Golf

This is fast becoming my latest obsession. Back out again tomorrow
The photos can’t give this place justice. It’s been carved out into the sand dunes at my most local coastal town. Today’s environmental laws would absolutely not allow this as a new project to go ahead.

I am in at the deep end as well, starting properly this year after a couple of sim bay lessons late last year. Not many pics, my phone is usually in my bag. @AdamC @AdamJ and I are getting in a few 9s at Gosport Stokes Bay Golf Club, and I have Wanstead 15mins from home that I play at with local mates too
Can get pretty windy in Gosport...

@Brock Thank you for showing your bag and mentioning them a bit ago…I’ve went back and forth a few times playing with different ideas on what I wanted and finally decided on this:
“our policy of no discussions regarding politics, religion, asparagus, and other controversial issues.” - Andrew

@goosehd I love it! I would carry that any day!
And it will last you a lifetime -
@guiltyparty we do have one quiet day...
-
@Alex ....recommend Waterlooville. A group of us from my club played in the seniors open a few weeks back.,.really lovely course.
-
Thank you Alex...im well and always lurking about.
I hope you and yours are well.
Let me know if you're ever playing there and need to make up numbers...would happily join you for a round.

@bryaneidins70 My in laws go to functions at the club semi-regularly and they said how nice it is there. Couldnt believe the cost to join when I was looking. Portsmouth Golf Club in Crookhorn is a walk from my house and I think probably a little easier of a course
which is needed at the moment -
Back at golf again today.
Thought I’d push the Country Clubs strict “no jeans” policy and wear my 634 ducks. Turns out that they must consider them to be pants instead and never said a word. So, looks like I don’t new pants after all.
Yet another course with kangaroo’s all over the place.
18 holes with 5 bogeys and 1 on par.Down the rabbit hole I go

The unspeakable iin pursuit of the inedible.
Sorry, Oscar. -
Fatigues are my golf pants and shorts!!

@bryaneidins70 I do but I am currently getting back into playing after being a member of my local golf club 15 years ago in my early 20s. With 2 young kids I am playing once a week if that so any membership cost would be a bit of a waste for me. I think if I was able to play a few times per week, and enjoy the clubhouse etc it would still be expensive-ish for where it is, but you get what you pay for!
-
@AdamC Yes it can get expensive if you don't play a few times a week. My club do a points system membership for people who cant play often but still want the benefits of being a full
member...playing in comps, handicap etc.Weekend play uses more points than midweek play and you can top up when you get low.
I am looking forward to the post about a IHUK society day
-
@bryaneidins70 Fantastic shout! Watch this space haha.
That sounds like a great option re the points system membership
-
@bryaneidins70 the IH day will need to wait a bit, I've done some damage to my MCL off the tee yesterday evening - waiting to found out the extent of it tomorrow..
