You need to buy more putters.
The day before your game you line them all up, clear your mind, then one will tell you telepathically, "Its me you want this time."
This never fails.
Sometimes I don't putt very well, but that is always my fault.
I can never blame my putters, they are all beautiful faultless blameless things.

Guy I played with today was adamant about a ruling, he was very wrong. He ranted and raved... so I told him he to have it his way, it was only a friendly 4 ball.
I whatsapped him the page from the Rules App. when I got home. He replied , "This is America only and doesn't apply in UK."
This equally could have gone on an amusement thread. You can take a horse to water......

Off topic, but wasn't there a David Low Golf Shop near Carnoustie Golf Club (maybe through the old underpass)? I was there in 1987 and seem to recall that shop.

I want to know what rule it is now, that someone could believe only applies in America. No using a cheeseburger as a ball marker maybe?Guy I played with today was adamant about a ruling, he was very wrong. He ranted and raved... so I told him he to have it his way, it was only a friendly 4 ball.

Bang on topic, they sold branded clubs too and this is one of those.

Your putting standards are clearly higher than mine.
Why is 29 putts an irritation? Or was this a 9 hole round?

Is that shop still there? Or maybe it is owned by others now? I know that I bought a couple nice wool jumpers there.

It wasn't an irritation, it was part of the short conversation about how to choose a putter and I said on looks.
(In reality I sometimes have a terrible day even with some of my most attractive putters, the one in the photo usually produces the goods though.)

At one time they also had shops in Dundee and St Andrews, sadly the company went in to liquidation around 2002.

Help for Heroes charity golf day- West Surrey Golf Club- thursday 5th September 2024
For the 15th Golf Monthly Forum Help for Heroes Charity Golf day we are heading to the beautiful West Surrey Golf Club. The Club is five minutes from Godalming and 15 minutes from Guildford. The date is Thursday 5th September. West Surrey is something of a hidden gem, and unlike a lot of Surrey...

I did find one. But thought better not post it on that thread.

I've never been a good 'feel' person, I tend to just go by results. That's what makes it difficult - I can miss putts equally with anything.
Basically I was happy to give the new one an extended period in the bag, until my two 'helpful' mates said "I thought you putted brilliantly with the old one, don't know why you changed" and putt doubt in my mind again.

Ground is no longer frozen. 
Hasn't rained for a few days, so course not too wet.
Course closed due to thick fog.
Think we should have moved to Spain instead of Devon.

Probably going to be away when Help For Heroes is on. Shame to miss it.
Would add that West Surrey is probably the best course folk from out of the area will never have heard of!
The greens are usually excellent, great variety of holes and gradients, and the rough looks innocuous, but it tangly as can be!

More opens that are seniors only.
Surely this cannot be allowed given that age is a protected characteristic, and so cannot be discriminated against?

I hope you aren't trying to say all clubs are equal and just buying a new club won't make you a better player! You will be banned form the forum with dissent like that!I've never been a good 'feel' person, I tend to just go by results. That's what makes it difficult - I can miss putts equally with anything.

is that no different to Juniors or Womens comps?
