Anybody play it? Recently picked it up and slowly getting better. Decided to start paying around £100 a month for lessons, the bulk package i'm buyying is £180 for 4 x 1 hour lessons and 90 minute teaching while playing on a course.

Started with some Callaway big berthas from the 90s which are OK but the driver compared to todays standards is like a 3 wood so recently bought a Callaway M6 which i'm slicing the **** out of my balls

A video of my crap driver swing.

Yes.
I used to play religiously much more rarely these days. I got to a decent standard 4.6 HCAP. Swing looks solid, remember it’s what works for you. Keep grinding pal.

I haven't for years now as time is limited with a little one, but I used to frequent local ranges and courses with mates. Great day out doing a full 18 if you sneak some bears onto the range!

Any of you old golfers, selling your old clubs? I'm using a free set that was given to me. 1994 Callaway Big Bertha's. Recently upgraded my driver to an M6 and now looking to upgrade my irons/wedges.

Great choice with the M6. Stick with the Taylor Made M series clubs if you can afford to. I've found them to be the best I've personally used.

I'm sure it's amazing and I know it is but in my hands...Well..Lets just say I slice the crap out of it. It looks awesome though. Yeah i'm ideally going to buy the m6 iron set or M4.

Do you have a club pro at the place you play that you could get a few private lessons with? Certainly does help for sure :)

I'm having lessons with a pro else where as the prices are a tad better. £180 for 4 x 1 hour lessons and then a 90 minute playing lesson. I'm improving thanks to him slowly but surely. It's a very expensive hobby lol
