  Hi All'

  Joined about a month ago and thoroughly enjoying playing the game.

  I've never played "real" golf but always enjoyed watching, so although this isn't the real thing, I'm having great fun trying to get my ranking down and learning the courses.

  My biggest problem is putting - I can't remember how many times I've come up within 12 inches short from all distances. I've improved my driver and putter and I can see the benefits but at the end of the day I think the answer is practice, practice and more practice!!

  All the best to all players

  Although you won't believe this now, there will be a day when you start sinking all those putts, put in a really good score, tier up and it all starts again.

  Good luck
