Im back

[mono217]

Right...

I have not posted on golf monthly for about a year now. ! But anyway I'm back now and my golf (cock sure of my self) has never been better *touch wood*. I am currently not a member at a golf club because I cant get to play in any competitions so am not paying a load of money to play very rarely because booking a tee is hard at my old club. I left off of 8 but playing on courses in a society I have been shooting level/1 under very averagely. So I want to enter junior comps but cant join a club what should I do?

Thanks Connor

Update your profile first.

Welcome home!

Connor, cant you use the handicap trackers that are available on-line, and enter open comp at courses local to yourself.

I know our place has cheap memberships for young people and has golf mark awards??? Whatever they might be.??? We also have quite a good junior section who normally play comps with quite a few tee times slotted in on the Saturday with the rest of the comps.

Aside of joining a club if the above doesn't work I'm not sure what you can do.

I have played your course a few times may have to enquire about a membership. How much is a junior membership?

Why are you confused about being in college??

Could you not join a club with a 'credit' system - i.e say £200 up front and then you pay for credits which you use each time you play?? You students have untold holidays to use up....

And that is when I have to try and smash the overtime to get the money together for coming months bills and saving etc...

Society!

Isn't 'society handicap' an anagram of 'made up handicap'??

Welcome back Mono - only 78000 posts to go through to catch up!!

I'm not sure a Society/online handicap would be accepted for entry into Opens - I could be wrong but I think the only way to go is to bite the bullet, join a club and get a new handicap.

The best thing I dont was take a month out to clear my head and when I went back my 1st round back was in America and realised that I had the talent *cocky* but needed more practice. Had 3 months to myself and played everyday almost and hit the gym and now hit it further and more accurate than ever! Golf was the reason I joined the gym to hit further but after a look in the mirror at 13 stone and 29%bf decided I needed to sort it out!Got down to 10 stone and 7%bf and am not 12.3 stone and 8% bf. Just need to join back to a club I think!
