Golfing in Poland

Currently in the US , the Masters golf tournament is in progress. Is this much of a sport in Poland?

It's popular in summer..

South Africa puts out some good golfers as in Trevor who just won the Masters.

It's becoming more and more popular although relative to most other countries the sport is still in its infancy here. There are about ten 18 hole courses in the whole of Poland, a new one was announced last week to be built near Konstancin south of Warsaw.

lol.. golf isn't a sport man no matter where it's plaid.

lol..it is.... it seemed easy and boring to me at the beginning, but when i tried that, it was fun, hard to do and i was sore the next day... :)

LOL nothin like some ol school knickers :)

Check here if you want to find some courses.

walking in a park will do that too and it's way cheaper and hassle free.. still not a sport, sorry. :)

Oh I don't know. I remember a round in Canada once where I visited a few woods and had to run screaming from Elk and Black Bears. The kids thought it was great sport.

oh, Szar, why all those things happen to you:)???? not me.

On the serius note I would play because i like the green grass and the vast spaces. It could be physical too IMO.

Aww you know me.... a bit of poetic license. The bears were about 100 metres away and the Elk was more scared than me.

Back on topic - I used to play at the First Warsaw Golf & Country Club. Average course with loads of biting insects I recall. The vast majority of the members appeared to be Korean but there were some very good Polish golfers there too.

I play quite often at the Pierwszy Lubelski Klub Golfowy in fact this weekend we have a tournament, first one of the year.

The weather must be improving there or this thread woud be bare. The courses here are to wet. There are at least 15 within 20 minutes of me alone. There are 470 golf courses in the state of Indiana .

really yard? IN is about 1/3 the size of PL and all my buddies have been golfing for about a month now.

Lucky . It has been abnormally wet here as of late. There is golf occasionally through the winter where they set up greens on the fairways. The season has not started as it should have here. Just to wet.

Anyone in Gdynia fancy a round anytime. Brought my clubs but not broken them in yet

Some day I would like to hit a golf ball arrround the world from country to country Then I would say I had the worlds longest drive .Hitting across the ocean could be a challenge.

True - I have yet to find a make of ball that is not fatally attracted to water

I once hit five balls in the water on an island par three!
