New golf shoes – Slazenger v100
My old pair of golf shoes where Dunlop Biom 100 and they have served we reasonably well considering they were only £24.99. If they have done 40 rounds of 18 holes I think that would be conservative. However, they have had their day now with cuts to the side and leaking water.
Looking for more consistency with the driver
After having my first golf lessons and they going out of the course for a number of rounds, it was inevitable that there would be one area (more than others) that I was going to need help with. That area is without doubt off the tee with the driver. Therefore I have set about trying […]

My golfing journey – the start

However after playing for a long time, life got in the way and I stopped playing regularly, just playing the occasional round […]

Having been to this event over 10 years ago as a marshal and thoroughly enjoyed it, and as the event was held at Royal Lytham & St Annes Gold Course which is not far I decided to go again and had a great day out in lovely weather.
9 Holes of Golf at Highfield Golf Course – Higher Wheelton
I used to play golf a lot when I was younger. I must have been around 14 or 15 and I used to go to this course at Highfield nearly every weekend. Having not played a proper round for a few years I headed back to Highfield on a sunny June afternoon for another go.
