Now we are into the new season , golf tales and course ratings is the order of play .

You wouldn't like to put that in English would you Fliper?

ok fliper ... talk us though your Easter golfing prowess hot by shot .... lol!

Looking foward to four games of golf over easter . I came down with flu , only one round played .

was that after the round of golf?
if so was it really that awful that repetition of the pain did not bear thinking about?

Refer to my comment on umn thread , dry throut .

replied! ..... stop trying to cadge on sympathy vote ..... lol!

Had my best ever driving day off the tee at Longcliffe yesterday. Of 15 drives 14 hit the fairway or as close to make no difference, probably averaged 250 yards, some of which were into a stiff wind. Mind you couldn't hit an iron to save my life, so quite disappointing overall. One day it will all come together at the same time :S

I am booked in at longcliffe on june 15th

Is that a comp Fliper or just a day out?

looks a pretty course ..... primarily parkland i take it with plenty of mature trees ..... shall play hookey tomorrow afternoon and hope to continue Monday's form .... fat chance!

LCGC is supposedly one of the toughest if not the toughest in Leicestershire Cynic. Well worth a round if you ever have the opportunity, but don't expect a good score! Early in the year yet, but signs are that the greens will be very fast. Actually, getting to the greens can be a bit traumatic and I have never regarded any one hole as a Birdie opportunity. An awful lot of tidying up has been undertaken over the winter and the course looks very tidy. Once the rough starts to grow again and the fairways firm up after all the rain, the difficulty will increase exponentially. A friend of mine who plays off 7 has yet to record anything like a decent score after numerous attempts. If you want to have a round anytime PM and I'll book you in as a guest.

pth

open am-am on the 15th

PTH .... may take you up on that ... better make sure it's dark so i can't be seen hacking up their turf! ..... looks something like a Harry Colt course but in parkland rather than heath .... if so, and judging by its shortish length, almost certainly very subtle and not to be beaten to death ..... East Course at "posh" club is rather like that, with only one par 5

just played today at bendinat in Mallorca - in the rain, what a joke. Hopefully the weather improves soon.

G D , have you played son vida , puntiro or alcanada ?

no, i play at Camp De Mar and Bendinat in Mallorca - never neard of those (I go to mainland spain very rarely though)

All three in mallorca .

where abouts? we stay in Andratx/Camp de Mar during the summer but am staying with friends in the port at the moment. Have rarely visited anywhere on the other side of the island. Are you familiar with those courses then?
