mclovin9091 1,388 Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 12 minutes ago, MacBoyd said: You need to have the short game obviously but big hitters do well there, hardly any punishment for wayward drives. Granted wayward drives aren't as punishing as they could be (especially today, seen a fiar amount into the trees only to get a favourable ricochet back towards the fairway.) Although with stronger lofted irons even if you only drove 280 yards total, then theres only 3 holes you couldn't reach in 2. I think if you played conservative and went for birdies on the par 5s, you would walk away better over the weekend than if you attacked the 2nd shot and ended up in bother.

mitre_mouldmaster 21,509 Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Always good showing is the Masters! By the way, my 10 year old GoKart trolley gave up the ghost yesterday, and have decided to go push cart to replace it. Got bored to tears trying to work out which one to go for so just went for the Clikgear 4.0. Anyone know if its any good? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a farce, also still can't understand the 0.95 multiplier for competition handicap, the whole thing is overly complicated. We have taken a system from the yanks, the country that gave us 'mash potato' as a shout at golf tournaments. Given up trying to fully understand it now.

RFC RYAN 2,967 Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 Nett scores aren't really relevant with it more just gross.

They Gnu 11,553 Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Right gents, my Ping G20s (graphite) are starting to give me grief the heads came off my PW 3 times and my 4 iron on Monday. 50 quid a pop to repair, so time for new bats. Any suggestions I’m in my 60s and handicaps gone up to 14, so something for the slower swing? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TEFTONG 60,108 Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 Im still probably too emotional but im willing old Richard Bland to win the British Masters right now. Never won a title in over 460 odd attempts and is the Clubhouse leader. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TEFTONG 60,108 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 That was a wonderful win for Bland. Seems like a well liked guy amongst his fellow Pros and with only one bogey in 4 rounds he deserved to win. dummiesoot 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
