Unpopular golfing opinions

99% of custom fitting is absolutely useless and is just a sales technique.

Oh I like this game. Let me think.

“I prefer watching the women’s PGA than the European Tour”

I was nearly taken over the coals over that comment one Sunday morning. No one spoke to me for 3 holes.

Ok I’ll be controversial.
there is way too much women’s golf being pushed on sky sports nowadays.
Give me europro/challenge tour coverage over LPGA EVERYDAY of the week

Tiger is the GOAT

If you are playing 18 holes in under 3.5 hours you aren’t getting your money’s worth.

Old Course St Andrews is a great course.

Lytham is a great looking scenic course and the tightness and claustrophobia of the railway line and hemmed-in section around the 9th adds to the course in a good way

 

[PhilTheFragger]

Anyone over 20 handicap should be given a mulligan or Anti Joker to be used at any time

Because we obviously need it ?

Game improvement clubs don't improve tge game at all.

 

[evemccc]

Those who happily receive ‘gimmees’ whilst trying to improve as golfers need to look at themselves

Golf forums don’t need moderating.

The European Tour is nothing but a feeder tour for the PGA.

Bogey golf should be std play .. exceed the par by more than 1 and you pick up and move on. Fed up of watching some plonk line up a putt like they were playing the masters for a 7 ... but controversial I know.
Women’s competition at our club are always off their playing tee ... take them back to a competition tee.
Let the seniors play from another tee .. it’s horrible watching them try to carry a 90yard gully or water hazard.
Put hazards at 260-280 yards for the thrashers to enjoy.
Water the greens so they take some spin,
Don’t shave the grass so tight the mud is proud.

Playing golf in America is easy, perfect lies no rough wide fairways ...

People thinking they can "feel" the difference in golf balls... The biggest remaining marketing con and myth in the game.

I felt the difference between yours and mine ?

 

[PhilTheFragger]

hybrids should be banned.

Are we talking cars or golf utensils?

Asking for a friend ??

 

[Ridgeman]

Ex-Footballers shouldn't be allowed inside the ropes to follow the pro's during tournaments.

Anyone under 35 should still be playing football at weekends
