I have been away from TST.com for a while but now returning and have a suggestion for the established members. If TST has discounts to certain golf shops (I see Edwin Watts is a sponsor for 2007) it would be nice to offer these same discounts as addition privileges for established members.

You start with a rep of 10, so unless you got NEGATIVE reputation, you should qualify.

So yes, you must meet all three criteria.

Three times now I have logged in, then typed a reply to a thread & then been informed that I do not have permission to post a reply because I am not logged on. on other occasions I have posted replies on the same thread with no problems. This is very annoying if the reply is reasonably long.Also confusing when bottom of page is telling me I am not logged on & the top of the page is saying I am.

Thanks. Be sure to check out the main site itself as well at

I'm enjoying reading this thread since the points power question continues to pop up. Is there a link to the main site from the forum site? It would be nice to be able to go there directly from the forum site.

Thx!

No. Registered member (3 posts) is all that's required.

    • A 5400 yd course is not that short for gents driving it 160 yards considering the approach shot lengths they are going to be faced with on Par 4s.  Also, for the course you are referring to I estimate the Par 4s have to average longer than 260 yds, because the Par 5s are 800 yds or so, and if there are four Par 3s averaging 130 the total is 1320 yds.  This leaves 4080 yds remaining for 12 Par 4s.  That is an average of 340 per hole. Anyway, if there are super seniors driving it only 160ish and breaking 80 consistently, they must be elite/exceptional in other aspects of their games.  I play a lot of golf with 65-75 yr old seniors on a 5400 yd course.  They all drive it 180-200 or so, but many are slicers and poor iron players.  None can break 80. I am 66 and drive it 200 yds.  My average score is 76.  On that course my average approach shot on Par 4s is 125 yds.  The ten Par 4s average 313 yds.  By that comparison the 160 yd driver of the ball would have 165 left when attempting GIR on those holes.     
    • I don't think you can snag lpga.golf without the actual LPGA having a reasonable claim to it. You can find a ton of articles of things like this, but basically: 5 Domain Name Battles of the Early Web At the dawn of the world wide web, early adopters were scooping up domain names like crazy. Which led to quite a few battles over everything from MTV.com You could buy it, though, and hope the LPGA will give you a thousand bucks for it, or tickets to an event, or something like that. It'd certainly be cheaper than suing you to get it back, even though they'd likely win. As for whether women and golfers can learn that ".golf" is a valid domain, I think that's up to you knowing your audience. My daughter has natalie.golf and I have erik.golf.
    • That's a great spring/summer of trips! I'll be in Pinehurst in March, playing Pinehurst No. 2, No. 10, Tobacco Road, and The Cradle. 
    • April 2025 - Pinehurst, playing Mid Pines and Southern Pines + 3 other courses. Probably Talamore, Mid-South, and one other.  July 2025 - Bandon Dunes, just me and my dad.
