Also which xxx flexed their cyber powers and moved a golf discussion from the lounge!

Pretty pathetic and petty to be honest.

I have to agree. The only 'I leaving thread' where the OP stuck to his promise was Timgolf, all the rest are pale imitations.:D

Even Steve in Spain can back to give us a weather update:confused:
 
Craw,

I would pack the game in for a bit if I was you. I have done the same a couple of times over the years when I felt like I was just not enjoying the game. I just stuck my kit in a cupboard and forgot about golf. I didn't play for a year once and I didn't miss it either. Out of the blue, a mate asked me if I fancied a knock one Saturday and I thought why not? Dusted the clubs down, borrowed some shoes and had a very enjoyable 18 holes and started to play again.

Even these days, I know that I am not suited to the type of golf that plenty on the forum enjoy. For example, I would not want to be in a club where medal rounds took 5 hours and you had to play with people who took forever to hit their shot. It would do my head in and I wouldn't enjoy it.

For this reason, and granted somewhat selfishly, I pick and choose my playing partners, games and courses carefully so that I get what I want from golf and it doesn't become a slog. In fact, these are exactly the reasons that I favour the West Sussex GC. Maybe you should have a good think about golf from a selfish perspective too and really work out what you want from the game and make a plan to achieve it?


Anyway, it is not a big deal to take a sabbatical and you will probably find it quite cathartic. My only other bit of advice would be to suggest that you get stuck into another pursuit of some sort to fill your spare time.

Hope this helps and that you are feeling a bit more cheerful.

Cheers,


Snelly.
 
thecraw, LISTEN.

We have never met and we probably never will, as we are about 439 miles apart, but, before you feel too depressed for your own good, I want you to listen to this................listen often................and listen good,

if you still want to sell up & move on then I suggest you do, but my advice would be to take a few weeks/months off and remind yourself why you began playing in the first place and remember all the laughs golf has brought you.

Good luck fella,

Slime.
 
I gave up for years, but kept my clubs just in case I fancied playing again. The woods were not much use when I did start up again, as they were persimmon, but the irons and putter were ok.

I think this is Crawfords way of getting a brand new set of shinies in the spring, when he comes out of hibernation. Hope you are playing again by next October, when I will be looking for a game.

He was getting a new set anyway as his we're going back to ping. As for driver, hybrids etc...........wouldn't matter if he was chucking it or not, he'd be changing anyway :rofl:

Seems a bit like shouting "jump" at a poor guy standing on the ledge of a high building while others are trying to talk him down! :angry:

Which begs the question....

Why on earth did you ever change them?????

The irons were Taylormade Burners, circa 1997, graphite shafts and the size of shovels. Got £150 on ebay for them four years ago;) Thinking of bringing the persimmon wood back into play though.
