Topic: Golf Equipment / Lind Golf

Am I just being petty or is this a genuine gripe. Opinion would be appreciated.

Bought Lind clubs earlier back in the year and since then Lind have been selling them for nearly half of what i paid for them and now they come with better shafts as well. Wishing i held off another 6 months now.

Topic: Sports Talk / Barry Hall - where to from here?

Reading the papers today. Wakelin had an interview about his time with Hall at St Kilda. He was sporting a black eye. His quote was something like “lucky my reflexes were sharp or it could of been another Staker incident”. Attempted or not Halls style of footy belongs back in the 70s

Topic: Sports Talk / barry hall brendan fevola trade?

Carlton would never be stupid enough to do that. Sure Fev has his few problems off the field but is alot younger than Hall and regularly kicks alot more goals than him. Hall also plays centre half forward not full forward Gribbles

haha he is a dirty lil gringo. At least now he is going to stop waisting his time rather than wasting it. Seems ironic that someone spruiking the values of an education can not even grasp simple grammar. Maybe he should use his “enciclopedia” and look up F*&K OFF!!!

Topic: Ask Golf Guru - Golf Instruction / Golf instruction recommendations

Hello all,

I would just like to start by giving some insight into my golfing background. I am now 25 and wanting to get serious about learning how to play this game properly. I used to play weekly as a junior (15-17) and had a few group lessons. Although this got my handicap down from 30 odd to about 25 I found the pro was more interested in the younger kids than me. Since then I have played once every 3-6 months enjoying the occasional social hit

Anywho after all that my question is, as I am on a limited budget, I was hoping to pick up some pointers from videos rather than fork out for a pro. Can anyone recommend good golf videos or clips on youtube that would be of a help to someone who wants to get the fundamentals under control.

What do changeable weights do in a putter? I understand they help change ball flight in woods but how do they affect a putter?

Topic: Golf Talk / Any clubs offer student membership?

Found a great intermediate membership at Tweed Heads-Coolangatta, which actually has 2 18 hole courses, all keen to ring the club about it and then notice it says female members only. OUCH. Next male memberships are over $300 more. Talk about discrimination.

Topic: Golf Equipment / Good putters?

I am probably looking at spending $100 max. I do prefer a blade but if the mallet is simple and not too extravegant i can live with it. I do like the look of Yes! putters but they seem to be out of my price range. Ill check out the ping ansers. Any other suggestions?

Topic: Golf Talk / Any clubs offer student membership?

Would love to join a club as a member but most full memberships here on the gold coast are just out of my budget? I know alot of clubs do junior memberships. Does anyone know of any clubs giving discounts to uni students? We are in a limbo too old for junior to poor for full.

Topic: Golf Equipment / Good putters?

Thinking of upgrading my putter as it is rather old and has seen better days. An old tommy armour one. Anyone got any suggestions of what are good quality putters out on the market nowadays? Prob looking to pick up a bargain/second hand one from ebay. Do putters have fake copies to look out for too?
