Absolutely nothing so far.. This years golf, including a full set of clubs, bags, membership, clothes, balls etc etc were all paid for by selling a load of my diving gear... I still have just enough left to pay for the trips to Woburn and Woodhall spa then im skint. Total costs fro next year will be in the region of £1500..Not too bad really.. I don't include the drinks though as I would be drinking them whether I was playing or not...

probs around 1500 all in, 1st year so the full monty kit wise (changed irons twice but prudent buys meant they were resold for profit on ebay), subs, clothing, away days, fuel... glad I just buy stuff when I need/want it, easier to digest that way

Not too bad this year - swapped irons and woods for stiff shafted versions (bought new ones on ebay sold old on forum).
Subs - 630
comps - 25 quid
Clothes - a few 2's sorted out some clobber
Green fees and opens - 50 quid (county card is useful - thats 2 rounds at silloth and an open)
Winnings - bought putter that I sold - 80 profit.
Irony - now I fancy an extra putter:angry:

Funny I was thinking about this earlier this morning and after a few minutes decided I'd rather not:D As its my first real year I've had to shell out joining fee as well as subs and bought a fair few bits. Just doing a very quick calc must be around £3 - £3.5k Should be cheaper next time.

Don't know but it won't be pretty.

Lets see

Subs, locker fee and bar levy - 1450
Shoes - 400
R11's -500
Clothing - 400
Green fees at other courses (ex GM days) - 200
GM days - 200
Forest of Arden - 200
St Pierre - 200
Lessons - 250

Odds and sods - 150 (food, drinks, strokesavers, balls etc)

So about 3750 at a rough guess.
