate description, but that crosses the boundary to make it up 1.

Went for Mauritius as I have never been, and it looks amazing.

 

[John_Findlay]

I would head back to South Africa to play golf if I won the lottery. And I managed to get my handicap down 3 this year but only through joining a new club.

Cant beat the way the Yanks look after you, course conditions etc, Arizona is where I want to go for a week or two's golf.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Another vote for the US. Could happily play Torrey Pines or Pebble Beach for a few months at a time. Handicap only gone up 1 this year

 

[GOLFER1994]

I'm down 5!
I am very happy!

 

[Oddsocks]

USA just because there would be so much other stuff to do there, and i hear the beer in hooters is colder than most other bars......

H/c stayed the same although a few purple patch games have showed inspiration of better things to come.

 

[GB72]

I am down 4 this year so happy with that

Mauritius is heaven on earth and would go every year if I could afford it.

 

[stevek1969]

Fancy some of the sand belt courses in Oz but as Craw said Arizona sounds good.

 

[funkyfred]

Yep another one for the USA. I just love the place, and the little golf I have played there has been great.

Down 1 (25) this year but like Robobum feel my game is getting better and it should have been more. Looking at reducing it by at least another two next year, three would be fantastic.

 

[Basher]

Portugal for me, so entered other.
Down 2 this season so happy.
Hoping to lop some more off next season to get me into the high teens, would be good.

 

[viscount17]

up too many 0.1's, enough to cross the boundary. not a good season, had some fun though.

I went for NZ, but go out via Oz and back via SA

 

[clubchamp07]

Handicap this year down, .6 so not to bad.

On the holiday point, my son is in the Bahamas atm and according to him it is out of this world.
So thats my goal, to go there and play golf............

 

[Smiffy]

I'm quite chuffed that I only went out 0.2 the way I've been playing.
It helped immensely that I only played in 2 qualifiers

 

[Bunkers]

Would easily go back to New Zealand. Beautiful courses with no-one on them!!

Went from 17 to 14.6 this year...SF next year!!

 

[Adi2Dassler]

No change with the handicap, which is disappointing, really.

As for dream destinations, my simple tastes would say a tour of Irelands links courses-

Royal Portrush
Rosapenna
Lahinch
doonbeg
Ballybunion
Tralee

No daft long flight, but I'd demand good sunny days with a light helpful breeze.Heaven.

 

[Smiffy]

Sorry, forgot. My dream destination would be Cheryl Coles thong. It's too fecking cold for golf.

 

[Dodger]

As Steve says got to be the sand belt Oz tracks for me......they look simply awesome.
