Dare I ask a question???

Posted by: user277622 | Mon 7th Dec 2009 22:43 | Last Reply

Firstly I would like to introduce myself and then pose the question. I have been playing golf for twenty odd years and I am a qulified coach. I actually teach local people for free, I know this sounds mad but I love the game so much and just want to give back. I do actually only teach 8 people but thats my choice. If I can be of help please just ask. I have just been told I need a hip replacement so thats not good, but we will not dwell on any negatives, so here's the question;

Why hasn't the overall average handicap changed in the last 50 ish years!!!

We now have titanium heads, graffite shafts, better balls (excuse me) and video to review our swings yet the average handicap is still just about 20??

Any views I would be interested

Cheers

Paul

Better clubs better balls etc but ya can't buy a game.......

Good coach, hard graft, and some natural ability helps more than the equipment.

But yes, good gear will help to a point..

Say's he off 22 but hey I am diabetic.........
