Just discovered this. Started playing golf at the Met in 1976. Then CCC for years after that. Clovelly is a magnificent course but even better when the South Easter is roaring. I remember the trees on the fairways growing at 45 degrees because of that! Miss that course.

Why you in such a hurry all the time, EAL? You've got that Sponsor $ behind you yet you're running around from course-to-course on some huge time restraint or as if United are booking the next available ticket out of the place. Kick back and stay a little longer! Play a full 18 once and awhile. Maybe you should be knocking on Netflix's door ;-)

Don't be in a hurry to leave South Africa EAL - I know stupidly rich people who've played just about every noteworthy, 5 star course on the planet, and they rate the courses along the Eastern Cape in S.A. as some of the best in the world. I've played those courses myself - they're the best tacks I've been fortunate enough to experience.

not in south Africa. We are very open about race and our differences. Speak of color I'm itself is not offensive. There are extremely offensive words for each race group. But you will get asked to indicate you race when you open a bank account, take out a line, apply for a job. It's how SA tracks how it is transforming.

Really? Maybe you should play affordable courses like public muni's. Around where I am you can play for $22 midweek and $25 weekends walking 9 holes. You can also get used clubs. I know a guy who bought a full set with bag for $10 at a yard sale. I also go to the park and shag balls to avoid paying for balls at the range. Where there's a will there's a way.
@lsan6833 Жыл бұрын
@@romewasnotbuiltinaday There is no course within walking distance then and now, that I could ever get near 22$. And the fact you think that 22$ is affordable is my whole point. We can play 10 games of little league with 60$. Golf is for upper class.
