10 favourites to go down @5/1, those with shorter odds are- Wycombe Stockport County Tranmere Exeter Yeovil Leyton Orient Carlisle Hartlepool Walsall 29/1 for promotion, only Exeter, Leyton Orient, Stockport County, Yeovil Tranmere and Wycombe have longer odds. Lambert 9/1 to be league top scorer behind Rhodes of Huddersfield and Beckford of Leeds

DJ Campbell would be ideal IMO

Nice mate! Well if and when u move to hedge end, drop me a PM and ill get my mate to hook us up a round at the county, open to SOB as well if he fancies it

Nor was i. I was a member there, had a few lessons with Butcher then decided to go to Stoneham and with a bloke called Andy Gordon, who now is head pro at the Sot'on muni as far as i am aware and teaches Hampshire Youth (was asst at Stoneham) as recommended by my uncle (member at S'ham) and went from 12 to 7 handicap in 8 months and changed my shape from cut to draw. That sounds like an expensive lesson mate....playing any events out there as well?

Quoted from? He would be ideal, but a tad hopeful maybe!?

I know the general area...

Possibly next road along then.....Oak Tree something? Past Burger King?

Yeah Butcher is the pro up there, used to have lessons with him, he likes to get his big wooden stakes out and beat you with them til your set-up is right! Sam Hutsby being a student of his as well, hampshire's next big thing on the tour apparently....not that Richard Bland ever was! The development plans look very interesting, have seen them and am assured it is all still going ahead. 9holes into 18holes, including water hazards and some much longer holes than at present. I am about to buy a flat in that development if its the one i think you mean. How odd.... Botley is a nice layout, busy at times though as the hotel spits guests onto the course, same with Meon Valley as well. Stoneham is a nicer course IMO Chilworth is nice SOB, had some lessons up there a while back and played it once a few years back. Fairly open iirc? I was last a member at Alresford, love that course. Not massively long but still challenging and being tree-lined if your not on song, then u dont score well. Greens are some of the best i have played as well. Before that was at the county for 5yrs, but as a junior i played a load of the junior opens at different courses, £25 for 36holes + lunch at places like Stoneham, Bramshaw, Liphook, Blackmoor (gorgeous) Alresford and Waterlooville to name a few was excellent VFM looking back.

Well, i live in Hedge End mate! Stoneham is probably one of the best local courses about. Very nice. Royal Winchester is meant to be nice as well but not played it before. Cant think of many practise facilities at Stoneham, think they have a bay or 2 with a putting and chipping green but not much more. Botley Park has a decent (and fairly quiet) range and chipping and putting green. Maybe worth a look. I know a few people up at the county golf club (one of my best mates asst Pro), next to the Rose Bowl. It is about to be redeveloped, currently not the best course but it has a practise range, chipping and putting etc, and 2mins from hedge end.

Really? Only paid £22 for it brand new! Among thieves will be my birthday present, 24 and still getting games from the rents as a present!

I would have to kill! Yeah that's the one, nice track actually, one of my top 10 in Hampshire. Played in the beating down rain and gales early last year, solid 85....

Crippled golfer? Still on crutches golfer? Not played since November when i shot 75 round Hockley in the company of a former Saints legend..........

Nope. Gary McSheffrey still at Brum fo'sure

+8 i hope? Having not played for the best part of a year, and with a gammy f'ing knee i would need to play off 21. Injury triples your handicap right?

trotting out the nearly didn't have a club line is very tiresome (yeah yeah as am i, ill add before someone else does...) I think the OP has had 1 too many in the Cuckoo/Poacher/Lamb..........

Querying...

heard vokes was off to Coventry?

gets games at Brum in the prem though! MAYBE if we were in the champs, not rock bottom of L1 he would be tempted

That lad swindon got on loan from Bolton looked useful. Tobe Konajajaueofijidi or similar
