Hi all, just a post out of interest really more than anything. My girlfriend and I are heading out to Australia in July 2015 for a 6 week break to do some city hopping and general travelling (not the backpacker type). We haven't got any rock solid plans of living and working in Australia but it is something we have spoken about and I guess we are using this trip to see if the way of life is different and we can acclimatise to it? I am 27 and a fully qualified British PGA Golf Professional, and have been for the last 4 years. I guess my first line of questioning would be; what is the current economic situation with golf in Australia? Would you say there is much scope for a British qualified professional? I am fully aware there is an Australian version of the qualification I have and I guess that most golf clubs are inclined to hire home based professionals as opposed to overseas applicants. Would I be best landing in Australia and doing some "recce" work with golf clubs in different states to put the feelers out? Or would it be wise to send a couple of emails closer to the time?:wideeyed: Any advice or help would be massively appreciated, thank you in advance Lee :smile:

I play golf regularly (not very good) need to meet people that are up for a game now and again, getting a bit boring playing on my own. anyone out there? Danny

I was wondering if anyone might be interested in meeting up for a game of golf now and then. It would be a great way to meet new friends and have a good chin wag, after all, is this the weather for golf or is this the weather for golf !!!!

Hi there, we are due to arrive on Gold Coast on 17th Novemeber and wondered if there were any keen golfers out there who could recommend good courses or meet up with OH for a round or two ! Also any golf widows that may fancing meeting up - would be grateful to meet some new friends. Cheers, Alison & Alastair Harry 10, Georgia 7 & Charlie 4
