*2010 Golf Thread**

5th February 2010, 12:44 AM

The deep freeze looks to be coming to an end so time to get the golf clubs out and get out and about on the range and course.

Not sure how many golf fanatics get on the SMB but if cycling can have its own thread then why not us!?

So fellow golfers, make yourself known and feel free to post on any golf related topics e.g. what's in your golf bag, intended purchases, golf courses you've played or want to play, tips and tricks and any other golf related stuff.

Cheers.

Cycling is an athletes activity. Golf is for girls and Apple users.

Cue the Tiger Woods jokes.

Play on courses around Hanoi, off to play a few rounds in Pattaya end of the month.

Taylor Made Burner Irons & Woods.

Use to do cycling when younger, golf more leisurely these days.

Just started and played 1 round last year, shot errr lets not go there

I managed one par though

Will be looking to get out once week when the decent weather comes along

Maybe we could organise a SMB Golf day for sometime in the year?

Howay, what did you shoot?

Still not got my lazy arse out this year although the weather has been a shocker. Had some email chatter with the lads about an long golf weekend in September. Potential venues mooted are the usual; Marbella, Algarve etc but also Majorca!?

Anyone played golf in Majorca?

Even pondering jacking my season ticket for a golf membership this year (I've said that every year for the last 4 like)
