The things golfers say

June 5, 2025 4:56 pm Published by Comments Off on The things golfers say

I have always said that if I was to write a golf book (unlikely though that is), it would have nothing to do with golf swing technique. There are already enough of those kinds of books out there to sink a battleship. No, mine would be “The Things That All New Golfers Say” Over the last 43 years I have... View Article

The Rory Effect

Welcome to the Rory effect

April 15, 2025 3:23 pm Published by Comments Off on Welcome to the Rory effect

Best Masters since the 80’s. At least that is my opinion. As I am quite long in the golfing tooth, I remember the halcyon days of the 80’s when Faldo, Ballesteros, Langer, Lyle and Woosnam made the hallowed turf of the Augusta National Golf Club their own. Each of them won in spectacular ways; in play offs, with incredible bunker... View Article


Golf coaching in groups

Group coaching to improve your game

April 14, 2025 6:49 am Published by Comments Off on Group coaching to improve your game

Best courses to play in the wet season

March 10, 2025 9:46 am Published by Comments Off on Best courses to play in the wet season

It is amazing how different golf courses, even just a few miles apart, are to play in the wetter season. There is little pleasure in scraping mud off your trolley and having the wheels looking like one of those monster trucks after half a dozen holes. Neverthless, it is becoming more and more a part of winter golf. The courses... View Article

A different way to assess your round

February 1, 2025 7:21 am Published by Comments Off on A different way to assess your round

The most reliable marker of how you played a game of golf will always be the ultimate score you shot. But sometimes it can be fun and a little more flattering to use other KPI’s of success or failure. One that I like to reflect on is: what was the shortest iron that I missed the green with? Like most... View Article
