Got what looks like a decent cart bag for £90 off it just waiting on it coming I know that's no what you are looking for but they usually have a decent selection of clothes. Clydeway near Uddingston has a good selection but not cheap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkylineBlue 23,961 Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 I was absolutely minging this morning. I couldn't strike the ball well at all and basically hacked my way round. Almost walked off at the 4th and though "just stick with it" and parred the 4th. Only good hole I played but thats what keeps you going back.

RFC RYAN 2,967 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Just had a look at my howdidido scores from medal tees the last year, only had 1 under par nett score and it happened the 13/7/19 ( a year ago today) obviously not played as many medals this season(only 1) so still held onto my 9 handicap (9.4 currently) I knew my game has been awful the last year but would have lost money on that stat. Felt I had lost the fundamentals so bought the Ben Hogan book on fundamentals and read the first 2 sections so far on grip and stance. Been a big eye opener for me and not even half way through the book. Actually convinced I have never had a proper left hand grip(more through my palm and fingers) . Book is called Ben Hogan five lessons: The modern fundimentals of golf, can pick it up for about £10-£11 online very handy for every golfer. Wasnt really missing golf as I have achilles tendonitis and been playing horrible. Now can't wait to get back on the course just waiting on my achilles clearing up done it 3 weeks ago and I stupidly tried to play golf a couple of times as thought it felt better but was killing me after the first hole. If anyone has any advice on getting rid of it besides ice and resting it I am all ears. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkylineBlue 23,961 Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 New Callaway Apex shoes arrived today in time for my morning round tomorrow. I ordered spikeless by accident but the reviews of them are tremendous with folk using then in winter conditions and still getting good traction apparently, so I'll keep them and give spikeless a go. Helps that I got them for an absolute steal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

northern bear 2,894 Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I'm really wanting to get back into it as used to be quite handy back in the day but having 2 young'ish kids has put it on the back burner and probably a bit late now given we are well into july. What is putting me off is the initial outlay. I still have my clubs but reckon I'd need a new set of irons and a driver. That with along with a membership in the region of 600 a year means I'd be shelling out a fair bit of cash. Got a wknd withates at dalmahoy in august but will more be about the drinking than the golf. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFC RYAN 2,967 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 You have 10 putts from 6ft how many are you expecting to get in the hole? There is a reason for this question that I will post. Before I heard the reason I said 7-8 out of 10 from 6ft. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkylineBlue 23,961 Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I had an absolute howler yesterday. I'm so streaky after starting back playing. I'm striking the ball well, long and straight, hooking it and slicing it all in the same round. I've got absolutely no consistency at all. I'm thinking about booking for a few lessons because it has to be my swing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
