Golf Random Irritations

[sunshine]

Ordered a new hybrid, but TM saying they've run out of grips, so estimated delivery is 2021!!!

Ours bought a job lot at the start of the season that were too big to fit in the holder of most peoples trolleys. After many grumblings they agreed to go back to the old size ones.

On another occasion they bought cards that were glossy and so pencils would not work on them. They left an imprint but no mark. Another lot for the recycle bin.

Little details

Sorry .....but LMAO !!!! People in charge eh?

I have a brand new TM grip you can have, I won't use it.
Just order your hybrid ungripped.

Thank you! This is the grip I was after, to match my fairway wood.

I've ordered the new hybrid with a multi compound grip, to match my irons (and old hybrid). But this is a better result! I'll send you a PM.

Unsurprisingly, both Fragger (+3 shots) and CVG (+5) want to play off the new WHS numbers tomorrow......

Mind you, I get 2 extra so I might take them up on it....

Tuned in to watch some of the LPGA live on YouTube courtesy of Sky..
See about 3 shots, feed goes down and coverage switches to the E tour - computer golf....
I'm all for Sky trying to up the Ladies coverage but let's see some of it.

Apparently they've started a new feed....too late for some who will have moved on.

Golf trousers with a back pocket that is too shallow so your scorecard falls out when you're walking.

No problem if this happens with normal trousers, but surely this should be part of the design spec for golf trousers!

Pockets are deep enough on mine, but only the left hand one has a button. Why not button both so that you have a choice which one to use, rather than struggle buttoning one on the awkward side.

Realising how many golfers are happy when their handicaps increase

I am the opposite. Royally annoyed. I play off 10.8 off the back tees. Not great, and not where I want to be (or was), but to find I now play off 12 off the same tees, garbage. What is the flipping point. I have been trying to get back to 10, but that is now a world away.

People not reading instructions.

And by "people" I mean our club members.

And by "instructions" I mean the covering email I send out with the start sheet.

Perhaps in the world of Twitter and the most fringe parts of social sciences where micro aggressions and pseudo-offence is top priority, but in the real world I'd argue that the absolute vast majority of people appreciate these things, men as women.

Going to the range and having a total swing loss. Swaying all over the place, and tempo rubbish. Waste of time and confidence low for tomorrow's comp

It's his relatives that live on our 7th hole.

the numpty who decided to take i big divot right out of the middle of the new winter greens on about 3 holes, all clearly marked GUR, must have been deliberate

‘Numpty’ is being very polite.

WITB of the Tour Pro....why?
Waste of time...just one of the clubs would have a chance of being in mine.
Why the rush, as soon as someone has a good round or tournament, to tell us he or she is using X100s in his irons and a weird XS stiff driver shaft in a wacky colour...?
It's about as irrelevant as you can get unless you're a real equipment geek.
If it's for advertising then, if you're falling for it, you're a fool.

I just don't get it...

Yet many don't think the game is already bifurcated. The fact that they use equipment only a very few non pro's could use pretty much proves the point really.
