Why? Is it because he isn't afraid to call a spade a spade and doesn't bow to certain clubs agendas?
No, I just find him an obnoxious know all!

Not sure what people were expecting. Good gesture from SG, IMO, and surprising they can afford it. How anyone thinks they could refund everything without bankrupting themselves is beyond me.
Lots of loud voices don't have faith in SG but it's wrong to say "nobody" does, plenty of us do.
Lots of bitching on social media. A depressingly large amount from people who aren't even engaged enough to know that the SGU no longer exists. In real life I think most golf club members are much more indifferent about it.
Bankrupting themselves might not be a bad idea, time for them to justify what they do with all the cash and scale back on all the free loaders and jobs for the boys oh and time for them to support the members and the clubs who pay them the money that gives them their very existence. Rather than offer Nomad golfers a handicap without being a member of a club that is just plain wrong and goes against every golf club in the country.Not sure what people were expecting.

Wasn't a name change though. It's an entirely new organisation merged from the SGU and SLGA.
No, left there a couple of years ago - currently at Mortonhall.
Not sure who you mean by "free loaders and jobs for the boys" though?
it is, even knowing most of whats in this it still makes for some poor readingWhat a brilliant article.

Golf has a time problem.
It’s perceived as a game for those who can spare a whole day for it only. Travel, clubhouse plus round time can be 7 hours.
When golf solves this it will start to solve its other issues.
I have a feeling Nicklaus suggested 14 holes if golf was being designed now ?. 12 or 14, either would be fine with me ?.I have said for the last 20 years that the authorities should make all golf courses 12 holes.
Solves a lot of problems in one dramatic move.
I agree, except, I would still have an 18 hole course. "Front 9" to be 12 holes, "back 9" to be 6 holes, (or t'other way round). It would suit the new wave of short time span golfers. Some could do six holes during lunch. If you have a bit longer, do twelve. For the competitions, the full eighteen. Makes sense in this busy world.I have said for the last 20 years that the authorities should make all golf courses 12 holes.

me too, i'd like more holes not lessI'm more than happy with golf being 18 holes.
