• Thank you all very much for sharing your time with us in 2025. We hope you all have a safe and happy 2026!

Off on a road trip - have I bitten off too much?

Sounds like an ideal scenario but i've got to say that much golf would have me laid up in bed with an inability to move.

Have a great week , will be interesting to see how the golf gets on day to day
 
That is certainly a lot of golf / driving! I think your game will actually hit a peak half way through the trip, and then decline as you become slightly 'golfed out'. There is a lot of walking involved, and then you have issues such as blisters to contend with- both on your feet and perhaps hands, simply due to overuse. It may well give your all round stamina a good test.

That said I wouldn't be against going on a similar trip, I hope you get the weather and that it is as enjoyable as it currently seems. Play well.
 
I didn't know you were getting 2 practice rounds in at Hoylake before our knock.
Note to self " load up web site and study layout"

I am envious of your trip but really looking forward to Wednesday. 2 days booked off work in readiness. :D

Don't know about taking his coin Dodger

At least you are travelling in comfort Mike. Save some of your game for Wednesday,,, but not too much :D

Shouldn't have problems with blisters unless you are planning a couple of rounds per day.
Couple of pairs of shoes should suffice.
 
I am soooooooo jealous of you playing hoylake, if anyone drops out for wednesday at hoylake i will gladly step in. ;) ;)
