House Rules, In Prose

How we keep the floor civil.

For twenty-seven years this forum has been a working argument between golfers who actually play the game — the weekend foursome, the 22-handicapper grinding to break 90, the scratch player who can tell a 6-iron's smash factor at the range. The site is peer-to-peer. Nobody here is your licensed club-fitter, your TPI-certified medical professional, or your swing coach with malpractice insurance. Take the gear recommendations as starting points for your own research; take the swing advice as one player's data against yours. If something hurts, see a doctor; if a club doesn't fit, see a fitter.

What we do have is forty-one volunteer moderators — all scratch or plus-handicap golfers, all LPA-certified — who keep the floor open and the personal attacks out. Threads get closed when they stop being about golf. Members get warnings when they cross the line. Banners get muted for a week when they deserve it. We do not sell your data, we do not run third-party trackers, and we have not since the 2016 member referendum that voted ad-tracking out. The site is funded by a $24 lifetime membership and a small affiliate cut from the Pro Shop. That's the whole economic model. There is no second one hidden behind a cookie banner.

If you want to argue a 6-footer at 1 a.m. with strangers who will actually know the difference between a 5-wood and a 7-wood, you are home.
