I have been searching this board for some golf information without a whole lot of success. I realize that golf has gotten very popular Thailand and that a lot of mongers go there for both the golf and the ho's.
Does anyone out there have any information on any discount programs that you can purchase or particpate in that would provide you with discounted greens fees and access to multiple quality golf courses in the Bangkok or Pattaya areas? How can one link up with other golfers visiting Thailand (I am not with a group) so they can play golf together (or local expat(s) as well)?
Do most courses have club rentals and if so what is their quality? Is it better to just bring your own clubs with you? Are tee times difficult to obtain in mid February or can you just pretty much show up and get on the course? Any courses that you might recommend in the Bangkok or Pattaya areas (for both price and quality)? Any information will be greatly appreciated as I am totally unfamiliar the local golf scene in Bangkok or Pattaya.
Just for a matter of interest, some chancer is selling guided "confidence" (sex) with women tours on Ebay!
(In Thailand)
Check out the link...its hilarious!

Dan Da Man,Skinless Are you sure Thai Girls have big Tits and Big Butts? E Mail me some pics. Hey you all help out DAvid 33 I think he will be in Thailand in march,,,,,, Later NIBU R....
Nibu: As I told you on the Peru Other Sections, in Thailand, Japan etc, we are playing with big numbers, lotsa ladies. Therefore, there are plenty of well endowed wmen to fuck for those into it. If you go to Bkk, check out Grace Hotel or anywhere where our African and Arab bros hang out as they like em big. Most honkeys seem to believe the best bonks come in small packages; I waver between the two camps. I only go to LOS to fuck their women and work off whatever fantasies are preoccupying me. It rejuvinates me, knowing I can fuck as many beauties as I want and all for chump change. Beyond fucking as many women as I can, I have no interest in visiting Thailand or most any other place as I do not see the point. However, I am not into porno as I find it boring and I am a hands on guy; therefore I do not tote cameras and am no use to you in that regard. I am not currently asosicated with the Skinless band in NYC. I hope this information suffices for the moment as I do not want to rack up the number of my posts. I shall be in LOS in a few week's time and I might check out the Grace elephants. However, I currently have a longing on me for Burmese pussy. I feel I need to fuck more of them. I also want to do more gang bangs and, in that regard, I feel smaller is better, easier to handle, like good mountain bikes.
To Toosh,
I used to live in Thailand and still visit the country regulary. I am also a very keen golfer and can tell you, that Thailand is a golfers paradise. Here are some anwers to your questions. The courses are fantastic and reasonably priced particurly in week days and in Pattaya region. Discount cards are available, but in order to get any real benefit you would need to stay in Thailand a longer period of time. If you just visit the country for a week or two it is not worthwhile. I don't think you will have any difficulty to get the tee off times at any time you want. At weekends in Bangkok are the courses can get very busy, but in Pattaya and in week days it is certainly not any problem. Green fees vary usually between 1000 - 2500 baht depending of the course and day.
Some good courses near Bangkok: Lake Wood, Muang Kaew, Green Valley (all towards Pattaya and within a taxi ride distance), Natural Park (ex Winsan), President Club, Bangkok Golf Club.
Pattaya: Laem Chabang, Siam Country Club, Phoenix, Panya Hill Natural Park
Club rental is available at each club house, but I would recommend to bring your own as the quality varies a lot.
There are a lot of golf tourists in Thailand at that time of the year, so you'll most probably meet other golfers in your hotel with whom you could play. I am a Scandinavian and used to play there with other Scandinavians. They also have a web- site through which you could possibly seek some playing companions. Try

greatscandi,
Thanks. The information is GREATLY appreciated. For years I have heard the golf is great in the LOS and have wanted to go. In fact, at the risk of being sacrilegious here, I think I maybe looking forward to the golf more than anything else. Well, maybe.
Wyhats Golfing got to do with Sex Hunting???
Are Master Charge money cards used in BKK? Any problems or unusual charges associated with them?
Thanks

Recent troubles in Cambodia, Thai respons,
Gentlemen,
After recent unrest in PhnomPhen the Thai govt have cancelled ALL ties with Cambodia.
ALL checkpoints to/from Cambodia are closed for Cambodians.
If you need a visa extension it may be wise to go to Malaysia, not to Cambodia. You may not get in, or when you're in, you may not get out...
The situation on the Myanmar border isn't very stable either...
So: For all your visa needs, turn to Malaysia!
I'll be in the LOS later this month and was considering bringing my notebook with me for use during non mongering hours. How bad of an idea is this? Does the benefit of having the computer available for internet, DVDs and downloading photos from my camera out weigh the security risks?
Is there a problem going through customs with an notebook?
If there’s anyone out there who has brought their notebook to the LOS any guidance you can provide will be appreciated.
Thanks.
Are there still good bargains in pirated software in Pantip Plaza? Does the MX stuff work ok or has Bill Gates put paid to that? Also, what else is worth buying in Bangkok? I am not into porno or presents or bs tourist stuff. I have noted Jackson's tailoring message and might indulge myself there. But any other suggestions? I feel I should spend as much on me as I do on the ladies as I have to work hard and they get paid for fucking me but I do not get paid for fucking them.
Sparky: Joe_Zop might be of use. I guess it depends how and where you are traveling.
First, on the laptop side of things, as long as you list it coming in and make it clear that it's for your personal use, you shouldn't have any problem. Generally, the value exceeds the basics of what you're allowed to bring in without being specific, so you should just make sure you put down all the stuff you're bringing in to avoid any hassles. In my case, bringing in a laptop, digital camera, PDA and one of the more expensive MP3 players, this cost me all of one minute of explanatory talk at the airport. Simple enough.
That said, I brought my laptop because I needed it for my work. If not for that, I'd not bother, honestly. I found dialup connections underwhelming in terms of their efficiency, and expensive overall because I kept getting dropped connections. It's simpler and generally faster to go to an internet cafe for email or the web. You can go to a photo shop and have them burn the photos from your camera onto a CD easily and cheaply enough, and lugging a laptop just to watch DVDs seems a waste.
I was underwhelmed this time at Pantip in terms of the quality and price of the selections, though the touts were as aggressive as ever, of course. I spent several hours looking around, and just saw very little that I felt like investing in. Lots of the hardware was far more expensive than what I'd pay in the states, and plenty of the software was simply outdated pirated crap. (In the spirit of full disclosure, however, let me note that I've already got a cheap source of software so the kinds of things I was looking for were a bit off the beaten path, so YMMV.)
As far as buying things in Bangkok, clothes, jewelry and accessories seem the top things from my perspective. Tons of basically touristy junk floating around, and it can be fun to do the weekend or floating markets, but outside of that I don't know that there's a lot you might be looking for -- anything heavy is gonna cost you a fortune in shipping, and most of the stuff you see in the main areas is the same stuff you see anywhere. LOS is a great place to buy spices if you're someone who cooks, though, and I definitely stocked up on those.
