I'll be booking Tee times this afternoon for;

Me
Commie
Young MC
Tango
Ginge
Ratty

And provisionally for;

Mwciec and Blurred.

Is there anybody that I've missed and is there anybody else that would like to play?
I'll find out tomorrow whether I can make it. How late is the tee time you have booked Bruce?

Here's a useful link to show how simple a golf swing really is. It's just us humans that complicate it. :mrgreen:

Sorry youngmc, I saw it first. :mrgreen:

Amazing machine. They test all the new American clubs and balls on it. Named after Byron Nelson, the American pro who was supposed to have the most perfect swing in golf. Not sure if he's still alive, but I remember him, and he was a terrific golfer.

Got to agree. Never saw why Dean Martin worked so long with him. Martin was no comedien and Lewis was crap at both. That's Hollywood for ya. As for Jim Carey, he's a man out of work. About as funny as a root canal job :roll:

Despite having been told only last Friday that I couldn't book us on for 20th until yesterday, I duly rang only to then be informed that I'm not allowed to book us on until next Sunday. As such, Regeistration remains open until then. You definitely up for it Dr Hotdog?

Bradley Park over Huddersfield way is a fair test, not played there for about 10 years.

yeah, i'm gonna have to hit the driving range a couple of times by the trafford centre before this thing. i don't want to completely embarrass myself.

when i was at my peak ages about 16/17 my handicap at it's lowest was something like 18.4 (so 18). But i'm 22 now and played about 5 rounds since i was a member at Davyhulme.
