Any recommendations?

I found golfplan.co.uk, but that looks pricey for what you get.

Cheers,

I think I was with GolfPlan for a couple of years, but then my club
started to bundle insurance in with our subs, so I stopped the
separate cover as it seemed to largely duplicate that which was then
free.

The various plans all seemed to be much of a muchness in price and
cover terms. It's peace of mind, really - you will find your
household cover already covers many losses or liabilities one way or
another.

If the insurance is bundled in with the subs, how is it free???

Careful with liability cover - read the small print to see what you
are getting. A lot of liability cover (especially those sold with
household policies) only pays out when a successful action is taken
against you in a court of law. Some policies will pay out on a "good
neighbour" basis - meaning they pay out before it gets to that stage.
An example of that may during the Sunday morning medal when you slice
a drive into the car park denting the Captain's nice new BMW. Under
those circumstances it is always better to have a "good neighbour"
liability policy rather than saying sue me first and then my insurance
company will pay out.

I don't have any liability insurance. Is this a real issue or are we just
being conned into being a litigious society by those who stand to make money
out of it; the insurance companies and the lawyers ?

It's like most insurances - totally unnecessary until the unthinkable
happens. I have liability insurance as part of a golf insurance
policy that covers my clubs from theft. I thought they were covered
on my house contents insurance for "all risks" (under the £2.5k limit)
on any unspecified item. Then I read the small print and ended up
buying a specific Golf insurance policy which happens to have
liability cover.

Not a recommendation, as I am not a customer, but a leaflet fell out
of my golf mag this month:

www.golfcare.co.uk/promo

Minimum cover is £22.49 which looks quite adequate for most people.

IIRC, a good tenner less than Golfplan.
