  1. I certainly don’t feel old in myself, and at 52 I don’t think I am. However as a cop when I started stopping drivers who hadn’t been alive as long as I’ve been a cop did make me think that maybe I was old
  2. Played the course i’m a member at, Sidcup in SE London, today and did it as a solo 2 ball scramble. Played some really nice shots, and didn’t bother with a second attempt on quite a few of them. Managed to go round in 2 over which I was very pleased with as my course handicap is 17
  3. Par 4 338yds Totally mishit my tee shot and send it off into the rough on the right leaving me around 175 yards to the pin. Pull out the 3 hybrid and hit what felt like a lovely shot. Due to this hole being on an upslope with the green on the downside you can’t see the green until you get within about 50 yards so didn’t see it land. Get up to the green to be greeted with this Don’t ask me how I managed to get backspin on a 3 hybrid out of the rough but I was well pleased with myself and it certainly made up for the terrible drive!
  4. Date 03/17/2024 Course Name Sidcup Golf Club Gross Score 70 Course Handicap 0 Gross Strokes over/under par 2 Net Score to Par 2 Net Score 70 Net Birdies or better Longest Drive TYPE OF ROUND SOLO SCRAMBLE
  5. I love the look of the current Ping range but am very happy with my Odyssey 2 ball ten putter and Mavrik irons so hard choice for me
  6. Congrats on the 10k! Just shows how much you put into this forum
  7. I use the X5, and before that the V3, and find the watches very unobtrusive. You hardly notice them when playing and they pick up virtually all shots so the only thing you need to do is mark the position of the hole.
  8. Callaway Mavrik 9 degree adjusted to 11 with draw bias and Project X Hzrdus T800 shaft. Had it 3 years now and comfortable with it
  9. Well Jeff, from Sauce Golf, has got back to me already which is damn good considering the time difference between him and UK. He is gonna look into costs for getting a towel out to me and hopefully I will be able to put some more business his way once people have seen the towel
  10. Thanks, will let you know how I get on
  11. Gotta agree with the majority here in that I’m more interested in people looking after the course and keeping a reasonable pace of play than how they are dressed. I have no problem with a dress code and my own club has one but does it really make any difference to the quality of the course? Not really Having said that I have played some really strict courses here in UK including one where I got reprimanded for having the wrong length socks whilst wearing shorts. The club maybe thought they were being progressive by allowing shorts, but in my opinion the sock issue was ridiculous! I mean what impact does the length of your socks have?
  12. These look like a really good design but unfortunately don’t seem to be available here in UK. I’m gonna message them and see if there’s any way to get them here
