paullawrie Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Would you ever consider twa putters in the bag? A big 'un for using within 15 feet and a conventional putter for longer ones. Nice to see Sandy Lyle make the final round. i dont think so but i think i will need to try the belly soon , yeah nice to see sandy make cut . nice guy Link to comment
swifty Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 i dont think so but i think i will need to try the belly soon , yeah nice to see sandy make cut . nice guy Was surprised to see Mickleson revert to the belly putter. More and more players seem to be changing to it though. All the best this week in Madrid. Link to comment

s1dnk Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Well I used a rental Powakaddy the other week and I have to say I was a lot fresher come the last few holes than I usually would be after carrying my clubs. I'm going to get one but I'm trying to determine how good Powakaddy's actually are when compared to other, cheaper brands. Are you paying for the name and the parts are all the same or are Powakaddy's engineered in such a way that they really are the dogs danglies? You can pick up a remote controlled electric trolley for under Link to comment

It's the Honda of trollies, wont; break down like a Powakaddy, which itself is like the iphone, everyone seems to have one, but it's not really that good for the money. Link to comment

s1dnk Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 sorry about that... hope you had a good day we had our foundation boys and girls matchplay finals and a 9 team pro am for under 15s i thought course was good nickNo need to apologise, I was playing for free through the Port Erroll club at Cruden Bay so I couldn't complain. I think it was just where I was putting the ball that was a little soggy, there had been a bit of rain over the previous week. Looked like a good day out for the kids though, there seemed to be a lot of interest too which is good. Anyway, how did you find Cruden Bay when you stayed and played there? Link to comment

I had been tempted by the GoKart after EPK mentioned them, I like the look of them and they seem to be reliable based on reviews I have seen. I like the fact they are no fuss, it carries your clubs and that's it. Also they are under Link to comment

fatshaft Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Glorious day for it, so with an invite to Deeside in hand off I trotted tyvm Mr La-de-dah Gunner Graham. Havn't played the course since they made all the changes donkeys years ago. Undecided would be the verdict I think. No doubt overall it's a much better set up, with the nine now starting by the clubhouse, the driving range and good practice facilities, and a stunning view from the clubhouse. Link to comment

Sandafc Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Great performance from Sergio Garcia to win his own tournament... Glad hes back where he belongs. Link to comment
paullawrie Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 And not forgetting a great performance from Richie. Very good week for Ritchie , should be guaranteed race to Dubai now. Great stuff Link to comment

Kicked the bin near the recorders area , Woman collecting the caddie bibs shat herself , very poor but just 3 putted two of last three greens. Link to comment
Dandie1992 Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Some more exceptional play from the Ram of late. I enjoy watching his swing and technique more than any other golfer, seems to have such a decent rhythm to him. It always seems so easy. P.S Anyone see Jeff Overtons performance yesterday at KL? He shot a course record 62. He was playing superb. Overton plays with Mizuno blade irons like myself. If your swing gets in the zone, those things will take apart a course. Link to comment

s1dnk Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Sergio wins twice on the bounce, just think how he could take courses apart by swinging that well with Mizunos The BBC article on the same tournament says Ramsey SHANKED it from one of the par 3s, deary me Link to comment

Horrible shot.. Was a bit unlucky to lose his ball as they were looking in the wrong spot and a spectator found it ten seconds after the five minutes were up, but probably cost him one shot at most as was miles right. Great win from Sergio glad hes back. Link to comment
