I won a place in the proam a Slaley Hall in the European Seniors Championship thru golfmagic on line magazine. This is the scenic 18th hole. Nick Job was our wonderful pro, fantastic guy - a day to remember forever.
Played Disney Course with 3 Gentlemen from Korea,only English words spoken were Ha Good Shot , Bogey and Double Bogey!
All 3 were called Kim as well!
Even the Carts at Disney have a sense of humour. The golf courses are far from Mickey Mouse

Got a problem here. playing 18th hole at Portal and just played out of greenside bunker,so my 3rd shot.Caught it thin and finished here, back of the green near a waterfall. No shot and is it a free drop. Didn't think so played it back handed. Great finish to the round , made an easy 7 !
Golf competition in Knysna, South Africa on Halloween last year. (London - Johannesburg flight) We didn't win the most points, but were voted best dressed! Even our carts had pirate flags and stuffed parrots on them. The other players loved that we left gold coins (chocolates covered in gold foil) scattered around on all the tees and greens.
Here is a picture of me teeing off at the famous 16th (The best golf hole in the world) at Cypress Point. I hit it to 10 feet.
My Hole in 1 photo opportunity on January 29th 2011.Just my luck to get my first ever Hole in One a month before the 8th Season of Virgin Swingers started. Could have won the Volvo prize. Keep swinging and try again!

The 18th hole at Golf Club of California while watching the sun rise and waiting for frost delay to end on New Year's Eve.
This was taken at the Pan Pacific Nirwana resort in Bali, Indonesia. Hole # 7 (Par 3, 214 yards) overlooks the legendary Tanah Lot (Land in the Sea) Temple, which is only accessible during low tides. Gorgeous scenery, great weather, beautiful country and people.
view from behind the 6th green looking up towards the tee, the course is the northwest national in rainford, merseyside.
Anyone fancy a challenging hole then this one at Mirror lakes golf club in FT. Myers, Florida is long enough for any big hitter.

The photo was taken at Bali Hai Golf Club - Las Vegas. You can see the Strip from the course and the airport was fairly close!?
There were plenty of gags about taxi-ing to the first tee, what were the local rules for a Birdie strike, am I ok to hit and so on...

"Are we still on preferred lies?"
Simola golf course in George South Africa is one of 10 stunning courses in the area. This is the tee shot of the second hole
My friend got stuck with the buggy on the one fairway. He asked me to push him out. The result: Me ending up with very dirty pants, and him clearly amused
My Favourite course- in a beautiful natural environment.
Course built on the edge of 26 mile Coeur d'Alene Lake- Idaho US with this signature Island Green. A boat is manned as you are taken over to 'putt out'! The island green plays host to 2000 geraniums.

This is a photo of the 10th green (taken from the fairway)at The Legends Course at Orange Lakes Orlando.
You need a good drive to put yourself in wedge range going over the water for the shot to the green. On this Palmer designed course you have the option to also bail out with a shot the right, but going for the pin is what golf is all about.
She went on to break at least half of these rules............hawking golf balls being especially clever

Here's a picture of me hitting my drive on the 9th hole at Pebble Beach. A little foggy, but the view of the 8th hole behind me is fantastic!
About Steve Campbell - he has been golfing all over the world. So on his behalf I'd like to submit this photo of him with a story.
We played the Belfry a couple of years back and Steves drive made it to the spot on the 18th (shown in the photo) from which Christy O'Connor Jnr launched his famous 2 iron to the green to win his the Ryder cup match with Fred Couples.
Now Steve and I had a match going ourselves and he was one-up on me, so there was more to my encouraging words than might be apparent when I told him to go for it.
Suffice to say in True Tin-cup style he took out his 3 wood and launched his ball.... you guessed it, straight into the lake before the 18th green. What a pl..nker - I mean he's my Belfry golf hero.
Approach to 18 at Carnoustie after getting away with a poor tee shot!
Luckily I did not pull a Van de Velde and made a par after an up and down with a PW.
Funny photo - "If women ruled the world" Played at Eastham Lodge Golf Club this week where 200 ladies had taken over the clubhouse & the Gents loo became the ladies loo for the day taken with mobile phone not sure about quality.

I took this photo with my Nokia N73 phone. My friend in our regular four ball attempted this shot at 7h10 in the morning, Durbanville golf club, South Africa. This picture also appeared in our Club's newsletter, they thought it was quite funny. No, he didn't get the ball out. Regards. Tobie de Jonge.
On holiday, I played in a costumed golf outing as The Pope. I was hoping for a Divine Intervention which would result in a hole in one but it didn't happen.
My shadow on the frozen third green at Burnham and Berrow GC - a old links course. It was -8C when we started out and stayed below freezing for the whole round. Most unusual for Somerset!
