Southerness is well worth the trip, played their open last year. I was glad it was a Texas scramble though as it's a brute of a course, especially with a wind blowing.

Has anyone booked a round in Belek as a one off? Ie a family holiday but nipped out for a round one day?

 

None of the travel companies seem to want to know, I’m guessing because I’m not wanting the full shebang.

Weathers looking more pleasant, course fully open now albeit with preferred lies. So excited to get back out there.

My father in law being the gimp that he is has been putting a dot on the calendar every day it has rained.

 

According to him we’ve only had 10 dry days in the last 225 😂

Taking inspiration from the cheap strips thread, I tried out grips from Temu. 10 iomic grips plus a fitting kit from ebay, total cost about £25. Grips are very good quality and hopefully they last a few years 🤞

Have used knock off/cheap grips a couple of times and it is absolutely worth the money paying for the 'real' deal.

 

If you want to shoot good scores, paying a bit more for decent grips is worth it. You might find the way you grip the club changes as the grip smooths out and loses the cushion.

🤣 do you work in a golf shop? I'm never paying for overpriced rubber and someone to fit them ever again.

:laugh: nope.

 

Bought knock off Golf Pride grips once and they were a nightmare to get on right and align, they twisted and warped a little. After a season they look like they'd shrunk and lost the cushion feel.

£4 a grip for those isn't bad, clearly not as fancy as a Golf Pride MCC but more trusted than eBay grips made from recycled car tyres/toxic shit.

Mine fitted on pretty easily i found, only time will tell how good they really are, but first impressions are good.

Really looking forward to it. I think we’re a bit early to get the heather in bloom but I imagine it will still be in good condition. 

 

Have you been down yet?
