lofu2 Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Golf is a great game. I love it so much that I play a lot of it whenever I am on the course. Why just hit it straight and long? It is much more interesting to hit into the rough, feed the lake, hit the beach, bounce off trees, etc. Putting? Well why not 3-4 putt each green ? That way you get to play more golf without paying for another round High handicapper, Lofu2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutch Posted April 6, 2004 Author Share Posted April 6, 2004 If you also make a lot of practice swings before hitting the ball, I suppose your game can last for a day If you are ahead of me, can you please let me pass? I still try to improve,without becoming too serious about it. However there is a rule for "slow play". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our home base is in Nakhon Ratchasima I'm not ready to play just yet, but I'll be playing in your area quite frequently in about ten years!! My wife is from the Korat area, and we have built a house near Pakchong. Lot's of nice golf courses nearby. I've run across items on expat golf groups in Chaing Mai, Pataya, and Bangkok areas, but nothing around Khoa Yai area. Maybe I'll have to start one!
