Forum: General Golf Talk

I am a female golfer and looking to get out and play more. The only time I can is if I join a golf tournament. If anyone knows of any upcoming golf tournaments, could you please forward the information to me. Thanks tremmeer20002@sympatico.ca

With the new site, i can't find the way to put pictures. Any help would be appreciate?

I tried to upload pictures on a post and when comes the time to upload the picture(s) it's not working. The arrow that goes round and round don't wanna stop turning without uploading. I've done the usual process. Any help ?

What's up with the junior age at almost all courses in the area. I was just looking at a local golf courses' website and they have junior rates. Great, I thought to myself, since I am the one paying for my junior, this saves me a few bucks if we are going together! I scroll down and look at the...

I thought I'd share an interesting story… Last week I had a round booked at Stonebrige. The night before, I was doing dishes and sliced a pretty deep gash on the left side of my hand. It was two inches long, right along my pinky knuckle and the inside of my palm. I should've gotten stitches...

:-) I thought I would post this as we did this last night for our weekly Mens Night. Something different and it was actually quite fun. Everyone will use only 3 clubs plus a putter. Take a deck of cards, cut it 3 times. You can use either the top or bottom card of each cut pile to decide which...

well, I never though it would happen again but I shot a 74 today, 36-38 (par 71 36-35 ) at Grey Silo in Waterloo to tie my PB (I'm a 12.5 index). If anyone hasn't played this track before, it's basically similar to Stonebridge, with less tricked up greens though longer (from the 2nd to back tees...

None for a million years, now two in a row. Same hole, but this time it was an honest "on in two make the putt" eagle :). Of course the hole is 470 and was downwind (5th at Champlain), so basically just a long par 4. I tried to tag it off the tee, lost it in the clouds and was sure it went...

Hey gang, So I just recently got fit and overhauled most of my gear. I'm definitely hitting longer than I was before as contact and ball flight are completely different. I was wondering how most of you learn your distances? I had come to know my old set pretty well over the course of time but I...

For the past few weeks I have noticed that the Forum does not display correctly on NS Edge. It works on Chrome and on Safari (mobile). Any ideas? I am assuming it is actually a me problem and not a forum issue.

Man. Mike loves to torture us. He was so close and burned 5 edges yesterday. More pressure on Phil if Mike would have made them and maybe we would have had an amazing finish. Mike showed some good drive yesterday, nice to see again. I was impressed to see how disappointed he was that the ball...

I have been having real problems with my membership this year and would like some imput to know if I'm being unreasonable. To me a full membership implies that I should be able to golf pretty much anytime I want (within reason -- i understand that the course will have some tournaments and that tee...

The good news is that I've won the lottery and have grounds passes for the 104th US Open at Shinne**** Hills. Now the fun starts...trying to plan for the week long festivities. I've never been to a PGA event and would appreciate some feedback from those of you that have. Do's and don'ts advice...

Hey anyone here have Real World Golf for PS2? I have been playing it for the last little while and it has helped my swing quite a bit! Now if only my real score was as good as my virtual score... :lmfao

I'm playing Potsdam this Friday & have never been there. If anyone who has played this course & can provide tips or comparisons to other courses it would be greatly appreciated.

Just wanted to share this with everyone as I suspect we have have this moment when it comes to our golf swing. Anyway, I have been playing the game for about 7 years now. Usually, playing only about 3-4 full rounds and 10 9 hole rounds per year. I love playing though but have been struggling with...

Makes the game a lot easier. Went out with the fellow teachers for the annual end of the year 9-Hole Best Ball. I was hot with the driver and ended up hitting 8 out of 9 fairways and averaged about 230 - 250 a pop (which is very good for me). The only fairway I missed was about two or three...

9 rounds played so far this year, (I know, pretty sad) dropped my handicap a full 2 points. From 14.8 to 12.8! Wohoo. I may actually get below 10 this year, and that was my goal for last year!

I'm #1. Come and get me boys!

Hi, I have a question regarding RM. I was considering getting one of the prepaid game packages (either 10 or 5) with a couple friends, but they're concerned they can't commit enough to play the number of rounds. Are unused rounds transferrable to the next year? Thanks

I'm visiting my Mom in the London area over the weekend and I have a tee time for Friday morning but I prefer to play with someone rather than alone. Does anyone know if there is a "London Golf Forum" or some other internet resource that I can use to find someone to share my round with on Friday...

Sitting in my hammock outside on a nice beautiful day, gf is out till 8pm, golf is on my mind and less than 1 km away. All I gotta do is get dressed and go play. but I dont feel like moving... Something wrong with me or what? For the record, I played 9 holes every day this week and have 18...

I like it. They've got the new toy that they take all over the course now and are showing everything they can in super slo-mo. They just showed Sabbatini coming out of the bunker and a long putt from Tiger and the picture was awesome. On Sabbatini's shot you could see the club head hitting...

Quick question. I've just signed up with golf cnaada to get a valid handicap. Do I have to enter all of my historical scores, or do i only need to enter the last 20? My understanding is that only the 20 most recent ones are counted for handicapping purposes, so I can save myself a lot of time...

Gotta share this. This morning I made a 40 yard uphill chip-in for a birdie. Felt great! :-)

Ok... So it's unlikely anything will ever top the improbable round I had at Equinelle in June, but today's round was pretty memorable. jvincent joined me at Manderley. We played the Central and then North nines. After making a couple of pars by holing a couple of ~4 footers at #1 and #2 we...

Did you set your alarm for 4:30am to catch the coverage?

a couple weeks ago my g/f ask me to make some trophy bases for the golf tourney she organized for the local veterans club. one of the old birds glued together some golf balls,painted and decorated them which i had to attach to the bases i made. anyways, as i was pre-drilling holes in one of...

Check out this link, mark your calendars, I think this will be a better show than Train 48 :) http://www.pgatour.com/story/7133418

I'll be taking a weekend trip sometime this summer and was wondering if anyone has any recomendations. I've been doing some searching, but sometimes that doesn't show everything available. Any ideas?

Jarred it with a 60-70 yard SW from the next fairway over. Looked up and down, was looking behind the green when the guy I was playing with goes "it's in the hole" lol. I've had a few putts at it, but the old adage "the first one's a chip in" more or less came true. I made a naturla eagle...

Is there anybody else on here who finds the wait for a new club or other golf related purchase to be excruciating. My Scotty is in the mail...should get here this week if Canada Post doesn't screw it up...and it's killing me.:hissyfit: All I want to do is to take a few puts on my fake putting...

I just traded jeany1 a nickent driver for a 3w... and now have purchased the driver back and its not even been a week I traded someone a bag of balls for a putter and then turned around and traded the putter for a bag of balls.. I sold wedges for $150, used the money to put a driver......

if one wanted to start getting serious about golf.. joing the CJGA and start playing in those tournaments would that be good or no?? or is it highly over rated??.. and since im 21 years old.. is all hope of going semi-pro shot out the door?? adam

Thinking about ordering a few dozen PRO V1X second quality from these guys. The prices seem great, anyone have any experience with the company?

Does anyone know if an amateur ine a pro am event wins, does the golfer get the purse?

Cannot find the instructions for leaving feedback on a purchase. Can someone point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance

:-) first round of the year....how did everyone do? Me ..even par through 11 holes....One birdie, one bogey, nine pars.....I'll take that....:-) only played 11 holes anyway....

I just can't get enough of this shot. I must've watched it 150 times since I saw it live. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-740084892738160457 It's a truly amazing shot with all the surrounding circumstances. The ball had to be hit with great accuracy due to the fact it lied flush...

thought this might make interesting reading....especially after all the recent threads concerning people having balls hit near them and what do do in such situations. http://uk.news.yahoo.com/5/20090605/tuk-golf-rage-man-faces-jail-for-club-at-45dbed5.html
