Wanted - YOUR reviews of gear and courses

[MikeH]

Morning all

as of the May coverdated issue of Golf Monthly (you've just had March with Rory on the cover) we'll be introducing a page of reader reviews in both the Equipment and Courses sections.

These will primairly be sourced from the 'post a review' forum but as the series gets going I'm sure non-forumer readers will start submititng direct to GM as we'll have a send your reviews to GM call to action on the pages

Anyway, its not only a chnace to get the opinions of you, the grass roots golfer, heard but also to win stuff as well as any review featuered will win a prize.

For expmaple the best review featured on the Courses page each month will win a pair of FJs with some tasty runners up prizes too!

Not bad for a few minutes of your time

So, what are you waitng for, get posting your reviews!

I can only describe that as a thorough review!
Would need a lot of editing but better too much detail than nothing of substance
Ideal length is the 300-400 word length and we'll edit down from there

Unfortunately Gareth I dont think that Mike is wanting the reviews to take up 5 pages!

Cheers Mike :thup:

I'd rather put a little too much info in rather than not enough.

My personal opinion is it's best to add pictures as well as text as a picture tells 1000 words and clears any confusion about a specific point. For someone is looking into buying the product it just adds a little more detail.

Tha's just me though :smirk:

Or the magazine thicker - only worry is then though is that it might not fit through the letterbox

(Was a good review by the way)

Trouble is Gareth by the time you have read the review, a new model will probably have come out.

Sad but true!

Think I have already reviewed JPX driver, hybrid, 3 wood in fact need to buy some more JPX gear to have something new to rave about.

I'll submit a review of my 712 AP2s as soon as the weather is not either blowing a gale or bitterly cold. This is a very frustrating time of year to buy new clubs!

Go for it! No restrictions on what gear you can review from drivers to training aids all welcome
