My manners are impeccable. Your club has set out the rules. Email them if you're not happy. Incidentally i had a stroll through the local park again tonight and only saw one man and his dog. Even the cycle path wasn't crammed with people disregarding social distancing. Golfers should be...

I have Ping Glide 3.0 and think they're an improvement on the 2.0, very good. Of course you'll soon have the "buttery soft" idiots coming along soon to dismiss "cast" clubs.

I've not seen anyone cram into a park yet. Your attitude is typical of the selfish golfer image that is portrayed in the press and wider community. Take it up with your club if you're unhappy. Bleating about it on a two bob forum won't win any prizes or change anything.

This year will be all about compromises.

Well hopefully Mrs Cannon doesn't come blundering in and make another disaster.

Again thats not what I'm asking. I was asking how strictly it is being enforced/adhered to. I know what has been said in Ireland and I know what our First Minister has said. I am more interested in whether clubs are cancelling bookings or stopping members booking tee times etc. Or is a blind...

Our BRS booking is currently closed. It will reopen when they have decided what they are doing re starting back up etc.

If SG say it should be adhered to then yes I can see golf clubs adhering to it. That would be a severe kick in the stones! Hopefully clarification will follow. Can any of the Irish on here comment on how their clubs are doing this, is it being "enforced" is a blind eye being turned? After all...

I'm not arguing what was said by our First Minister, what I am saying is that all the guidance I've seen coming from Golf Unions mention the 5 mile radius. If your golf club choose to enforce that and monitor their booking system i will be screwed. As will thousands of others. If your club...

Also our club is rather unique and I would suggest that under 15% of the membership will stay within 5 miles and I think that is being generous, could be as low as 5%.

I read it and its clear as mud. I'll wait till after the first few days before I consider hitting a ball. I've not played since mid March anyway and still got no real inclination to go and play either. I will let all the golf "junkies" (which I used to be one of) get their fix first then try a...

No 18 miles away.

Yeah I've got to be honest I would rather still be in lockdown than be told - you are now allowed to golf but sadly you don't meet the criteria to play golf as you live out with THE five mile radius.

As i said what will be will be. I finish up on June 1st for 3 weeks. Could be perfect timing. I better crack on with my garden "make over" in case i get the urge to hit a wee whit baw about in the next week or two....

More timber. Lining my flower beds and a path.
