If I can borrow some clubs, and you promise not to laugh at me, then I'm up for it.

Dave C and Matt are keen golfists too, so I dare say you've got four already.

Bought that PS2 game with the little club and the gametrak thing last week.

I'm now a digital Tiger Woods, but somehow don't think it's gonna translate itself to PGA levels once I'm stood on a proper tee....

Can you get buggies with PPP?

Who needs PPP . . I can show you how to drift a golf buggy

As a few are interested I'll look into the costs etc . . any of the golfers that have posted have any preference for courses? I was thinking a pay and play, as the golfing newbies will be without golf shoes etc.

http://www.leedsgolfcentre.com

Its a pay and play, although we do need to book tee times. £18.50 Monday to Friday, but discounted to £14.00 after 3pm which maybe the best idea as people don't have to miss a days work.

They have a dress code, which is basically smart polo shirt, trousers . . no jeans, tracksuits etc. They said for those without golf shoes to wear normal shoes - no trainers tho!

Anyone have any ideal times to play? I'll start the list and give it a few days (gives me time to practise ) then arrange to book some times.

If anyone has any other suggestions for courses let me know.

Hope all goes well but I shan't be joining you.

I know where you're coming from Barry, but it's not like they're asking us to wear plus-fours, knee-high tartan socks and Pringle butt-plugs. A reasonable dress-code to deter the tracksuit wearers can only be a good thing.

Must admit I'm with Barry Clarkson on this one. Only ever wear 'trousers and shoes' for weddings, funerals and court appearances.

Another option could be Temple Newsam ... they have two 18 hole courses, £9.50 a round, no dress code

Maybe this would be better?
