A few pointers for you if playing in Hua Hin has lessened your concentration and ability...

1. BACK STRAIGHT, KNEES BENT, FEET SHOULDER WIDTH APART.

2. FORM A LOOSE GRIP..

3. KEEP YOUR HEAD DOWN!

4. AVOID A QUICK BACK SWING.

5. STAY OUT OF THE WATER.

6. TRY NOT TO HIT ANYONE.

7. IF YOU ARE TAKING TOO LONG, LET OTHERS GO AHEAD OF YOU.

8. DON'T STAND DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF OTHERS.

9. QUIET PLEASE...WHILE OTHERS ARE PREPARING.

10. DON'T TAKE EXTRA STROKES.

WELL DONE... NOW, FLUSH THE URINAL, WASH YOUR HANDS AND GO OUTSIDE, AND TEE OFF.

Anyone know the ticket price to the Royal Trophy event and where to get them?
My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?

Think the Royal Trophy is 1000baht per day - factor in that The Masters is free and I think its a great deal!

I just checked the Royal Trophy website, and whilst the Asian team seems quite strong, it looks like the Euro team are short on players. The VIP ticket is an interesting deal including breakfast, lunch, dinner, and beverages for the entire day, as well as VIP parking and VIP villa access (...but for B6,800 for 1 day).

I played a couple of mid week games at Springfield earlier this week...first game there since early October.
Played A/C and A/B. The A/B courses are currently looking the best I've seen them in a few years. Thanks to all the rain in Oct/Nov the lakes are finally full with water again. Although the course was busy, we managed to finished both games in about 4 hours.

Agree 100% SF plays so much better when the lakes are full, would be great if Lake View could get into decent condition, its a super layout too.

Hi. I'm a Swede newbee in this forum and apologize in advance if my request is posted in wrong topic, but..
My wife and our closest couples has bought me (and they comes along) a golftrip to Hua Hin on my 60 birthday. I've played most of the courses around Pattaya (me and the wife has been members in IPGC and joined Lewinskies great groups) and really loves the atmospher on Thai courses. Never been in Hua Hin and really need some advice.
Both wich courses to play - plan to play 8-10 rounds during our 2w stay and the best way to book.
If I'm asking in wrong topic, please tellme where to post my questions.

Thank's Johan but what's the best way to book tee-time? Is there any societies we can join or should we make it by our self?
