Golf blogs are great.

If you come in with a good Stableford score and want to tell others then you should always say if it included any blobs.

1. People are interested.
2. it proves that you're actually even better than it appears.

............ and you have to describe how they occurred in detail to justify how unlucky they were!

Parkland courses should revert back to farmland.

Some of ours does in Winter

If only we had marker pens ??

Can you write or would you just draw a picture?

Peter Alliss was a truly appalling commentator over the past 20 years.

 

[chrisd]

Would you bother looking? ?

That's a leading question Mi'lud

Moderators on golf forums should be able to play to at least a decent standard ……

Define decent?
Beat Imurg over 9 holes today 19 points with a blob..........so 19 points then

Golfing ability has no relationship to ones ability to control unruly children ?

Along with that, if playing medal you should always mention the number of 3 putts when you tell others your score.

You should always also say what your score could have been if you hadn't gone in the lake on 16.

God, I miss Fish???

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

It’s never worth playing fewer than 18 holes.

I still remember your laughing at Fish, I think at Blackmoor when his mammoth(?) Drive was followed by digging his 7 iron deep into the fairway and duffing it - how you laughed ??

I believe the “great drive” from Smithy was appreciated, the timing was perfect as was the huge divot going about 10 yards. Nearly as good as the 5 putt that day ?

But then parkland golfers would pack your links courses...

Only if they are allowed on!?

And, in any event, I am a member of a club with a parkland course.

I still believe golf should really only be played on good draining soil, links and heathland. I don't play from mid-November to mid-March for this very reason.

Aimpoint is a load of nonsense

Surely that’s a popular opinion ?

Would add that a pre shot routine is a waste of time for anyone above 5 handicap ?

And practice swings.
Don't recall ever seeing one that is replicated kn the actual shot.
