@pgsgolfer@secretclubprov Nope, I have a great pro who offers great service which is a genuine help to my game, so happy to pay for it. If you havent got that then that's a shame and I understand why you wouldn't spend money with them
@pgsgolfer@secretclubprov Everything is price driven is your opinion, not a fact. Many companies exist because their service is superior, not because they are a few pounds cheaper than their competitors. Would you be ok with your club not having a pro or a shop?
@pgsgolfer@secretclubprov Of course they aren't "serious players in the market" if the market is mass purchase low margin sales. They aren't competing with American golf et all as they provide a different service. My pro fitted me for a 3 wood and played 9 holes with me to see it was ok on the course.
@gazhagu@secretclubprov Some (not all reasons):
- we need a club pro therefore need them to make money
- personal service. The internet doesn't know your golf game
- custom fitting and re-custom fitting as your game changes
- supporting your golf club
- not being a cheap skate
@HackedOffHugh Except in politics, where it seems you can prove someone lied, even present evidence to their face, and they can then lie some more to get away with it. It's like a parallel universe where truth is irrelevant.
@DavidWohl Spot on. If we had the same gun laws in the UK then it probably wouldn't have happened as all involved would've had their heads blown off years ago. It makes sense that you're friends with Trump. He's a fucking dickhead also.
The NHS is on its last legs, and the only treatment the Tories would offer it is a few more years of palliative care before its final trip to Dignitas.
@Guymowbray The irony that the media scrutinised every decision by officials a thousand times with the benefit of countless replays and angles, then the Gov bodies try to fix it, and that's criticised for being too accurate. I feel any alternative system would also be criticised.
