Cheers for the answers guys, some have made me chuckle.
Like in all sports the banter is part of the game and I can live with that. think as I wrote above, I tend not to give back what I get verbally, I prefer to rip one down the middle.
All said and done it's experience and you have to learn from it, I'm just going to go out and play my game my way, if it's good then brilliant, if it's bad and the ribbing starts, well we'll just see who's laughing when the last putt is sunk.
