What Weekend Golfers Is

Weekend Golfers is my place to record and share the golf I actually experience.

I’m Steve King, an ordinary club golfer based in Wiltshire. I write about the rounds and competitions I play, the things I work on in practice, golf courses I visit, equipment I use and my experiences caddying for PGA Professional Chris Tyson.

You’ll also find free golf coaching from PGA Professional Richard Lawless.

Built For Ordinary Golfers

Weekend Golfers isn’t built around having golf completely worked out.

I’m still trying things, changing things, getting some of them right and occasionally getting them spectacularly wrong.

That’s part of playing golf.

If something I experience, learn or discover helps another golfer along the way, even better.

MORE THAN JUST MY SCORECARD

GOLF FROM DIFFERENT SIDES

Playing my own golf is only one part of Weekend Golfers.

Practice gives me somewhere to work on things before taking them onto the course. Caddying for Tyce has given me a completely different view of competitive golf. Richard’s coaching provides another perspective again.

Together, they give me plenty to explore, test and write about.
