There's a golf shop about 100 yards on the left before you go into the entrance of Nonsamrong Army golf course.

Went in there today Galee picked him up a couple of clubs,for those who maybe interested it’s a second hand golf shop and he also rents out a set for 200 per day.
Thanks to everyone for the response.

I hope your son enjoys playing.

Hope I'm not teaching you to suck eggs but when taking up the game it's a good idea to get lessons to learn the basics of the game. Grip, posture etc.
My son was about 7 when I bought him a set. All he wanted to do was hit the ball as far as he could. Wouldn't listen, got despondent and gave up quickly.

I do agree, it is best to start any new player with some proper instruction to get off on the right foot. However, after 30+ years I am still guilty of wanting to hit it as far as I can..........

You know how to hit the ball further off the tee every time?

Bourbon seems to be the trick for me. Makes me hit it so far in the trees there is no need to look for it...........
