Golfers Club Spike Wrench

Advantages: Challenging but accessible course for mid handicappers
Disadvantages: Not hard enough for better players and not the best course in the area

...Chelsfield Lakes Golf Club 'A good walk spoiled' is how one man once described golf but he was obviously a fool as there are few better ways to pass the time than by playing this most majestic of sports. In my part of the world we are spoilt for choice when it comes to courses and there are ones to suit all standards and pockets. Chelsfield Lakes is a pleasant pay and play course that will satisfy most golfers from beginners to good players. Very low handicappers may not find it enough of a challenge but for us mere mortals it has more than enough to keep us interested without ruining our confidence. The lakes of the title is bit misleading as there are only two on the course. One is far to the left of the 16th and doesn't come into play but the other is large and runs between the 9th and 18th fairways and most definitely comes... Read review

Advantages: Hits the golf ball a long way.
Disadvantages: You're never sure what direction it will hit the ball

...'s all gobbledygook and golf speak, and actually means very little.) The new laws meant that many drivers that were already in use would become illegal when they were used in competition. The new regulations came into force almost immediately for professional golfers, but the amateurs and hackers were given a dispensation until the 1st January 2008. What this meant for me was that the driver I had been using very successfully for the past three years or so, the TaylorMade R540, was to become illegal as and from the start of 2008! So from about March 2007 I embarked on a frantic search to find another driver that would give me the same distance off the tee and the same consistency of hit as my old tired and tested TaylorMade. This was to prove a very expensive and ultimately fruitless search. (Good quality golf clubs don't come cheap... Read review

Advantages: Easy to hit,easy to keep straight
Disadvantages: Not long hitters

...I first started playing golf when I was 10 years old but was forced to take a 20+ break due a back problem only returning to regular play two years ago. I decided to pretty much start from scratch and took my time choosing a set of irons best suited to my 'back to basics' plan. I picked Taylor Made burners because they have the largest legal club face and a very forgiving play action. I also picked steel shafts as once again they are easier to hit. 'Taylor Made' clubs are always well made and these are forged (not cast) with a hollow cut back giving a reasonable deep cut into the ball. The original Burners were a little light but the XD's have more wieght and a better feel in the swing. I think these clubs are perfect for serious new golfer looking to improve his game from a handicap above 20 down to about 16 over a period... Read review
