    That was a tough round!!! Played at a place called Tracy Park near Bath, on the Crown course which is the 'harder' of the two apparently. In reality not 'that' hard but we play a pretty easy course normally so it felt hard :p Rough was the worst bit, they've clearly only just started mowing...

    Turns out the greenskeepers were hollow tining the greens today... First one I got to was the 3rd, they started doing it as I tee'd off and as I got to the 3rd hole they were finishing up and moving on. Freshly tined greens suck. :p Knockout season is starting though and just got the singles...

    I just went with the Amazon Basics bag cause it was cheap :p I did add a "Golf Travel Bag Support Rod" thingy, basically an extendable rod that you put inside the golf bag then extend to give some structure to the bag if that makes sense... Also after reading bits here and there I decided to...

    I love morning golf :D Technically I was out second at 7:08 but the two-ball who had booked the first slot let me go first, there's something about being the first player out on the course tbh :p Very scruffy though, was trying a few new things so kinda got that as an excuse but also just some...

    As above the R&A Rules App is pretty good, includes all the rules verbatim, a way of getting to rules based on 'area' (e.g. you can select bunker and see all the relevant rules) and also a basic multiple-guess quiz section...

    Went out for some morning golf today, got a bit caught out early on with the greens being super firm/hard, no chance of me stopping on them... First real indication was the 2nd hole, a nice ~25-30 yard chip/pitch shot and landed it exactly where I wanted to a few feet onto the front of the...

    Another round today, we've had great weather down south and so buggies are now allowed on the fairways, let the lazy times commence :D :p Another mid-90's round, one terrible hole but really the main issue today was my putting. It's been fine for weeks now but today just so many putts either...

    Official 2024 Chinese Grand Prix Race Thread - Shanghai International Circuit - Race 5/24

    Whilst these days races are decided weeks in advance... We all knew Max was winning both Sprint and full Race before the weekend started. And he'll win the next race. And the race after that. It was/is boring when the race is decided in the first corner, it's even more boring when the race is...

    Agreed, and the stats back it up :p I also can't see anything but the same again next year, the RB is still far ahead of whatever the 2nd best car of the day is. They won't get a better driver than Perez in, best would be Ricciardo being told explicitly he's there as a number two, but all that...

    Usual Friday game today, course really is improving nicely with the dry weather we've been having. No longer need hedgehogs on the trolley and soon it'll be buggies on the fairways, good times \o/ Yet another wildly inconsistent game, 3 capped scores/pickups which is awful but otherwise some ok...

    The Lazrus stuff is pretty decent imo, I'd expect them to be pretty similar to the Kirkland/RAM stuff really. I had them before my Mizuno T24's and only really replaced them because the gapping was off after getting the Dynapowers... Same might be applicable to inflames though with them (and...

    I use the Golfpride MCC+4, although I basically only bought those cause they came in an Orange SKU :D

    Out for the monthly Society game today, played my 'joker' (the year long competition is 8 best scores + joker, you need to declare it before the round) and shock of shocks I scored 38 points. 4th game this year and 4th time scoring 38 points, consistency at least :p And yet, my game is very...

    So nice out there today, was tempted to wear shorts but thought it might be too muddy, it was definitely shorts weather already :p The course has improved dramatically in just a week, very rare muddy patches but mostly really quite dry/firm with some bounce and rollout, happy days \o/ Played...

    Bit windy out today :p Played Friday, was meh, only just broke 100. Out again today and that wind was kinda crazy at times... On the 5th I hit an 8 iron 146 yards then on the 15th I hit an 8 iron 86 yards. Both were pretty solid hits for me. Today was basically the definition of inconsistent...

    Not been playing online cause VM but the G25 wheel is still perfectly fine and I'd imagine the pedals would be too (mine 'broke' so I splased out on a new set as you do...) On that note was pricing up before the easter weekend a full rig setup... Rig (no chair, got one randomly) + Moza R12 base...

    Member of two cheap clubs! :p The lessons in the shop/simulator cost £30 for half an hour, the last lesson with the Pro at my local course cost £25, which was after a £5 discount for being a member. Nice, never got that from the simulator lessons, although could've done it myself I guess :p...
