The Price to get better!
I would just like to get some feedback on what other golfers around the country think about the price of a bucket of balls at the range? Im paying £3.50 for 70 balls i just think its a rip off.

£5 100 at my local but they only get about 70 back as 30 or so clear the back fence

150 yard driving range, fancy that.
£7.50 100, bleeding rip off.

Take into consideration, Chris, that the driving range itself cost a lot of money to be set up and a lot of money to maintain, so I don't think that 5p a ball is that excessive.
If you feel that strongly about it then save all your old balls and go and practice at your club.

Obviously the practice has paid dividends for you though, Chris. Have you bumped into your fellow member and contributor to this forum, Kevin Hewitt. He is a fine player also and hits it a long way, as well as being a nice chap.

I have seen him hit every club, Chris, we played together at Donnington Grove, a powerful striker for sure.
