I think you will get one for £25- £30 on amazon etc, def no need to spend some of the prices on that link.
I'm a bit of a sucker for youtube instruction vids and the board is quite useful for trying out the ideas, and quite quickly working out whether they are going to lead to a more consistent strike.
I jut took out a 5 day membership of a nearby club. It is quite long though (in seniors terms) at 6800 yards from the back tees and was an open qualifying venue in the early naughties, but the main advantage is that I can put a few clubs in a pencil bag and play a nine holes. I think that is more fun than a basket of balls at the range.

I've not been in these comps for a while, but I think the NR/random horse thing is more about the last day, when if someone is well behind they are probably selecting longer priced horses, so a fav isn't really helping them. A random horse at least gives them a chance that the fav wouldn't.

That is nothing compared to the apparently now universal practice of putting some semi-spoilers at the beginning of a tv programme. (And sometimes full spoilers from previous episodes, without any regard for viewers who haven't seen them yet).
Viewers of "Fake or Fortune" know how the show goes. They don't need to see, first of all, segments of previous shows, depicting hopefuls getting fortuned or facked. They also don't need to see, in advance, bits of the show they have chosen to watch, as if, they have such a short attention span, that they might turn off if not assured that they are going to be presented with the kind of twists and turns they have come to expect.
And don't get me started on golf. I am watching the abc masters which is taking place at the same time as the xyz open. I will watch the highlights of the xyz open later. Or would have done, if the presenter of the abc masters hadn't interrupted the coverage of the event he is being paid to present, to tell me what was happening at the xyz open. What the actual fuck? Does he think that there are people in the world who are watching and who desperately want to know what is going on at the xyz open and have no way to find out?
On a lighter TV note - "Bob Monkhouse:The Last Stand" on iplayer was pretty good I thought.

Think they might accept us players? They also have bonuses for volume.
They are actually regulated by the uk gambling commission, and really should have their license suspended over this, but as that organisation has done utterly nothing to protect players of all types in its near two decades of existence......
