Hi

Just joined ST and very much enjoying the various threads and posts.  ST contributors are clearly very knowledgeable and fanatical about their  golf.

With the golf season just around the corner in Scotland I am  hoping to take advantage of this by asking if anybody knows if there is a list of accredited teaching pros in the UK. I got lessons off a guy about 5 years ago in Glasgow area who sorted me out big time. Although I have lost his contact details, I remember his name and hope he would be on such a list. I have had lessons from 4 different pros since but none of them make it anything like as simple as he did.

If anybody has any suggestions as to how to locate him I would be grateful.

Hope everything's flying out the middle for you

The only thing I could say is, maybe Mark Crossfield in England can recommend someone, he's fairly famous in the UK. Here's a link to his youtube videos, I couldn't find a e-mail for him, but he's on facebook, and twitter.

The only golf pro I know in Glasgow is Scott Robertson (Google "Scott Robertson Golf" as I'm not sure I'm allowed to link you his website) who I met when he coached at Silvermere Golf Club near me. Could be him or if not him maybe he'd have an idea on who it may be.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
