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

    • Day 24: did a stack session. Worked a bit on downswing feels during breaks. 
    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
