Your thinking he’s playing polo on it

That would be ridiculous, he is carrying his clubs and riding at the same time, obviously . What were you thinking of

Polo? You must live in the posh part of Liverpool if that was your first thought

Well it is quite nice here except the smell of the ponies obviously.

No, tell me more

Does it come with hedgehog wheels? It could make a terrible mess around the fringes if not .

The nobbles on the tyres are chunky enough to pass as hedgehogs

I am glad you enjoyed it mate.

We have a new greenkeeper this year, and this will be his first winter, but so far he is making very good progress. So hopefully next season the fruits of all his hard work pay off. In 2019 to help reduce the thatch over 200 tonnes of top dressing have been added, the last of which only a few weeks back.

Some of the stags are starting to wilt a bit now lol, played early Saturday and there were a few tired boys who looked like they had been busy all night.

One issue we have is badgers have got in to the park ( probably deliberately brought in) and there are people out at night ensuring nothing "happens to them".
They dig just off the fairways at night to get the bugs they eat, but leave an horrendous mess.

They had hoped may be with the help of the estate they could catch them and relocate to other areas of the park away from the course but the tree huggers stopped this, so for now its an ongoing problem.

If you ever want to revisit just shout.

If you have horse flies the badger is your mate. If you want him to stop scratching up the earth, let the grass grow, he doesn’t like the wet grass touching his low slung tummy.
Lessons learnt from Ellesborough Golf Club 👍

Aah right, I know he shot loads under par recently but I didn't realise it was in a comp. My mate reckons he's improved loads since I threatened to knock him out on the 13th last year

That bloke sounds like a proper bandit 😂.

A bit intimidating for everyone else if someone can turn in rounds like that off +1.

off the yellas and a few forward tees mind but still have to hole the putts

Or the course is set up to punish the average golfer and not challenge the good.
I remember we had a +1 at my previous club. He was looking to drive short par 4s and at least birdie the par 5’s.
Best way is to set the traps up at their yardages as well and narrow down the fairways. Which is what happened. The scores were good but he was in the mix with the handicappers (cat 1s) and came 2nd in the lowest gross.

Bought this beauty from Clubhouse Golf for £59.99 as they price matched 👍

Sealskinz socks. I didn't want to be the only kid in school who didn't have them.

Got to say lads, they feel weird. Like sort of like what I imagine latex would feel like. And you guys love them?

I'll probably give the forum meets a skip.

Dunlop "Arnold Palmer" putter.

Not sure why, I just thought I was a bit short of Dunlop putters. That's it for putters now though, unless I see a real beauty.

They do feel weird and I only wear them when it is soaking, not for regular use. However, when you play on a soaking course and your feet are still dry, then you see the worth of them.

Another block of lessons.

2 x CK mid layers & a gilet.

Was that from County Golf? I got one of those CK midlayers for 20 quid. Very thin but nice material. They've been emailing me every day since with more tempting offers. Must resist..

Yeah, CK stuff washes well and is decent quality.
