Moody Blue Legend 61,835 Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Played Trump a couple of times. When it just opened.  Great course.  Think I hit about 110 blows each time.  Think it was £25 for locals. born a blue nose and Dickie1963 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You admittingly don't sound very good, but keep practicing.  When you love something and it sounds like you do, you will eventually have the round of your life or even a hole-in-one. It's what keeps me returning twice a week. I have loved the sport since I was a kid. Dan Deacon and born a blue nose 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkylineBlue 24,030 Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Right chaps, I'm a long time casual golfer and would be a high handicapper going to get back into it this summer and want to improve my ball striking. I'm going to go to the range on Friday morning, any advice/drills from the better players on here? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get on YouTube mate, amount of content that will explain things a lot better than cunts on here is brilliant. Rick shiels, Peter Finch etc. Or cheat and book in to get fitted for clubs, it will end up a free lesson if the guys decent 😂 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick shiels, Peter Finch etc. Or cheat and book in to get fitted for clubs, it will end up a free lesson if the guys decent 😂 Aye I've been watching a lot of golf YouTube throughout the years. I played 3 or 4 times a week during the first year of lockdown and I noticed a huge difference. Sometimes I was getting round 9 holes maybe only 5 or 6 over par, though that wasn't a regular occurance and was at pretty straight forward courses like Larkhall or Strathclyde. I then went for one lesson and the guy tinkered with the start of my downswing and it felt great in the lesson, but when I went to the range after it I couldn't hit a ball and it was a mess. Then the second lockdown hit and I couldn’t go for the rest of my lessons and ended up just stopped playing altogether. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Routenburn is a belter of a course and imo better than Largs Kelburn course. Will be cheaper too and easier to get a tee time as it's council run. It's a cunt of a walk though very hilly.

ShanksRFC 3,870 Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Shot an 82 scratch at Dundonald last weekend, first 18 holes I've played since September due to the wee mans arrival. Playing there again on Saturday morning, well worth the £75.00 Scottish resident fee. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing late afternoon so was easy enough getting a tee time. Will give Routenburn a try next time am down that way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
