Arnold Palmer and a few others will be spinning. Remote control man visually, he looks like a mature adult, internally his box hasn't developed. Professional golf on so many fronts is deteriorating to SPFL levels, cheating, objects launched onto playing surfaces and players being verbally abused. Listening to the audio on the clip, there's many other heidcases supporting the tit with the remote. Wonder what the ref's would've done if Rory had've putted the ball into the pond...Or, was Rory aware of the consequences had he done so? Good pitch right into the middle of the pond Rory...👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a few I play with have and say it's good value for the green fees they charge. St Michael's is another which is worth a play for the price they charge.

Great course I thought - the 9th (I think) is a stunning a hole. Hoping to get back to it soon. Did enquire at the start of the year about a membership there as it's only half an hour away from me, offered me a country membership which was cheaper as well.

I wouldn't classify them as nobodies. All feature regularly on the main tours and all pretty established. Niemann is only about 22/23 with tour wins and risen to the top 20 in the world from being ranked #1 amateur. There will be more names to follow on the back of the President's Cup too.

ri Alban Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 (edited) It's amazing how Rory, a lad from NI gets to pick where he plays, The USA and not the European tour. Yet others have to stay where they are, so these auld pricks can hold onto to their own power and riches. They don't own golf. C'mon LIV.

dicksojo Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 I had a lesson a couple of months back and I can safely say it was the best lesson I have ever had. Ball striking is so much better and the occasional draw is even on the cards. I’ve had lessons in the past but this one just seemed to click. Anyone else had a lesson that dramatically improved their game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiming for end of September though 🤞 Thanks - Was DQ from the medal as I missed my Tee Time - Took 1 hour 45 to go from Dunfermline to Gullane this morning (usually 45-50 on a Sat morning) due to roadworks between Lothianburn and Straiton - Feck those guys - So I was over 10 mins late when I had planned to be there over 30 mins early to have a swing. Anyway I was 3 or 4 over after 12 and was playing quite well, but I tired up really quick and had a 8 then 7 in two holes, 1 lost ball. Also found 7 different bunkers today. best thing though, was that I played with Thomas who was off +2 and he shot a 66 Scratch. Was wonderful to watch, and he missed a few good birdie opportunities but had a great eagle on the 12th. Happy to have played again, haven't upset my injury - I am bloomin knackered though! So unfit!

toonland Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Started playing golf again this month after about a 17 year absence hadnt played since the school holidays as a bairn. Must say loving it at the moment. Cut my shots down drastically already now going round 30 over which isn’t bad IMO. Using my brothers old clubs which probably isn’t ideal as I’m a bit taller and 6ft4 so think I’ll need to get measured if am going to take it seriously. Can see myself getting a few lessons to just to keep me right but will wait till I have my own measure clubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I played it last week, it was named as Airngath (white tees) on a Garmin device ( should it help)... In addition, you've likely already done it but would a software upgrade assist?

Tommy Brown Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 As a basic GPS golf watch it works perfectly well as any other watch. This can be bought as a G3 version for a bit cheaper than your comparable Garmin, Bushmills models. If you go to a V3 version for £145 , you get a set of sensors that you attach to each club. This allows you to upload your round to your app and see each shot on a gps map. This gives you the shot distance which is mostly what I am interested in. You can go super geeky, the app will analyse the data into Gir, fairways hit, putt count etc. Go onto website https://shotscope.com/uk/ Have a good look at what results it gives you. It is well worth the money compared to Garmins and Bushnells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally think it's the most enjoyable of the Links Trust courses and would definitely play that ahead of the Old Course again. The recent warm and wet weather has helped with the condition. Greens were receptive and running well. Worth a visit for anyone considering trying somewhere different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
