Just got back from Canada

[Coatsy79]

Bought some Oakley ripcord spikeless shoes for $42!!!!!

That's something like £26/27 bargain I say

Not much else was cheap though they still sell TM burner 1.0 drivers for $200

Did hit the ping anser driver while there and it was bloomin lovely $500 a pop mind!!!!!!

should have popped on here and got a few orders

I know from my IT enthusiast days Canada can be expensive for a lot of things so the shoes were an absolute bargain

Loads of courses over there, bugger all open though, they're a fair weather bunch it would seem

The people over there are probably still thawing out normally snow on ground about 7 months of the year aint there? Nice buy on the Oakley's. Good stuff Oakley got a couple of their shirts, also got a pair of their sunglasses only time I have worn them is when I visit my mates in Australia never worn them in the UK!!

Indeed, snowed last Thursday! I think the courses open sometime this week was just starting to warm up as I left, I think it's why most of the rich Canadians flock to Florida in the winter :lol:

Nearly in May and it's still snowing Think I would be goin to Florida in the Spring and Autumn as well as Winter if I was Canadian. Looks a lovely scenic country though, definitely on my list of places to visit

Had my best holidays in Canada. Not played there but courses I've seen look wonderful - Banff golf club looked awesome, hit on the range in Whistler and enjoyed the most scenic range ever.

Banff Golf club is that the one that is part of the Fairmont lodge complex

All my old relatives do! Off to to sample Canada myself in a few weeks. Hope I can get out on the course with someone, anyone! Been banned from taking my clubs though... something to do with having to spend SOME time with the family
