Phuket, Let’s Golf

Twelve blokes. Four countries. One week in Thailand. Zero chance of behaving… and one man desperate to feel alive again.

Bruce is fifty-something, freshly divorced, and stuck in rainy Yorkshire where even the sheep look miserable. Golf is his last refuge — until he realises what he really needs is sunshine, adventure, and a reminder that life isn’t over yet. His answer? A lads’ golf trip to Phuket.

But this isn’t just any trip. Alongside the usual suspects, Bruce ropes in:

Pete, already living in Thailand (and already in trouble).

Stu, flying in from Hong Kong — a man deadly serious about golf and equally deadly serious about drinking. He’ll play eighteen holes like a pro, then spend the nineteenth arguing that Guinness is basically a recovery shake.

Josh, the Dubai high-roller who thinks “synergy” is a personality.

What follows is an international midlife circus: hangovers that qualify as medical emergencies, WhatsApp evidence that could end marriages, one mother who hijacks the group chat to call them all perverts, and a dubious mango seller whose side hustle should probably come with a health warning.

Yet beneath the chaos, Bruce and the lads discover something more. This isn’t just about chasing birdies or bad decisions — it’s about brotherhood, belly laughs, and realising that sometimes the trip you didn’t know you needed is the one that saves you.

Phuket – Let’s Golf is outrageous, laugh-out-loud, and secretly heartfelt — the story of twelve men, eighteen holes, infinite mistakes… and one unforgettable reminder of what friendship really means.

Fore! Fore the laughs. Fore the madness. Fore the meaning.
