Check out golf empire, I'd never heard of it before about 2 years ago. I think it is mid-level handicappers from 10-18 or 12-20, something like that.

A fluffy animal, or a ladies play thing? Or maybe a good chat?

Thought it was high handicappers???

Just checked 2 opens out on golf empire, one was hcaps 9-24, one was 15-28.
Maybe its not set in stone, but avoids single handicappers or cat 1 golfers.

High handicapper is my understanding too. We have a Rabbit Cup at our club which is for players who have never held a h/c below 19, so that backs it up!

Ahh it all makes sense now - ours is called the Angora cup and I didn't know why!

High handicappers, usually 18+.

Heard them called Coneys too which is a type of Rabbit i'm sure.

Ash!!

Ahhhhh, so next time my wife says that she fancies a bit of fun with her rabbit, I should follow her upstairs then. Not just put a movie on and open a beer.

Is there such a thing as a beaver?

In West Yorkshire we have the rabbits league which is a 4bbb matchplay comp between clubs with no one allowed to play under the handicap of 16 we also have tigers which is usually 4-14 hcp an then the scratch hope that clears I up

No no no, you chase her up stairs and get the smart phone out to record
