  1. Cut to 1 and playing the old course for the first time in a couple of weeks. Would only do it if it's a freebie as it's a fucking goat track. Just ticking a box are you. I know nobody will believe me but roon yiz anyway. Not even looking forward to it cause it blows.
  2. Inverness winning the league cup is bigger than this I told you international football dwarfs all club football and when we finally got some success you'd see it. Nothing in club football could ever touch this. The entire country is bouncing right now. There's nothing like it. Well done lads x
  3. We both know that's not true champ. If it wasn't for me you'd still be hacking it round St Michaels and thinking it's a good course. You're welcome though, always glad to enlighten less knowledgeable and experienced players.
  4. Oooh what gave you that idea? Wee bit better than St Michaels eh. I have lots more suggestions as it happens. If you don't act like a w**k I'll give you some more recommendations. Glad you enjoyed it.
  5. Depends on a lot of things. How much money do you have/want to spend How seriously are you going to take it How old are you What type of golfer are you What do you have now from twenty years ago You can buy second hand stuff way cheaper and if you know a bit which you probably do can roughly guess what you want. Fitting is massive now and wasn't back then so that's the big difference. How tall are you? If you're average height that will help. You can also get fitted and they can tell you what's best for you and you can just look for that sort of stuff second hand (meaning loft/lie, shaft weight and stiffness) I would suggest anything you have that is not steel shaft you should probably replace as graphite degrades over time. So probably driver, 3 wood and maybe rescue/hybrid or 5 wood. Sidenote rescues were in their infancy then. Maybe you used long irons. Rescues are brilliant. Stick it in the middle of your stance like it's a 6 iron and smash it, easier to hit than a 9 iron. Also wedges are all the rage now, not so back then. I would guess you have something like a set of ping zing or something like that. They're still class and have the wedges covered for you generally. If you have something else you might want to look at a wedge or two. So a lot to think about and lots of options. Basically largely dependent on how much money you want to spend and how seriously you want to take it. The second hand market is brilliant and the internet makes buying golf stuff amazing compared to twenty years ago. So don't rush in have a wee look round and a wee think about it and shop smart you can get a lot of great stuff for not too much these days. Out of interest what do you have? I've got a feeling ping zing/eye2 or Mizuno t-zoid. It would be interesting if you did a what's in the bag. Also balls go online you get dog walkers etc who will sell you a hundred pro V's for eighty quid or something. Great deals can be found for everything.
  6. Actually the biggest ones are in the stands self evidently. Yous got what you wanted, what are you unhappy about?
  7. Aye one cup in 28 years and you hounded the manager that got it out of the club. That was smart eh.
  8. You absolute wallopers. Ach well maybe Bielsa will be interested eh. Clowns.
  9. Very overrated and a bit of a w****r imo. Also claims to have never made a triple bogey. Bullshit. Tiger Woods has made triple bogeys. Give me his bag I'll get him a couple no problem. I've seen him hit a ball on YouTube and his swing isnae that great like. Not shite but not particularly impressive.
  10. And if you ever see Miura irons on eBay or somewhere like that for say two hundred quid buy the f**k out of them. This happens more than you would imagine, as sometimes people come across say from a dead family member them and don't know what they have. They're very niche because of the price so people assume they're shit cause they haven't heard of them and punt them cheap. They're not shit. Miura have never made a set of irons that aren't brilliant. Mizuno is basically poor man's Miura. For most of us Mizuno are the best irons you can get. This happens less often these days but still happens. A friend of mine has made a lot of money doing this over the years. You can buy a set for £150 off eBay and sell them for £1200 or something. Always worth a wee scan.
  11. Honma tend to be expensive, decorative and standard shafts are usually very light. This will increase clubhead speed for a lot of golfers. What did you get, what shafts are in them and did you have to take out a mortgage? Some Honma sets in days gone by could be ten grand. Gold plated and shit. I'm guessing there's gold involved somewhere. They love that shit. All Japanese clubs are very high quality basically. If anyone wants a wee peruse look up Miura. They're the best irons ever made. All hand forged, you just get the heads and have to get shafts put in them yourself. When Tiger played Nike the rumour, almost certainly true, was always that they weren't actually Nike they were Miura with Nike markings added. Typical set of irons would be something like seven grand.
  12. Omg shut up. Three months. That's the bet. Cause I want you to shut up.
  13. You know Messi's pointing to the air goal celebration that's become iconic, now ripped off by what's the wee cnt at Man City Foden that's him. Well anyway Messi once did that right in front of where we were sitting. 15-20 yards away, and sometimes I think damn that would have been a brilliant picture. With zoom it would have looked amazing. But really I'm glad I just watched it instead.
  14. Not for me. He's the best passer of a ball they have but an absolute liability off the ball. These ratings are actually a very good guide cause thousands of people vote in them so the idiots get averaged out. I didn't see anything yesterday to make me think he's improving on the issues he has. He did grow in confidence throughout the game and hadn't played 90 minutes for about nine months so that will have been good for his fitness but those were the only real positives.
