    I ordered Nov 6th Andrew and they emailed next day to say it would ship mid December, as its a special batch order. So same boat as you but should have it time for Christmas.

    Well done Nicolas, that’s great progress in 15 months. It’s good to have a handicap target but be careful not to let it affect your morale/enjoyment of the game. If you approach each round with the mindset of: I’m here to have fun, celebrate the good shots and learn from the bad ones, you’ll find you gradually improve in each area and find your level, whatever that might be.

    Hi, has anyone ordered fenix clothing delivered to Republic of Ireland, if so, were you hit with any extra charges for customs/vat?
    I take XL (EU) in ping and footjoy t-shirt, am I safe enough getting XL in fenix also?
    Thanks for advice

    Hi Paul, there’s a book called “Hooked” by Kevin Markham which gives decent ratings and insight on most courses in Ireland.

    If you’re looking at the east coast, I really enjoyed Killeen Castle and the Royal Curragh.

    County Sligo is a good balance for value and great courses, you could play strandhill, enniscrone, and rosses point (or donegal murvagh), all links but can be very nice around May if you get lucky with the weather.

    I’d second the Cleveland CBX4 Zipcore, very forgiving, I play 52 and 56.

    It’s amazing isn’t it Brian, he must just have excellent hand eye coordination, that and the shorter backswing with no sway/height change means the low point is so consistent. I love how he smacks the ground just ahead of the ball with the practice swing then goes straight into the real swing without delay, no time for overthinking or getting stuck over the ball. As others have said, it would be great if one of the pros could talk through it with Pat demonstrating.

    Great idea about a video explaining the elements people can take from Pats swing, been trying to get my uncle to copy it for ages.
