Hi all,

Was browsing on the forum and due to the fact that there aren't many golf forums in Belgium, I decided to sign up.

Started playing golf a year ago, with my father. We took 5 lessons and did quit due to various reasons. Restarted mid July.

In contrast to America, you just can't buy some clubs and start playing on the championship courses. First you need to be a member of a golfclub, secondly to be allowed on the 18 holes course, you need to get a GVB. With is more or less the same as a driver's license but then for Golf.

Since 3 weeks I'm in the possesion of such a GVB, which gives me the permission to play on the 18 holes course of the home golf club and some other courses. A GVB can be compared with a EGA HC of 54. The next step is getting a HC of 36, from which you are allowed to play almost on all 18 holes courses in Europe.

The HC is dropped according to the stableford points. each SF point above the 54 HC, will decrease the HC with 1,5 point.

Hoping to get some tips on this forums to achieve this.

My biggest problem with golf is time. With a fulltime employment and 2 kids, the youngest only 8 months, time is not on my side.

Cheers,

Dremeber

Good to have ya bro

Just started here myself.

Time (and money) is always an issue with golf - especially if you're looking to play 18 holes. I imagine it'd be ever harder for you though - I'm single and don't have two kids

    • The 2026 Thread is here:
    • Just like the 2022, 2021, 2020, 2023, 2024, and 2025 topics, we're doing it again in 2026! Once again, I'd like to birdie every hole at Whispering Woods in 2026 (and maybe every numbered hole on other courses). I'd like you to join me on this quest. This year's spreadsheet is below: 2026 TST Birdie Challenge - Google Sheets   Please click through, add your name, home course, and location, and when you make a score on the holes as you play them, update your line in the spreadsheet with your ringer score, basically. The idea is to score a birdie or better on each hole on the course this year. If you're above a certain handicap and would like to make it a par challenge, go for it! Just add that note to the Notes column. Please leave the formatting as is. And note that you only write down one score - if you birdie a hole three times, you aren't writing down -3. It's just your best individual score for each hole. We can all cheer each other on and see where this takes us! If you truly play a TON of different courses, then follow these two guidelines: If you just play a lot of golf, but still get 20 or 25 (or more) rounds in on one course, consider making that your home course and just doing the birdie challenge there. If you truly play only 20-40 rounds per year, and never more than a handful at the same course, consider trying to birdie holes numbered 1 to 18 across all of your courses. Or even doing it twice. Yeah, some hole #17s will be easier birdies than others, but that's why you might do it twice.
