Bit out of my price range just spent 150 on a bag and getting 10 grips done tomorrow. You should save yourself a fortune wully and do the grips on your own. It's really easy to do, just really need the new grips, the tape for underneath, petrol or white spirit and a Stanley knife to remove the old ones.

Affordable golf grips are cheap and they grip them for free if you buy them from there. Also cheaper again when you get 6 or more done at the same time.

dummiesoot 16,013 Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Played costa Adeje on Friday, toughest greens i have ever putted on. Around 13 on stimp and huge slopes and steps. I though I putted well and still 3 stabbed around 6 times. Fairly forgiving layout off tee but very tricky around the greens. 6 holes each of par 3s, 4s and 5s.

If you have never played them try ladybank, crail balcomie, lundin links are all spectacular. Always found them good to deal with for visiting parties, same with drumoig.

Sket 13,610 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Hit 91 round Deer Park yesterday,never played there before. 44 out and 47 in. 4 sixes and 2 7s on the back 9 ruined me. Sunk a belter of a shot from the bunker though Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reason they are cored and sanded just now is due to taking a pounding couple weeks ago hosting the Scottish Boys Strokeplay. During practice and competition days the weather was poor n the traffic was showing on the course. Lanark is playable all year round because of the land it's on, coring just now will see greens are excellent right through until late in the year.
