Hi Cathal

Thanks for the reply, there’s some really sound advice in there. I am definitely far too hard on myself, so a lot of that does make sense to me. I’ve stuck those books in my basket so should have some helpful reading material soon.
Really appreciate you talking the time to send such a detailed reply, thanks very much!

Hi Jonathan
Thanks for the recommendation. I’ve just joined a new club so it might be worth arranging a couple of lessons with the pro there and trying to get sorted. Thanks

[Rich Hardy]

Just had a look at those courses, there’s some really nice looking ones there!

[Rich Hardy]

I haven’t got round to watching any of the Golf Life vids yet, although I will definitely give a go I think

[Rich Hardy]

Hi Steve, that sounds like a good shout to me, I haven’t played either of those courses before so I’d definitely be up for that in the new year. Cheers.

Hi Ian,
That sounds good to me, I’d definitely be up for doing that in spring time. Oundle looks a really nice course, something to look forward to as the weather improves. Appreciate the offer.

Hi Glen

Sounds good to me, just let me know and we can go from there.

Cheers

At the moment, weather is definitely not our friend.
I do have a few days that I can be free for a round – Thursday 27th Nov, Thurs 4th Dec, Friday 12th Dec, Sunday 21st Dec – if any of these are good for you?

[Rich Hardy]

Hi Glen
Yes, I’m definitely up for that. I’m usually pretty flexible with dates and times, so we should definitely be able to sort something out.
Happy to put up with the Mrs also!

[Rich Hardy]

Thanks for the info, they do both look really nice courses

[Rich Hardy]

Just emailed you

15th would work for me. I’ve had a Quick Look at those courses and they both look like good options, happy with either to be honest

[Rich Hardy]

Hi Chris, yes I’d definitely be up for that mate. There should be a few courses halfway between us that would work.

[Rich Hardy]

Nice one Nicholas, well done for sticking at it and good that it’s all starting to come together for you.

I know exactly how it feels, I started playing 6 months ago and struggling to get my handicap down and shoot under 100 consistently.
