Got in an other 12 holes of golf this morning with three of my mates played not to bad to finish with a gross score of
55 for 11 over par, again I’m very impressed with how the ST200x driver is performing it continues to be a fairway finder.
the course conditions were excellent as was the weather bit cold to start with but after a couple of holes things started to warm up, due to the on going situation things have changed some what and we were observing government guide lines of no personal contact And keeping a safe distance apart.
As for the course equipment that’s all been removed there are no bunker rakes ball or equipment cleaning facilities the pins are still in use but you don’t have to remove or touch them now as there are spacers fitted round the base of them that only Allows the ball to drop about an inch in to the cup, the starters office is still open but the clubhouse and it’s facilities are closed..!

My club is carrying out similar precautions with all bookings, cards etc being done through the pro shop.. At the end of last week we were asked to remove all belongings and clubs from the locker rooms. The latest email today:-
The bar and catering operations are closed.
Access to the clubhouse is permitted
only for the use of the toilet and hand washing facilities. Members are not permitted to change shoes or continue to use their lockers during this time.
The golf course is open, rakes have been removed, hole cups have been modified and the toilets on the course are closed.
Access to the pro shop is allowed but only a maximum of 2 customers at a time to be in the shop.
Looking at the NE/NW PGA website, as of the 19th, they are continuing with their Pro and Pro/Am events for the time being.

Very surprised at this and have noticed that it is similar in other regions.
I really can't be bothered to play.
