@secretclubprov The members clubs around me are full with waiting lists and don’t need loads of visitors. Some privately owned clubs near me are crying out for members and visitors and spend the bare minimum on the course due to the owners creaming off a massive wage for themselves 🤔

@LocalHistorian_ The problem is not the car they get, it’s the none disabled that get motability cars. Play 18 holes of golf , ie walk 6miles and then drive home in your motability car 🤔

@secretclubprov I wear short white socks which are allowed at our golf club. I don’t have any issues with anyone wearing long socks if they want to, although I can’t see the point when you’re trying to keep as cool as you can on a hot day.

@ianmckee58 @secretclubprov If you discount it people still moan. In March our green fees was about 40% of summer green fees and you got food included. Some people were still moaning on social media about the condition of the greens after they’d played.

@SteveCarroll77 I play at a club where everyone takes a bag of soil / seed mix and fills any divot they make on the fairway. Very rare for this to happen to you except in rough or heather.

@brendangolf @secretclubprov How does missing a hole work in a medal ??

[Steve Shepherd @Shepherd1Steve]

@yarwoodwilliam @the_tpa It makes my piss boil when I’m at the golf club. You see people walk approximately 7 miles round the course and then jump in their brand new motability car to go home 🤷‍♂️

[Steve Shepherd @Shepherd1Steve]

@secretclubprov Clubs that are owned by one individual that I’ve been a member of are always focused on making as big a wage as possible for that individual. They have the attitude of if you don’t like it, go elsewhere. Which is ok until a decent percentage of members do exactly that 👆

@NCG_com People moan that expensive club subscriptions are circa 2K per year, that’s approximately £38 per week.
There are many clubs much less expensive, there’s some cracking clubs in North east for less than £10 per week.

[Steve Shepherd @Shepherd1Steve]

@NCG_com There should be a limit for general play scores to two per quarter. This would help prevent bandits manipulating there handicap for upcoming events that they want an advantage in.

@hannaholdengolf Can’t find it on YouTube 🤔

@secretclubprov At our club it’s mainly fit able bodied visitors out in buggy’s, why don’t they walk ffs. Club loves hiring buggy’s to them tho💰

@James_Robbo_PGA Sorry for your loss James. It gets easier as time goes on, but sometimes you wish you could ask them their opinion on something.

@Miners_Strike At the last election Corbyn alienated many labour voters from the Coalfield constituency’s, looks like Starmer will do the same.

@SteveCarrollNCG I’m not on the handicap committee, however EG need to sort out the issues that didn’t exist before WHS, rather than rely on some volunteer to do it for them.

[Steve Shepherd @Shepherd1Steve]

@SteveCarrollNCG Tbf they are mainly retired guys who are volunteers, they probably don’t want the conflict and I don’t blame them really
