Withdrawal symptoms

[TonyN]

Ok i aint played for over a week, normally i play at least every monday and tuesday sometimes even wednesday. And at the range thurs or fri. But i aint even been the range in the last week due to work and a niggly shoulder.

What do you all do to cope with the torment of not playing. Me personally, i lock my self away and play tiger woods 08 on 360 till my mrs switches the electic off?

How long can you go with out a game before it starts to creep in?

A day without golf is like a day without..... Who knows, never gone a day without. In my dreams anyway.

I like to play at least twice a week, and about 4 times a week in summer. Only really don't play if I am on holiday, and then I only get withdrawal symptoms if I pass a course. Especially if I can see some numpty making a hash of it.

And you have time for work and other things in life?

I play Sat/Sun (wife permitting although she is normally a good old stick). I try and get to the range on a Wed/Fri night after work.

In the summer I'll be at the club 7 days a week either playing a few holes or hitting some balls on the practice ground.

Even at work I'm looking at the forum, thinking about golf or looking at new stuff to buy.

Is there anything in the world apart from golf??? (tongue in cheek before I start a forum war!)

yeah i manage to keep fit and erm.. well there is....and what about.... or that thing, actually no wonder people think i'm obsessed.

I stopped smoking just to spend more on golf, it seems I traded one addiction in for another.

I ordered loads last night after weeks of surfing the net and weighing up the pros and cons...

Benross Mens V6 Trimass VMC 3 wood (only £40 )
MIZUNO AEROLITE II STAND BAG (STAFF COLOURS)
MIZUNO MX-19 3-SW with decade compound & +1 degree custom!!

Well that lot should get my hcp down from 20 this season if nothing else will.

Buying a handicap, nice idea. Not sure it will work, but I won't tell anyone if you don't.

haha. yeah it is kinda like an addiction. I cant spend anymore now, i need a rescue wood but promised the mrs i wouldnt spend more than £40. (Any suggestions?) I downloaded a free golf game the other day to on me laptop to play in work. From skill ground. might just get tiger woods but dont really wanna waste money cause i have it on the 360

Interesting shout about the Mizuno bag. You seen the 2008 Twister 3 bag. Looks the mutts nuts to me

Hi Tony,

Take a look on this site its review's from real people there will be loads of rescue clubs on here.

Although the Ram Wizard is not on here i have been told that for around £19-39 its good for the money.

I also note that Online Golf have the V6 Trimass rescue clubs on offer for £39.00. Have not tried them personally but own the 3 wood and think that it is top value for money.
