Pure_Quality 3,295 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Played the Fullerton course at Troon municipal on Sunday, my least favourite Troon course usually, as it's so short.Have to say though, it was in magnificent condition. Fairways, bar one hole, in great condition and the greens were like a snooker table.Playing Lochgren or Darley on Sunday, which are usually better, so can't wait!

Greens are really top class, I've played in the US and Portugal and not seen much better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFC RYAN 2,967 Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Club championship round 1 on Saturday that's the round for the low score of the season. Then a couple of weeks on Saturday handicaps 0-12 are at Colvilles and the other half are at Wishaw not played it since last year but heard the greens are awful and slow the now.

They are 5 and 10Would it also be useful to get them some lessons?Not sure if they still do it but Costco used have good sets for juniors would recommend John Letters. I wouldn't bother with lessons at that age maybe in a couple of years for your older one, just you tell them what to do. Not sure if you are a member of a club but some clubs do junior coaching during the summer for free so check local clubs see if they do. I would just let them enjoy it the now and put your older one into the classes if there is any during the summer as pros are very good with juniors.

They are 5 and 10Would it also be useful to get them some lessons?For good sets for juniors, the best are Callaway, Ping Moxie & Wilson staff. Titleist , Mizuno & nike are not the best for catering to kids. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank god for the recent dry spell because it is a nightmare when wet.Stay outta the bunkers the sand is far too deep and heavy to hit proper bunker shots out when faced with a five foot high steep face. Pot luck hitting shots out of those. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFC RYAN 2,967 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Played today a bounce game as not playing tomorrow had. A 79 scratch off the yellows so played well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
